hey guys, i'm new to the forum here. i came over from JDMRIDES.ca and i know that a few members from that forum are also active members here.
here's just my background in the automotive world. i got my own first car when i was 21. it was a 93 honda civic si coupe. that died because of some rust and just over 400000km. so i moved onto a 99 civic si coupe. when i did, i tried to get that same feeling i had when i first got my car. that car was involved in accident and had to be written off. then i moved onto a 2000 acura integra 4dr imported from the states. it was great, i had that feeling of fixing it up and getting new things for it. modding it here and there. but now i can truly say that i am finished with that car. like i said it was amazing but it kept me at bay from actually starting this hobby a year earlier. i feel that i have grown out of the "honda scene" which consists of a huge crowd of immature people as oppose to only a few good people, who i still keep in contact with.
which brings me to this forum. i got my m1 license after putting it off for over a year. i acquired it in august of this year.
my brother-in-law and a few of my really close friends got into the hobby, and a good friend of mine has been riding for over 10 years. and so they pushed me harder into getting my license. and once i did, that's all i cared about. it's pretty bad. LOL. i have not cared about my integra. i haven't washed it since i got my m1 license. i'm playing that saving game while still having my priorities within my life intact. the gf, finishing up my last year in university and all that other stuff. and so hopefully, next season i will be able to ride.
i'm really leaning towards getting a sport bike as opposed to a cruiser. i am scheduled to take my m1exit course on oct18-20 at durham college and i have been gathering up gear for that. i recently purchased my first helmet, boots and gloves.
shoei rf1100, teknic chicane street boots, five rfx gauntlets. i am borrowing a perforated textile joe rocket jacket from a buddy of mine. i am excited to say that i will be joining the forums even more. to learn and grow in the hobby. sorry if it was a long post. see you guys around the forum. happy riding and stay safe.
here a re a few pics of my helmet and boots.
