Right on.

We have some of us south sounders that live nearby you. I am like 20 min from Puyallup. Let me know if you got questions about the area or want to meet up. I'm sure we can get a lil group together and formerly introduce ourselves.

Cheers!
Josh

No problem, lol.....I probably won't be driving my car anytime in the near future as I'm pretty sure it needs a shortblock so it will be a bit before I can get the money together, but....I'll be in the area, lol.... Guess it just depends on if I swap the whole shortblock or just do pistons/rings...either way, I'm not looking forward to it.

So whats in WA that you decided to move here? Do you have other transportation other than your KTM . I use to have a Kawasaki 250KLX, but sold it to pay some bills. I want to get back into again, just dont have the funds for that hobby right now. My friend has a Honda 230XXX(cant remember the call letters). If he decides to sell it, I might pick it up.

I'm in Tacoma, my Buddy Eric has a black SC300 with big gold nwautoevents.com sticker on the back and he is right of 86th Ave, and my friend Joe has a 85 4runner thats mostly rattle canned black and camo on tiny tires and he's right on the border too on 112th and 44th ave. So lots of toyota people around you.

Hey guys, I got up here last friday around 1:30 am and left for NorCal to go dirtbiking around 3am the same day, lol. Back in town now living at a friends place until I can get some money together to get my own place etc....

The reason I moved here....I was living in Eastern Washington ever since I finished my degree a year ago (mechanical engineering) been looking for a job ever since with no luck so I figured maybe if I lived closer to the area it would help in my job search. For now I'm working as a mechanic to pay the bills but am actively looking for an engineering job. Kind of depressing at times since I'm in a position of owing a bunch of school loans and having a degree but can't get a job, not to mention I need to fix my car but don't have the funds to do it. Just a struggle at the moment but I'm trying to stay positive.

As far as vehicles I do have another car to get around in as well as the bike so it's not too bad, just sucks to have my GS sitting around collecting dust.
