New from Seattle

#1 Unread post by DogJet »

Hi guys, just found this forum today and have been reading for the last couple hours. I've been riding for about 2 months after passing my MSF class in August.

Here's my bike (and my cat):

Image

Its a '92 ghetto-fabulous ZX6D that isn't very pretty but starts up strong and runs great for being a 13 year old bike. I'm already thinking about getting one of those 650Rs when they arrive next year, as my ZX6 has plenty of power for me but I'd like a newer bike. I'm guessing the power should be pretty similar but I'll have to find out with a test ride.

Anyway happy riding.

-Scott

you could spray paint it. I had a buddy that had a problem with squirels getting in his attack so he set out a trap, catch it and take it to the park. Only to have the same problem in less than a week. He was convinced it was the same one that just found its way back to his house. So he spray painted it "safety orange" and set it free in the park to see if it would come back. It didn't, but now the park has a florecent orange squirel! So everyone wins.

BTW welcome

Heh nope cat doesn't ride. He doesn't seem too interested in my new helmet either:
