From Chicago
« on: June 05, 2008, 01:34:25 PM »
Hello to all  ;D

I'm a 22 year old from chicago and have been in the motorcycle world for the last 3 years. I started by buying my 77' Honda CB550k. I then bought a 99' Ninja 250 and currently riding my 07' Yamaha R1. I learned to ride on the Honda and quickly moved to the ninja. The main reason i did that was because I was leaking gas from one of my exhaust pipes on the Honda.

So after about a year and a half of the Honda sitting there. It time to get her up and running. I have worked on my R1 and feel very comfortable working on the bikes.  :) So the reason i joined up is to get help from the experts on getting my carbs right and any other misc. things with my Honda.

Ill keep it short for now and talk to you all soon  ;D
