Hello!

I found this lovely place from a search for information on CN bikes, inspired by a whim. I've been lurking for the past week or so, and the community seems really nice!

I started with JP and Euro bikes (82 XJ650, 2001 F650CS) and am down to just the Yamaha now. Reading through the forums has been a great source of information, and I hope to be able to contribute to it in some way.

I'm dipping into these bikes with a KPM200 which is not for me, but for my younger brother. He picked up an 81 Yamaha XS400 with butchered wiring, missing chunks of frame, poor welds, etc. Basically a deathtrap.

The huge danger of doing all the research is now I kind of want a Chinese bike of my own just to play with. Anyway, glad to be here and hope to see you around.
