Hello all!

Name's Jay, from Houston. Been riding an '88 Honda Hawk for 6 years (profile pic), and recently sold it for an '03 FZ1000. Anyone familiar with the Hawk will likely empathize with me that the switch was not an upgrade. It was a mistake.

Don't get me wrong, the FZ is one bad mama jamma (the last carburated year, i believe), but it's just not my style. With the upgraded Micron exhaust, it's pushing about 122 bhp to the rear wheel and it handles cleanly.

It's just not my bag. I miss the rubbery acceleration and unbeatable handling of that super-light dream bike.

Anyway, here we are, and I'm on the hunt for a clean, comparable v-twin (or maybe v-4) to drop some love into.

Ride safe, everyone.

Jh

Welcome aboard Jay,
probably won't see you on a ride but enjoy your company anyway.

Yea, probably not, but hey, it's internet, right? There's plenty of people who know way more than me--all over the world. Just putting my listening hat on...

And thanks for the welcome!
