Snakebite68

Hey guys, Just saying hello... Name: Paul, but I go by Snakebite. Bike: YZF1000R Thunderace. Biker Status: Returning biker (2 years on the 5th of January) (now fully legal!) Mechanical Status: Competent Amateur. Skill Level: Still Alive and haven't dropped it yet... I never know what to write in these things. I want to do more of my own mechanicals, but without a garage, the Ace being my primary mode of transport and my 'drive' being composed of tailings, it's not easy. Our lass and me are looking for a house to buy at the moment, so I'm hopeful for a decent garage soon! Theoretically, I'm capable of doing a complete strip down of my bike (not including the actual engine) but I'm afraid to get too deep into it in case I can't get it back together in time for me needing it for work! lol I have no biker friends anymore, they've all grown up and got cars..! So it's been hard for me to get back into riding, I have no rider friends to bounce ideas off and regulate my riding techniques... If anyone has any questions, I'm happy to answer... I will no doubt post some pictures of the Ace at some point! P.S. So far, I ride all year round (thought that sounded important to mention... lol).
