eBay My World: madmikesmotorcycles( 59)

I am a retired US Marine and Christian who loves anything with two wheels. I bought my first motorcycle just over a year ago and began modifying it. I loved working on my bike almost as much as riding, so I decided to start my own business.

After 20 years in the Marine Corps, I had no clue what I wanted to do. Tried selling clothes with my wife on Ebay (She is very successful) but that was boring. Tried college, again boring. I also volunteer at an animal shelter and started working for a doggy daycare company. Although I love dogs, working at the doggy daycare was not rewarding. After buying parts on line and modifying my 230L, I decided to sell motorcycle parts on line. I am not just a seller I am also a rider. I do all my maintanance and modifications. I currenty ride a 2008 CRF 230L. It has 150R forks with BBR heavy duty springs, I believe this is the only one out there. A TCI skid plate. Modified exhaust and airbox. A K&N filter (made it, no aftermarket filters out yet). Re-jetted. Custom instrument panel with Trail-Tech Endurance computer and 12V adapter. For off road I have a CRF 250X rear wheel and brake setup and a spare front wheel so i can swap the wheels out and go.

I am a retired Marine infantryman and served in both the Gulf War an in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
