i am trying to learn more about motorcycles, how everything works, how to fix and make them better than new. so i just got an aprenticeship with the motorcycle drag race champion, Larry Mcbride aka spiderman. i will be working at his shop evenings and weekends. he has a shop about 10 min. from my house, it has its own machine shop and the build drag bikes, and also work on all types of asian bikes. i think that this will be a great experiance for me and i plan to give back to this site and the people on it with what knowledge i aquire.
