Hi Just want to say hello. Im a long time rider who just got back into riding after many years away, Im a semi- Disabled vietnam veteran so Im kinda on a budget. I started back with a Ninja 250 I got cheap with a blown engine, repaired It and then found a ninja 500 with a bad starter clutch I repaired it. I have just picked up a katana 600 that needs some work If I can get the for around $500 Bucks and get them running I happy. Im a little rusty riding so I dont want a real fine bike yet but I took the MSF class this summer and my riding is getting better each ride. I live out side of Pittsburgh,Pa In Washington, pa I have many intrests Im into firearms Ar-15 Aks sig sauer pistols and I reload my own ammo. Some day i hope to find a nice uase Hayabusa but for now Ill be Ninja Katana guy.Great site I like that you have raffles it shoul be fun. Ride safe!
