Default Introduction

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,

My name is Pete, and I'm a new Forum member. I bought a 93 CBR1000F last year, and am loving it. I started riding at a late age, when I turned 51 years old. I'm 53 now. My son began riding, and it motivated me to do the same. Better late than never! I started out with a 2009 Ninja 650, but immediately began aching for an older liter bike. The chug chug chug of a parallel twin was not what I was looking for. I wanted the smoothness of a 4 banger. So I did some research and found the 90's CBR1000F. I fell in love with it's looks, and knew that was what I wanted. I found this one up in Michigan. It was in pretty good shape, but needed a few things to get it up to snuff. I ride as often as I can, and am enjoying it tremendously.

I'm looking forward to being part of your community!
