Howdy do!!

Gooooooooooood morning!!! FNG here and new mini owner!!! Well not new mini. She's a 2002 that I bought 2 days ago and I really dig her so far. Traded in my beloved Nissan Titan for it because of the need for better economy.

I'm a rabid motorcycle guy, Ducati's mostly, so I needed something fun to drive around since I moved back to California and will be doing the job hunt/commuting thing between Sacramento & the bay Area. I think I found the perfect beast.

Thanks for having me!!!

Thank you very much. Kinda dig her. To be honest, I just knew I wanted a Mini and this one popped up. Fun little bugger!!!

I do have to apologize though to the forum. I will be asking a ton of silly questions. I'm new to the car world as far modding and such. Mostly been farting around with bikes since the 90's. So be prepared for headaches and a lot of "Dis he just ask that?" moments.

Welcome to NAM and congratulations on the purchase of your new-to-you MINI! Ducati's eh? I have an Aprilia in the garage that sits next to a built R6! They're both track monsters though, not street legal. The cafe is the cruiser bike. If you ever have any questions or need anything for your R50 be sure to let me know. We are located in Cali so shipping to you should be pretty quick!
