Have been riding for a minute, started with a 80 something t350, then 00 katana, then 01 tl 1000, then 01 gsxr 600. I wrecked all of them and went without a street bike last season. Now i'm looking for a street bike after just buying my first race bike for wera (98 gsxr 600). Pretty much been all suzuki's throughout my riding years though. cause they rock.
