New guy from Cincy

Whats up guys, a new guy from Cincinnati here. Been into cars and bikes, but with a wedding coming up I had to back down on all of the toys. Car wise I had a 98' heads/cam Trans Am for quite a few years.....then I got into bikes. Had a 04' GSXR 1000. Was putting 4-5000 miles a month on it, riding every second I got a chance. June 13, 2006 I sat down a nice long wheelie, going about 70mph, and hit a deer head on. Totaled the bike, scuffed me up a little, but lived to tell about it. Then moved on to a 06' gixxer 750. Rode if for about 6 months and then finally sold it to finance a little more college.

 

Now I'm rockin an 06 Acura TL, loooking for a nice corvette to get back into the car game.

 

I frequent Columbus quite a bit. My fiance owns a dance studio and they have a ton of competitions at the convention center up there. Needless to say I'm looking for a reason not to dread going up to Columbus haha. Look forward to meetin' a few of you sometime.

Welcome Shawn. It's a good idea to read the stickies before posting your intro. If you put the requested info and a few photos up (even of the past/wrecked vehicles), you should be good to go. Lots of T/A and bike fans here.

BTW, you're the only one I've ever heard of who's hit a deer coming down from a wheelie. Impressive.

 

 

 

 

 

Enjoy!

4-5000 miles a month on the GSXR, eh? Wow, you musta ridden it everywhere

 

 

You have no idea. All a product of driving an armored truck and kicking ass on my routes. Would get off by noon everyday, and never worked on weekends add in having no real responsibilities, and I had all the free time in the world. Would ride to work at 0630 and wouldn't get back home until 2230-2300 just about every day......... Now that I have the fiance, a house, a "real" job. I'd be lucky to get in a 100 miles a week (hence the reason I don't have any toys these days)

 

 

Thank you for the welcome though
