Hello. My name is Chris. I picked up riding last year with my bro in laws 600RR. That was fun. Looking for a beginner bike I picked up a junker 1987 600F PC-19 CA emission spec. I started pulling parts off to see what needs to be R&R - A LOT. A local CL ad found me a 49-state Fed spec 88 600F parts bike which i dragged home in my beater pickup yesterday. I'm in the process of swapping everything over to the CA spec bike. THIS IS FUN. I believe my monkey wrenching mech skills are up to the task. I look forward to learning a lot on this forum. Hopefully I can get this bike up and running to join on a few local rides here in SoCal.

Right now I reside in Orange County and I'll be commuting to Pasadena for school next week. Hopefully I can "kick the tires n light the fires" in a week.
