Apparently he fell in love, females sometimes resent bikes as "the other woman" and therefore men are to be discouraged from owning them or worse still tinkering in the garage without said female in attendance. ;D
See I just keep poking him in the eye and he don't react, must be dead or worse "MARRIED"! :'(
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

Send it to photoshop or whatever picture adjusting programme you have on your pc, you can adjust it there.
Another way is to send it to yourself as an attachment and adjust it in your email programme.
My digital camera has a setting for "internet" so I use that if I'm going to post a shot of my bike or use my cell phone camera as it always takes the right size photo. :)

Lets try this again.   Got it, thanks all for the help with the pics.  Well this is what I'm starting with. I've got ideals like drag bars, low sleek tank and other than that, I'm still thinking.  Any ideals?

Ha ha I don't think we mind but much of the stuff on here will be of no use to you esp the engine tech stuff.
I believe there is a DOHC site somewhere for the mechanical stuff but I understand where you are coming from, we have some very very talented modifiers on SOHC4. ;D
