Unlike me, she cleaned up pretty good. Now I need to try and figure out how to use this as my profile picture...replacing the old "long distance" view of a year ago. I'm still wanting to have The Mountain Man to add some modest touches to break up the huge expanse of the fenders, maybe a little something on the trunk, and possibly the fairing.

Well nuts, I can't figure out how to change the profile picture to this one so any advice on how would be appreciated. I went on my profile and tried choosing a different picture(the new one above) but nothing changed.


EDIT: Serk, nothing changed...assuming I did it right. I entered that link in the upper box where it says "I have my own pic."

#2: I give up, now I have a blank box which I assume means the image is too big.
 #3: Ok...got it, but it's sooo small.

Looks like it doesn't like the PNG I created earlier, I massaged it a bit into a JPG and managed to get it to work...

Go to you profile, go to the "Choose File" option and copy and paste this in the box:

See if that works.....

Hell of a resurrection John.  The bike looks great.   cooldude

I'm in favor of minimalist additional pinstripe.

Jess, Mike Lamborne is a Da Vinci of sorts. Check out http://mountainmanart.com/ and you'll see what I mean. Has done some amazing work, likes to follow the rally circuit during summer if possible and is quite highly thought of.

Well nuts, I see the avatar is back to the old picture. Don't know what the issue is, guess I'll go have another stiff drink(coffee/no cream) and ponder the problem.

Wow, she looks great cooldude

I'm with Farside, the seat is exceptional.

I've always been jealous of that seat, it's just cool.  Cool

My first thought when I saw the post, that’s not a nice way to refer to your new lady friend! As it turns out BB Bertha is looking good
