I thought this would be an interesting idea.....a great way for us fellow MV enthusiasts to get to know eachother a little bit better.

I'll kick things off for starters.

My name is Jeff, born and raised in California........ my entire family lives on different parts of the US......my mother and brother currently reside in the wonderful state of Maryland....my only sister lives with her Marine husband in beautiful hawaii.

Just turned 21 this past january and have officially began to enjoy the benefits of being of "legal age".....I live in the wonderfully over rated city of Rancho Cucamonga with my girlfriend of 4 years....just bought a condo out here...and slowly moving myself up the ladder.

i started the whole college thing as soon as i finished high school.....went for about 2 years...got my associates degree in business administration....and decided at that time that i needed a break from school for a little while.
I worked in a custom motorcycle shop doing bodywork and simple grunt work around....oil changes....rejetting carbs....etc etc.... i opened up a sportbike parts "store" in the shop and ran that successfully for about a year...serving all 50 states. I loved the job, but the pay was very minimal and i decided to search for a career. I kind of fell into this whole real estate thing, my cousin who was a loan officer actually let me tag along with him at work a couple weeks and i realized that it was something i knew i could do. Now with hundreds of loans closed and numerous "top producer" awards...here i am today. I do both ends of real estate...sales and loans...but specialize in mortgages.

My first bike was a honda cbr600......i rode the bike until it broke...putting close to 30,000 miles on it in about 18 months......went through about 20 pairs of knee pucks in that short period...and further enhanced my love for riding.

I moved onto my ducati 748........which i had a blast on as well......but it being a used bike (and me being way to enthusiastic to buy it) the previous owner did not take care of her....and i inherited every problem she had. so...thousands of dollars later.....she's finally in the working condition i'd hoped for her to be in at the time of purchase.

I recently bought my MV from pro italia as you all may know.......and i can't explain just how happy i am to have the SPR. I look forward to many good times with her....and i've already bought a couple pairs of knee sliders to break her in properly. :naughty:

Thanks to everyone on here for their wonderful hospitality, this is by far the best group of people on any forum i've ever been on.
