Hello, Greeting and Salutations

My real name is Will and I live just outside Portland Oregon. I have been riding for over 25 years and will continue to ride until my body no longer allows me, it is my passion, my theropy. Although I have owened many bikes over the years there are two brands that I prefer...and those would be Aprilia and Kawasaki. Granted, all bikes are cool these are just the two that I prefer. So I currently own a 2007 Aprilia Tuono R and a 2008 Kawasaki ZX14. I love both bikes but they are very different, and I like that. My Kawasaki is extremly powerful and fast, holy f--- fast! I primarily use it for longer trips and two up riding. The 14 also does extremly well at the drag strip! Now my Aprilia is dialed in for the twisty roads. I have upgraded the brakes with Galfer rotors and braided lines, the stock rear shock has been swapped out with a Mille R shock, Leo Vince exhaust with map 2, CRG levers, Corbin seat, upgraded clutch slave cylinder, HID lights, Puig windscreen, and lots of carbon fibre.

I hope that you enjoy the photos, show me your ride!

Have fun out there but keep it safe, wear the right gear and stay rubber side down!

Welcome from just up the road (I-5) a bit! I too have an T ('08) and a Japanese bike ('07 FZ6). Totally different animals and I love them both. Love what you've done to your Tuono.
 
If you are just up the road then hopefully you are a 12th Man like me!

Go Hawks!!!

Yup, took me while to get over them not handing the ball off to #24, but I'm over it now. Kinda.......
 
Welcome mucker, nice machines and the exhaust on the 14 looks like it would break windows. :thumbup
