Hello from Canada!
14 Jan 2011 13:30
Hello all,
My name is Travis Votour, and I am from New Brunswick, Canada. I have been wanting a motorcycle for a while, and finally decided to do it. I had no idea what to get, when to buy or what to look for. I then found a cheap (listed at 1200) KZ 440, and did some research. The feedback looked promising for the low price I was offered, and it was in excellent shape, with only 32K kilometers. Or about 20K miles.
I went to see the bike, and funny enough the guy couldnt get it going (we are mid winter in Canada). Now, my dad knows a fair share about bikes and knew that this guy didnt know what he was doing. He knew witha bit of work it would run like knew, so we offered 900 and he took it.
I am picking the bike up tomorrow and will post before and after the intense cleaning!
I am an automotive detailer part-time, so im excited to spend the last two months of winter cleaning this up.
Glad I found a forum
Again welcome all
