Hello from a Noob! was created by BigDoug
Hey All!
Just wanted to let you all know that I have been lurking here for a few days. I am a 50 yr old rider. I was the parts department manager for a small Kawaskai dealership in the late '70's and early '80's in my small town south of Seattle, WA. Met Eddie Lawson and his young protege....Wayne Rainey at the dealership in 1980. I am currently working on acquiring several Kawaskai 4's: a '76 900,an '84 GPz550, and a '81 KZ750E(4). I'll post pics when they are home and in the stable. Currently ride a '95 H-D Softail all customized. Bikes owned: '72 Suzuki 250 Savage, '73 CL350 Honda, '72 & '75 CB750 Honda, '80 XS11 Yammi, a Kawi Vulcan 1500, '00 H-D Softail.
This is a great form and hope that I can be of help to others as they are to me.

Welcom aboard, Doug.
You look demented enough that we could almost consider waiving your initiation fee. Wait a minute, that can't be waived--gotta have pics of those bikes at the soonest possible moment. :evil:
