New member from Kern County, CA
« on: September 20, 2015, 05:31:09 PM »
How's it going everyone! Name is Cory, age is 21 years young and currently a Machine Operator at a pvc shop. Been a long time motorcycle enthusiast. Started out racing motocross all over California and for some reason Honda has always been the bike in the garage. Injuries took me out of the sport, bought a Honda shadow for my last two years of High school. Moved and the bike was sold... 

Long story short I recently purchased a new condo, WITH A GARAGE!! So building a bike has always been one of those things I've wanted to take on as a challenge. And based off personality and style I've decided to build a Cafe Racer. Have a 1978 CB750f that is a diamond in the rough. Other hobbies include fish tanks and traveling with the old dachshund and a little photography. Looking forward to learning as much as possible and hopefully get to the point where I can contribute some info for others. Thanks you 8)

I see a clown fish....
I wonder, is his hobby collecting fish tanks, or the fish within them?  :) Maybe he doesn't realize there's a fish lurking in the tank pictured?

I love the picture of the camera. Always makes me wonder, "How the heck did a camera take a selfie???"

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis

It's a classic, the AE-1.  It's like a magic trick, done with mirrors!
