New here, hello
Hi, this is stoppie, I have had 4 cbrs thus far, 600f2,929,954,08 1000, and numerous other bikes.
I have been browsing the forums and was not able to look at pics and give my suggestions so now I am logged in.
I have been riding the street for 28 years, I am 43 years of age , I have been riding dirt for less time but only cause I quit about 10 years ago.
I have worked as a mechanic for the afm club races and the AMA superbike series also.
By trade I am an aircraft mechanic and just generally like fixing things.
I just got rid of my 954 and purchased a new 2008 cbr1000.
It is as of now two weeks old and has 1300 miles on her, I did the evotech undertail,yosh slipon,and am waiting for my retarded thingy and powercommander and then will have a custom tune done.
I know alot of info but I like to give a proper introduction.

That's good to hear mate ...
I wasn't having a go BTW ... lol it just looks a bit hairy in bare arms ..
I used to do what we called " Demos " for the group that I rode with for over 10 years way back ... In my mind I was a bit of a star ..LOL
I was in our group ,one of the best stunters in the day ...
The only prob was that over the years , I had the unfortunate experience of throwing a few wheelies a touch over to far and a couple of fairly nasty rolling burn outs high side me ...with the result being a red face as well as a red ***, to say nothing of the 3 sets of tanks and fairing replacements and one frame ..
I refrain from that stuff these days ....you young guys can have it all to your selves ...
