Hello, I come to you guys from ZX6R.com it has a very similar lay out as here. This is only my second forum I've joined. I only been riding since last September. My other love is a 07 ZX6R Ninja. Hope yall take photobucket photos easy like the other forum. ZX6R has become a second family to me. I deleted my facebook account because everybody was tired of me talking about motorcycles. I got tired of pictures of their cat and junk food.
I had love for vintage motorcycles way before the T.V. show Cafe Racer. Although, that show only fueled my desire to build. My brothers best friend been riding for 20 years all by himself. As soon as I got my bike, I called him up so we could roll.
In the process of Red (we'll call him) showing me his old used trackday tires, I noticed something better then just tires. It was a dusty, red 1977 xs400 sitting in the corner. It was like porn at first sight. Red said I could just have it, get it out of his way.
I guess I still had cafe blood on me from the Rockers Vs. Modders Reunion the past couple weekends ago. I hit up Red to see if he was really serious about giving me that bike. Sure as shit he was. All I had to do was give him back a pair of leather pants I bought from him when I first started riding. Pants 4 sizes too big was better then nothing when I first started riding and it was cold out. I now have better fitting leather, and my cafe bike I've always wanted. Life is almost complete. I just need life in the 400, and it will be complete.
