TheGreatMrGonzo Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Very new to all of this forum stuff, but been after a descent website to join to for a while, so here goes nuttin'!: I'm Ben, still a bit of a toddler at the mere age of 19. Currently riding/rebuilding a '92 XJ 600 (The naked air cooled model). I'm part of an MCC - Streetfighters Cheshire MCC. All bikes customised are a specialty. Now I know a lot of people don't like the idea of a Streetfightered motorcycle but everyone is entitled to their own likes and others, their opinions, but that doesn't hold me against any other type of bike at all. City & Guilds qualified Engineer and training IMI Motorcycle Mechanic, I can usually help with most faults with bikes (but nothing extensive in electrical theory/components - Never understood electrics much) so give me a shout if anything may be troubling you.
