Crazy Canuck From Nova Scotia
Hi Everyone,
I came across this site after deciding it was time to get back to bikes. The cost of fuel up here in the Great White North has everyone wanting to ride. $1.50 + per litre of high test/91 octane...that's $80 per tank in my thirsty Pontiac GTP.
The site really impressed me so far, keep up the good work!
I've done a bit of riding in the past, but after a somewhat bad car accident involving a drunk driver in a 1-ton Ford truck with a snowplow and my little black Mustang, I had to get away from bikes during my recovery. Injuries and finances convinced me that I wouldn't need a bike license anytime soon. So....here I am...seven years later and eager to start riding again. I'm still bike hunting and stuck on a waiting list in three nearby cities for the local MSF course. I've always been a fan of time tested designs like the Ninjas and Nighthawks. Its nice to see a site where pos(t)ers don't recommend a CBR1000 or a 1600cc cruiser as a great beginner bike, and shorts/t-shirts as proper riding gear.
Thanks to everyone here for the honest reviews and opinions, it's what made me wanna hang around here.

New Bike Pic
Here's a pic of the bike, since I finally got it cleaned up. Other than a minor electrical charging issue and upgrading brake lines, It's ready to roll. Almost 40,000 miles and still going strong.

Did the rack in back come standard, or is that aftermarket?

Thanks Ben. I think the rack
Thanks Ben. I think the rack was an Honda OEM accessory, backrest slides into the rails. The metallic black is actually a Volkswagen color. Has a graphite look in daylight.
