Default Hello

I just wanted to say hello to everyone and tell you all a little about me.

My bikes:
1998 HD 883 sportster
2005 Honda 600RR

I've been riding for about 3yrs, mostly sportsbikes. I just recently pick up this 883. It was my grandfather inlaws. He was killed on it about 2 years ago. No one in the family rides, so I got it to keep it in the family and ride it the way he would want it to be. I'm looking forward to learning a lot from this site so please don't dog me for owning a Honda or an 883.

Thanks, Brent
