Hey guys

Hey guys

Post by kerrr » Mon Oct 07, 2013 5:27 am

Hey guys! My name is Keyur. I met some of you guys at bike night although I showed up pretty late.

I ride a 2008 Gsxr 600 that I recently bought. My first bike was a 2001 Cbr 600f4i a long time ago during my time in the Marines stationed in California. I got allot of experience in the canyons and highways there and had allot of fun with some cool people. When I moved to West Texas I rode a Honda Shadow Spirit 750 which I actually loved. I then owned a 2005 Gsxr 600 which I didn't ride much. Now I'm getting back into riding a sportbike. Already the old muscle memory is coming back but I'll have to start out as a beginner again because I'm really rusty in the corners and also in the parking lot.

Welcome to the boards. I think I met you when you showed up at bike night, as I was leaving. Come out to bike night again this week for our 10 year anniversary, and keep an eye on the rides section for any rides that pop up.

So by that same logic, I'm also a Tea Party member who loves Justin Bieber and I wish Miles was my boyfriend?

Wow.

Welcome...I'm pretty new also (okay, new, not pretty). Hope to meet you soon. If you were at the 10th anniversary bash, I personally was overwhelmed with all of the people, so sorry if I missed you.

Welcome to the boards. If you showed up this past bike night, please don't judge us solely on that "odd" event. We don't turn 10 every year. Our bike nights are not like that night. If you showed up, sorry I didn't get to introduce myself and meet you. Join us for the our next one, which will be a normal bike night for us. Keep an eye on the club rides section and join us for a ride or two, or three...

Not sure because I have never tested my GSXR to see how much or little power she has. :D

No, I think I stated it correctly. I'm pretty new (to the club), and not very pretty (to the eye).
