    Howdy. I'm Paul and I live in Arizona, US. I recently acquired a 1985 Virago XV1000 from a family member. The bike is in beautiful condition, having been very well taken care of since new. I also ride a 150cc scooter. Glad to have found this forum and look forward to learning from everybody on here. Thanks.

    Greatings. Just recently moved to Perris, CA. The previous tenant of the house we are renting left behind a '77 KX750D. Looks like it sat outside for a year. Covered with dust and Black Widow spiders. It seems to have good compresion and only 8,250 miles on the clock. Should be an interesting restoration (my other projects are Honda CB's) and a nice sidecar setup.

    hi all im new to the site and thought id say hello been riding bikes since i was 8 and now 42 ive had loads of bikes over the years some 2 strokes and 4 stroke up to 1000cc i like doing bikes up and then selling them not for profit just for fun ,i was on the forum sportsbikes.co.uk but got told to leave and blocked because i asked the one who calls himself the boss a question about the rules which he didnt like but i was never rude which i cant say about him ,any way my idea of a forum is people talk about problems and help if they can and if some one has bits they dont want they can sell to help others out so look forward in talking to the members on here thanks gary

    Hello Everyone, New to the Fazer Family I passed my test yesterday and had my 06 fazer waiting for me at the local dealership but they didn't think I'd pass so they didn't have it ready for me so now I've got to wait till 15:30 tomorrow before I can go and pick it up Damn Dealerships lol anyway are there any decent runs going on in the area as I wanna give it a blast it's only got 398 on the clock so it's barely even run in yet plus i think it's been sitting for a while (i know at least three weeks as that's how long they've been holding it for me) give me a shout back if you know of any runs going on Cheers Vilethor
