Hi from Wisconsin
« on: March 13, 2010, 09:17:13 AM »
Hello, I'm a 19 year old from southern Wisconsin.  Ive been riding dirt bikes most of my life, started on a little Suzuki 50cc bike haha.  Right now i ride a 1978 honda cb750k8 that i had for 3 years now.  Its my first "real" street bike, and love it greatly.  Right now the bike is missing a few things, and has a few things from other bikes, but its been like that for awhile now and has not had problems at all, but i do need to get a new left front turn signal cover, because someone broke it >:( (not me lol). Well, here are some pics of the bike:

we sang it in high school for a program and it stuck with me. ;)  Without going into too much detail, I'm from Waupaca County originally- so 2-3 hrs west of Green Bay, 2 hours north of Madison, and 3ish hours southwest of Amish country.
