    congratsthumb.gif . Is it an 1150 or a 1200. The headlights look as if it's a 1200?

    1150. 2002 model.
    It is basically in new condition. I've taken everything off that comes off in the last 2 hours and put it back on again. Everything is too clean. This thing is just screaming to get dirt on it.

    Can any of you BMW buffs name the car that it's parked next to?

    Very nice! That's my color scheme. I see little bits of customization: the brushguards, clear turn signal lenses, center stand bash plate. Izzat the givi screen? Any other mods?

    Hmmm, the car. Dunno. ne_nau.gif

    HH, you gotta get a new outfit...them's my colors :D

    Dugmar, nice looking bike! I tried for Pacific Blue but had to settle for
    basic black. I guess the red seat kinda makes up for that.

    Good call on the mods from that one shot.
    No other mods really except for the seat.
    The color scheme couldn't be better, I love it.

    The screen from what I can tell is stock BMW.

    Love all the bikes. Here's my rig at Mabry Mill on the Blue Ridge Parkway returning from the 2004 Run For The Wall and Rolling Thunder. At this point, I had just past the 6,000 mile point for just this one trip (Alabama to Ontario, California to Washington DC and return to Alabama).

    It's done the Dragon's Tail at Deal's Gap as well.

    Bikes are such a willing subject. Both for the ride, and for the shot. I can't remember the last time I've washed her, she just get's better and better. :D

    My brother's 2001 Yamaha R6:

    This is from a track day last year. Not my picture (friend's P72), but I processed it. Original was in B&W unfortunately.

    He just returned from Daytona and his first weekend of amateur racing - placed top 10 out of about 40. He's not shy about leaning it over:

    He fabbed a slick tray for his lap timer out of carbon fiber:

    Ever notice those rider encounters where the first thing that's check is the tires, for lean angle? Pass a bike parked, no owner in sight.....we've all done it. :): The Chicken Strip Check. (ovbiously, none on his r6!)

    Great shot Tim. Great DOF. Shot with some P&S perhaps? Nice color saturation also.
