My name is Jack Azevedo. I live and work in Chico, CA. I'm a professor type at Chico State. I raced motocross in the 70's. But life got in the way and I had to get serious about career stuff. In the last couple of years, I've been going to motogp with a couple of buddies both of whom have Monsters. I got to ride a Monster for almost an entire weekend last year. I was hooked! I recently purchased my own Monster. A 1999 750 with only 8500 miles. The original tires were still on it! I had some initial work done to make it "ship-shape" and have a few things to follow up with. It's GORGEOUS (yellow) and a BLAST to ride! My first ride was up highway 1 in Marin county. What a first ride on my Duc! The previous owner added a few things to it to upgrade it such as dual front disks, clip-ons and a tach (and some carbon fiber bits).
I'm currently rebuilding the stock forks so I'll post a question about that later.
Glad to be here!
Jack
Welcome! Highway 1 would be so much fun. I wish i was a little closer to there. Post some pics of the bike.
Congrats and welcome Professor.
