Got my licence earlier this year after 2 years on a CBT. Shortly after got myself a '94 FZR400 3TJ, and I love it.
Packs a decent punch and its light enough to throw around, think its the best bike I coulda chosen to build up my confidence on.
when I got it I took the engine out and rebuilt it which made a big difference, although the difference may have a lot to do with the ridiculous length of time i spent cleaning the carbs.
unfortunately it has recently blown the exhaust, so I've decided its time to tuck it away for the winter in the garage, but i intend on spending quite a bit of money on it in that time.

anyway thought id introduce myself, so... hello, my name is Cloudy.

Lol im not sure it was QUITE that bad. Although the weather was definitely tropical shall we say.

We do tend to get more sun in winter than we do in summer though.
