Okay I'll post some of my pics since we're seeing what we can do manually.

I'm definitely going to have to read more. 

I'm also using my iPhoto editor because of a few exposure issues. Hope that's not cheating.  :nixweiss:

What we've got here is... failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach. So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it... well, he gets it. I don't like it any more than you men

I sure wish you'll would stop posting pictures of this bike.... I think Jim wants to keep it and the more and more I see it I want it!!!! If you west coasters want to keep Jim on that side of the country you better quit otherwise I'm going to buy the bike and Jim will be visiting the east coast to see/work on this bike. :D :D :D

Hey Jim the numbers look great. Do you ride it 2 up? Was wondering how the engine works in touring mode?

Haven't had a passenger on it yet. No rear seat or pegs. I have the 05 SEEG for that. I'm sure the motor wouldn't be phased at all with a passenger though  ;D

For those that subscribe to American Bagger Magazine you'll see these photos in a six page spread in the August 2013 issue that just hit the news stand.  Congratulations Jim.....that bike was deserving! :2vrolijk_21:

Terrie and I spent the weekend in the bay area with Andy & Sherry, Don & Carol, Steve & Yolanda and Jim.  Had a great time and was great to be able to spend some time with our friends again.

After a little coordination with Jim this week I was able to hook up with some friends I haven't saw for awhile....Don & Carol, Andy & Sherry and Jim....and we got some pics of Jim's new bike.

Don & Carol got the $1.98 test ride in the twin turbo diesel.  Don's comment:  "I'm just really impressed with how fast this thing is".  Carol's comment:  "it's the big white truck with a crazy driver". :huepfenlol2:

Don, Carol and I left Andy & Sherry's and hooked up with Jim on I-880 at a pre-determined location and we all headed for the old NAS Base at Alameda.  Waiting for the sun to drop....what photographers call "the golden hour", Don and I both just started shooting photos.  Jim brought his Nikon also.  I imagine between the three of us there was probably over a thousand photos taken today.  Here are some of those that I took....

Hand painted....

































You can see the skyline of San Francisco in the background, across the bay....



This photo belongs on the cover of one of the bike magazines.....one of my favorite photos from today....
