    I use Imagestation for my photos. www.imagestation.com , then you can post the photo directly.

      I rode my bike to the office yesterday and shot this picture in the parking lot. I haven't done much to get it pretty, but it runs sooooo much better. I placed an order yesterday for $400 work of suspension parts from Dennis Kirk. That's dang near what I gave for the bike!

        That would be $400 WORTH of suspension parts. I am fat fingered today.

          well I finally have some good pics to upload..I can never keep up with the changes I make compared to the pics I take..the first one is from when I first got the bike and did a repaint..it was originally black with the gold emblems..


          since these pics I have painted the fenders, added an exhaust, changed the tires, changed the bars, and various other stuff..K&N filter, modded airbox, jet kit..and such. most recent incarnation.




          Like I said I can never catch up Pic wise to the changes I make..Those big signal lights have been eliminated and have been replaced with ministalks with clear lenses..

          Some Info I really would appreciate are part numbers for Progressive suspension components..

          1) fork springs that will lower the front 1.5"
          2) rear shocks that will lower the rear 1.5"

          I'm not confident that the part numbers listed in the books are exactly what I want..Thanks guys for the time..

                    Bud, I followed the link in your first post - imagestation asked me for a password supplied by you, your album is password protected.

                    Remove that, I think. Then link to the SMALL version of the photo with the IMG tag... or something like that

                    You can use the Feature Testing forum to fiddle with things til you get it right.

                        Ok apparantly I was just too dumb to do this in the first place. I get 5mb of webspace with my service and I just never learned how to use it.
                        But Today I am a little smarter.

                          Question about Bud's Motorcycle

                          Bud

                          I'm curious, I have a 81XS11H with the Vetter rear saddle bags, but I'm missing the one for the back rack. My question is do you know if all the Vetter's came with lights in the back of the top bag or is that something you modified? The only reason I'm asking is I've got a wiring harness under the seat that seems to goto the rear rack.

                            Can't help it was on there when I bought it. However I can tell you that it looks as though the rear compartment was made with the lights. I'll take a closer look tommorow.

                              There was an XS11 on www.ebay.de with the same fairing and cases. Had the same lights in the topcase. The last I checked it was a bit over 400 euro, full dress, 78E.
