Hello everyone, I'm Dan... new guy on here, sorta. I've been around for a little while now, so I figured I should say hi.
History:
Started riding about 3 years ago (May/June 2002) when I picked up a 96 Yamaha FZR600 with 11k miles for my first bike. http://www.umassk12.net/~dpulaski/My_Bike2.jpg Great bike to start on. I rode that for almost a year before taking the MSF class at Barnes in Westfield. Bike was sold in July of 2003 for financial reasons. Total milage from me: appx. 5500
Recently picked up my 2nd bike, a 2001 CBR 929RR http://www.umassk12.net/~dpulaski/9avb.jpg from a member here. Quite a step up from the old 600. I've put about 1200 miles on it so far. Since buying it, I've removed a bunch of stickers, replaced a peeling tank pad, rewired the tail, replaced the rear blinkers (I realize they are not shown in that pic) and removed that metal filter thing from the holes in the fairings. Currently waiting on a Puig dark smoke DB screen and Vortex frame sliders. Also getting SS brake lines and EBC HH pads this weekend if the weather holds out.
I consder myself a moderately decent rider, and ride accordingly. I'm not a stranger to fairly quick rides through the twisties, however, you won't see me dragging knees either.
