Hey there! I'm a new motorcycle owner/rider (just in time for winter!). I completed an MSF course and have been in the process of acquiring my new baby for a while now, but I think I can now safely say that on Wednesday the DMV and I will come together in unison and harmony, the title will be put in my name, and it'll fully be mine!
I'm originally from Tempe, AZ, but am currently a student (studying environmental biology and geology) at Beloit College, in Wisconsin. I thought that, as a senior, it was time to fulfill my dream of getting a bike! I was looking for cycles in the Beloit area and just happened to find a 1977 CB550 on craigslist (located right on campus!). I basically fell in love with it immediately. The perfect size (actual size and cc), well ridden but cared for (I love older bikes with character), even my favourite colour!. I was really happy to find out that there was a whole large community devoted to these types of beauties. I'm excited to finally be introducing myself!
There are, obviously, a few small things that need to be fixed, but other than those... it starts every time, runs well, shifts well... a little more love and it'll be great!
