Default Just another old newbie joining the forum

Hi all,

Names Paul, I live in the littlest crapper of the country called Rhode Island. Thought I would intro myself to what looks like a handful of members. Maybe we can get this forum going. Anyhow. I love to ride, I've riden all sorts of bikes over the years. Dont let the name decieve you however. I am a noob to a lot of things occasionally (aren't we all?) But I am not a noob to bikes. I coined the name about ten years ago and I still find that its never a "taken" name no matter what site I go to, So I keep using it for conveince sake.

Anyhow. I am riding in here on a new to me k4. I really wanted the '08 Busa and was very close to just going "ahh just get it" But I cant justify the 2,500 hike in insurance a year. I was going to buy the bike outright, but the insurance thing was a deal breaker.

Instead I got a k4 750 from a trusted friend who I know never dropped it. Bikes clean, Showroom and stock sadly sans the can, but I am working on that. Scoprio alarm is already installed. LEDs just arrived. Anyhow, it had 4774 on the clock when I got it last week, its now at 6029. I commute daily and ride bikes regularly. I wrench on bikes as well.

My newest to the fold

Thanks Chevy and Vossy for the welcome.

Hopefully this forum wont be so "kiddie" as the last one I tried. I kinda hate the "My bike does wheelies for ten miles" attitude. I am more of the I rode my bike to work at 135 kinda guy, LOL I like the speed, I love to ride more tho. I'd rather slam the skoot into corners and ride it as a sport bike should. Knee and peg dragging. I get more out of riding than seeing someone stunting. Noobs can pop a wheelie. Lets see them ride the twisties efficiently.
