      You need an off site picture hosting place like photobucket.The account is free.

        i should prolly not mention that the PO put pink/purple lights under the gas tank and rear fender....as soon as the tank comes off for painting, those lights go, for now i just have them disconnected from the battery, so there isn't an oops moment with them on.

          Well man---- I think there should be LOTS of pics of this transformation or... sex change...if you will.

          For posterity you know.

          I would like to see it in full regalia, lights and all before you change anything.

          Maybe some of the ladies here could get some good ideas.

            Hi 1st,
            before you take the tank off, could you please reconnect those pink & purple lights and take some after dark shots to send to the list?
            That's just not the kind of thing you see every day, eh?

              1st bike,
              Send me a pm with your email, and I'll send you an email back. I can then get the photo's you want posted and put them up on my web host site. I'll then be able to post them in all their glory for everyone here!

                Actually... it looks kinda cool... and I don't like pink... but then... a guy riding a pink bike is either very secure in his masulinity... or his femininity...
                lol


                Like tarzan said... photobucket is good... Quite a few of us use that site to upload our pics...

                  I had a pink shirt once.

                  But I think it started out white. Washed it with some red rags on accident.

                    kat, pretty comfy with my masculinity, but i just don't think that is kind of attention i want to draw on my bike!!! i don't need any "new friends". and i'll work on some pictures with the lights and then the tank is coming off for painting! i actually wanted to ask a question about that, but i'll do it on another post.

                      Heh.. heh.. you could always ride INDOORS out of sight.

                      Sooner or later you would have to COME OUT though.

                      (see the ribbing will continue even without pics.)

                        So that explains the circles in the living room... and here I thought it was to be cool...

                        Greg? Is there something you aren't telling us, Cupcake?

                        Man! am I ever glad Tulsa is WAY up there!

                            Well, I must admit, actually, my wife did it....on purpose.
                            Seems I destroyed one of her shirts in the washer..... so she returned the favor.
                            I made sure to wear the pink shirt all the time, so she wouldn't think she got over on me.

                            But that one guy kept following me around the mall all day..............
