Hey all, I'm Daryl, Daz to the ppl from down under

.

I've been riding a few years now with a license in hand, before that, as a youngin' riding friend's bikes because the parents wouldn't let me buy my own.

I currently own a 2007 blue FZ6, but owned a 1980 Suzuki GS400, which was a great starter bike. It was a little short on power, had to go through three gears just to get across the intersection, and to choke the bike starting up was a PITA. So glad for computerized FI.

The parents have since warmed up to me riding a motorcycle, because they sold me the GS400

. Not sure if this is their plan to get rid of me out of their will

.

Anyway, popped in to say 'Hi". The FZ8 looks like a sweet looking thing, possibly the FZ6 needs a mate. Someday maybe, dare to dream

.

Daryl.
