Howdy from Los Angeles
 

Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I've been posting on here for a little bit, but finally took some Iphone photos of my bike when my buddy and I went up to Malibu earlier today.

It's a 2004 F4i, I bought it last month, it had 3800 miles on it, all stock. We added Two Brothers carbon fiber pipes and love them!

I've been riding on and off for 20 years. I had friends who used to race, and I used to ride all the time. This is my first bike that I have owned. Just took the MSF course this week, getting my paperwork shortly so I will have my M1 in a week or so.

I love the banana seat, because I am taller then average, and this bike feels the most natural out of the dozens I sat on to try and find just the right bike for me.

Put on a few hundred miles in the last couple weeks, and am loving it!

Just wanted to say hi and if there are any Los Angeles or South Bay based riders who want to hook up, give me a shout out!
