Eengler2, if you would, pm me your email address and I will email you some pictures to put here on the badweb. For the past 2 years I've been trying to figure out how to shrink photos for this site but I just cant figure it out.

you know you can post a link right from photobucket that will show the pic on here. plus i think now you can down size the photos on photobucket also.

atleast on my account the very bottom link under each photo makes it so the pic is shown on here.

I just copy and paste your above web address after
\i m a g e l i n k{
but don't add the extra spaces and then add the last bracket. (had to type it that way so you could see it)

Clear as mud, right???

oh okay that sounds easy enough.

Thanks for the comments guys. My father wanted me to start a thread to see which version people liked better(blue or the black). I honestly could care less but for giggles i would.

I like the black better
Did you cut out the stock heel guards or are those aftermarket/custom pieces? I like 'em.

trust me the thought of having my tail piece powder coated black has crossed my mind, but then I remember all the time and effort put into stripping, sanding, and polishing the tail makes me think shinny will work. BTW thanks for the comments guys, I've been tossing the idea of getting a red tank logo like off the cherry bomb bolt and putting it vertically on my flyscreen.
