Kim has been riding motorcycles off and on for over 40 years. She started riding dirt bikes when she was 14 with her brother in a vacant lot and bought her first street bike, a 450 Suzuki Café Racer, at 19 while she was in the United States Air Force. Kim was a flight line jet engine mechanic on a fighter aircraft, the F-15 Eagle and during this time she also learned about motorcycle fabrication. She built a Shovelhead Chopper in her garage from a basket case she acquired after selling her Suzuki.  She took 2^nd place in The Phoenix World of Wheels in 1981 in the reconstruction category.
