Any Motorcycle Enthusiest?

Hi, new member around here. I just came from the 350z crowd over to Subaru and while I am excited about getting to modding I spend most of my time on 2 wheels. So any other fellow riders out there? I am have been heavy into the hobby for the past 6 years and have been working in the motorcycle industry for the last 2.

Bikes owned:
90 CBR600F Hurricane
2005 Harley Sporster
2005 GSX-R1000 K5
2004 CBR600F4i
2005 CBR1000RR Repsol Edition

soybean, I think I've seen you post on BARF. I'm LiquidONE on BARF.

Been through 13 bikes in about 6 years - didn't crash them all, just got bored, upgraded, etc. Been mostly with Yamaha having had five R6's, three R1's, an RC51, FZR600, F4i, Kawi ZX6r and my pride and joy was my Aprilia Mille R trackbike.

I wrenched on all my bikes and had a hydraulic lift, compressor, air tools, etc in my garage. The good ol' days before marriage and a kid. I can still help wrench if people need help.

Indeed, I did used to post on BARF. However I got tired of that place after a few years. Too much *****ing and not enough riding.

Riding for around 5yr.

Trying to figure out how many years it will be before I have enough cash saved to buy an '09 or '10 CBR1000RR. The prices just seem to keep going up. I remember when I bought my first bike, and a liter bike was around $9,899. In the meantime I am happy to have a bike that is fully paid off, and plenty of fun. Now about this rain.....
