College student, at least was when I went to spring semester way back this year. Live at a studio apartment by myself. I was a computer lab coordinator for Education majors (professional slang for let me see your badge before you can use my computers biatch... or D'OH! you can't use a mouse!), it was a work-study job.

Now my job is to sleep all day... and ride all afternoon. At least it was until my tire went out of commision.

Me name is Mac, and in two months, I'll be old enough to drink legally. Have been riding since January.

Girlfriends suck.

I'm an accountant, living in Toronto, Canada.
Been riding since 1975, (I was 10 when I started on the dirt bikes).
I am married, my wife is 8 weeks pregnant with our first.
She hates bikes, or rather she hates the possibility of my being killed on the street.
(I can't really blame her......I don't have much life insurance!!)
Dirt bikes are okay with her, though.
This explains the knobby tire on the back of my CB550 (no kidding)

Brian, Des Moines IA, Trim/Final inspection at Bridgestone Firestone Agricultural dont blame me for the faulty tire!

The name is Curt, and I live in Laf. IN.
Turned 21 about 6 months ago and all I can say is, the bars are fun, but expensive.
I'm a college student, and I work part-time as a photo tech (I develop pictures, maintain the machines, Cds)
I've recently purchased my first bike, a 93 600CBR
It has a yosh pipe (sounds good), kn filter, upgraded sprockets, and a jetkit. Basically, I can stay right with my friends 03 SV1000S (full exhaust, power commander....best sounding bike I've heard yet), and I can pull on him after about 110ish.
I've only been riding for about 6 weeks, but I'm catching on really quick. I've put about 1000miles on it.
Currently single (gotta love the freedom!)
Anyways thats about it in a nutshell.

Word there Crunk! I gotta say, that although this is my first bike, it is as solid as a bike you can get! I've driven a few of my friends bikes so far such as an 01 GSXR 750, 03 SV1000S, 83 Honda Nighthawk 750, and a 92 Kawasaki Ninja 600, and still my bike has the best transmission out of all of them. No matter where your at or how hard you pull the clutch in, it just shifts in so firmly compared to the rest, it makes we wonder why I would ever buy any other bike other than a Honda. The transmission is so rock solid on this thing! I don't think I'll ever buy a different bike. The only nitch I have about it is the awfully long throw from 1st to 2nd. I still miss 2nd every now and then when I really get on it. Other than that........pie.
