Long time lurker, first time poster
17 Aug 2016 22:38
Just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself as I have finally gotten around to registering!
My name is Tharen. I'm from Southern Minnesota. First bike I ever owned was a KZ and still have it. Since then I have added more and more to the collection.
I truly cannot express the amount of help this place has been for me over the years as a shade tree mechanic, I wouldn't call myself a whole lot more than that. That being said I always have at least one bike tore apart at any given moment and always learning more as I go. Attached is just one of the pics I snapped when my wife and I moved to our new home. I cleared out the garage and backed the bikes in right away. Since then just about everything about my garage has changed.
Thanks in advance for the warm welcome I'll likely receive!!

I've got some east coast buddies that need to see my red one. Only two owners. My father in law and I.
Would love to make a fall long haul over that way.

Welcome Tharen.
I don't know about the others, but my old eyes are having trouble seeing your bikes well.
Any chance you have some more pictures?
