Hi I'm a new registered member, but I've been reading Gixxer.com for over a year ;) I live in Quebec Canada where it is as white as can be right now :sad....

I'm 22 years old, I've been riding for 2½ years started on the track last spring and i'm hooked, bought a R6 track-bike in August and started novice racing. I also had my first serious accident in September on the track, low-sided then high-sided and landed on my heel at about 160km/h).... result: fractured my heel. Been off work since then, should be going back in January. I have the winter to rebuild the R6 and plan to do many track days and hopefully a few races in 2011.

I bought my 06 GSX-R 1000 in August 2009 had 8500 kms on it, it now has over 30 000kms :D. And the reason for it being green is that the previous owner wanted the bike to match his Viper :dunno

Hope to meet some of you guys someday, Any of you in the north east??

Do you have any better pictures of the bikes, than the ones in your signature?

you should put a big Hulk decal on it :lol
I'm gonna consider that! never thought of it :punk

The green is definitely an interesting choice.. but it looks like it was done right. Nice bikes..well..bike now.
It cost the guy alot of money to have it done, the stickers are all clear-coated and there is green only where it used to be red, and the paint quality is perfect! and plus its not shitty kawasaki green LOL

Ohhh man I had the same crash you had at seasons first race here at CSW (CAlifornia speedway) it was back in Jan 10th. Mannn I just start feeling better and walk with out any pain :punk

thanks for the encouragement :banghead lol


I have some buddies who were down in jennings around the 3 of dec... would of loved to go but $ and the busted up R6 fcked me up a lil..... It's a 24h drive from here.... But the R6 is on it's way back, by the way the pic doesn't show the other side of the bike..... it's pretty ruff, the tank is fixed(dented on both sides) and the fairings are ready for fiberglass, still lots of fun to come
