    Hello People,
    My Name is Bobby Simon. I have a '97 vfr750f with 74,000 miles on it that I have had since 2000. I have been riding around in the bay area since '87. I have done a lot of sport riding around the Santa Cruz mountains and Marin county. Some time a little further on over-nighters in the Sierras or northern California. Though now I've slowed down a bit, I ride a little more dirt.
    I work as an instructor of motorcycle technology at CCSF part time. Full time I am an independent motorcycle technician doing business as Cycle Wizard at the excellent motorcycle service cooperative Addiction Motors in Emeryville, CA.Addiction Motors - Motorcycle Repair
    I try to specialize on vfr's because I really like working on them. I have some regular vfr customers and can do the v-tech valve clearance inspection.
    Here are some pictures.
    On the vfr, it has; '01 mirrors, superhawk front rotors, an older TBR slip on. Also it has an ohlins rear shock, race tech springs, and I run 15 wt oil in the forks. I put in custom made block-off plates and removed all the pair equipment. I recently re-did the seat foam myself and the in-house AM guy re-upholstered it for me. My other bike, the klr, well, that's a whole other story...
