Just go to photobucket.com, and post the pics there.  Then, post that link here to each pic.

Look at the top First subject about posting pics to Photostash from Scott OK,,, it will tell you all you need to know and do to get it right.  Not difficult, but does take some time and effort. Good luck, and we're all anxiously awaiting the pics of your "new' bike..

Jabba,  I'm asking this out of ignorance,, but don't you have to use Photostash to upload the actual pic to your post?  Photobucket is much easier I agree than photostash to use, but you then have to 'link" it to your post. Right?   ???

Okie Dokie... here's my first try at photobucket:

http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/zz91/elraque/Valk_pic.jpg

I put the travel pack on this afternoon. The wiring was kind of a mess. I need to by some electrical connectors to clean up the installation.

I have Corbin "Beetle Bags" to go on soon... after I get the wiring thing straightened out.

Joe is photobucket pro extraordinaire.

He'll get you going.

Photobucket, acutally has a link that you can copy that will put in the {} blah blah for you.

It's one of the links under the pic when you upload it.

Higher IQ.

Now that is nothing I have ever heard on here before.

It has not effected my IQ one Iota.

E=MC squared.

I think I am feeling smarter too now.

Dang it's catching.

Try a trasmission cover from Kuryaken.

They change the whole personality of the Power Plant and it is easy to install.

Just saying if you are ready to blow some coin on bling , it is a good place to start.

But chrome won't get you home.

But they tell me it looks good while your pushing it.

I like your trunk as well, I have one on my Mean Streak.

Nice looking bike,  but of course all Valkyries are beautiful. Orangville, Ut. huh? I am originally from Springville and my wife is from Richfield, looks like you are in between the two. We call Colorado home now. I have an 03 and ride every chance I get. How long have you had your bike? Hope to see you on the road

I've had the bike two weeks today. I'm thinking about making a ride to "Marysvale" tomorrow -- being from the area you might know where that is.


Orangeville is "over the mountain" from Richfield -- about 30 miles south of Price. Grand Junction is just a short hop from here -- a couple of hours. One of the guys I work with (at the Hunter power plant, just off highway 10) likes to ride (his GW) from Price (where he lives) to GJ for dinner (more places to eat there than in this rural area) and back. Sounds like a good idea. Soon. I'll let you know, maybe you can pick us out a restaurant.

No, you can post a pic from photobucket. I use photostash for my frequently posted pix. Computers to slow, at home, to open another page and find pix on photobucket.

Just right click on the pic, click properties, and highlight the address URL. Then click that little picture thumb thing to post a picture, paste the link and viola! You can do it from any pic online.  cooldude

I'm not sure. I think it looks kinda like a VIP trunk, sold by A1Hardbags. Mine looks like the ones shown on their website, except it doesn't have the VIP sticker. It might be the JN, sold by the same guys.

Here's a link:

http://www.a1hardbags.com/motorcycle-trunks/cat_2.html

Mine looks like the ones shown on their website, except it doesn't have the VIP sticker.

The wife says she likes it, but she hasn't made a long ride with me yet. I like it for the convenient place to put stuff (and for the additional lighting to warn the cars that I'm here).

The link says that they cost about $115, but that you need to have a "luggage rack" (flat rack) to mount it to.
