Well I'm new here obviously, can't remember if I posted the day I joined or not but if so here's my intro with pics.
Bike info:
2004 gsx600f katana with close to 10,000 miles on it
I picked it up from a mechanic for 2450 with three sets of brake pads, an hjc helment, afx helment,some gloves, cleaning supplies, oil, and a SS jacket.
So I'd say I got an ok deal, the guy was going through a child custody hearing and I'd just got back from dealing with that.
My names Derrik, I'm 18 a father and I just graduated high school working full time at BMW manufacturing. I have a little boy who was born 6/24/09 named Aaron Cam but we just call him Cam. Since he was born I worked almost full time and finished school at the top of my class. Now at work I basically do the rear interior of the X5's and X6 as well as the hatch. Or did until I tore my rotator cuff at work. Found out it was actually torn two days after I picked up my Katana
I've gotten to ride the bike in the yard and in the neighborhood a few times but other than that not much yet due to my injury and no license nor motorcycle safety course yet.
Really never thought about bikes until I just about went crazy from the thought of having my son taken away from me, then I realized you only live once and as long as your careful and its not your time God won't take you away. After realizing that my buddy got a bike and then I started looking into them and saw financially theyre alot cheaper than my other hobby... a bridgeport first gen rx7 built strictly for road courses. That and the Rx7 gets maybe 14mpg on a good day...
well I'm gonna shut up now
I'm just hyper from a few energy drinks and being bored at home due to seeing a surgeon tomorrow to get an idea for the hurt shoulder fix.
well heres the pictures.
oh and if anyone could help me out I'd like to know how to adjust the levers since my hands are smaller than the previous owner, it feels like i'm over stretching my hands just to reach the levers.
