Default nOOb from Kansas.

No, I don't know Dorothy.

44 yo. married father of 3 boys. Been endorsed since I've been licensed. First bike was a Rebel. 2nd was a Suzuki GS400F. Third was a CBR600. Been down twice(owe my life to a helmet). Took a 5 year break from 2 wheels. Got another Reb to tinker with. Bought my wife a 78 Honda Twinstar to ride with me. She didn't dig the bike. Sold them both and bought 4 Honda scooters. 3 Rucks and a Met. Stretched 1 Ruck. Working on the next. 3rd is stock for now. Wife rides the Met.
They did the trick.....for a while.
I dig my scooters, and they'll never leave the herd, but I want more.

I signed on an '11 DWG last week. I take delivery in about 10 days, when I get back from vacation. They're adding pipes, stage 1, and a breather while I'm out.
No pics of my bikes, yet. I'll get them up in a different thread.
So, there it is, my brief history. Not all of it, but the good stuff.
