Newbie from Cali !
« on: August 30, 2007, 09:44:19 AM »
Hello everyone !! Just recently got my K6 running and I could not believe how much I enjoy driving this thing compared to the other bikes I've owned. I'm currently slowly working on it mechanically and cosmetically hopefully transforming it into a pretty cool looking cafe racer bike someday. This site is full of great looking bikes and has given me lots of ideas for my project. Hope to meet and ride with some of you folks out there ! Have a wonderful day everyone !!! :)
