        Cool, looking forward to it.

        Your pics are tiny, maybe step up the size one notch?

            If you want to spend the time, you could upload the pictures to a dedicated image hoster (I myself use http://imgur.com/). After uploading, the hoster will display various codes which you can use to embed your image on various forums, web-pages etc.
            For the GSR forums, you need to use "BBCode". Simply copy-paste the code.

            I usually choose to embed an around medium sized thumbnail, with the option to click on it to get the full size image.

              You can simply click his pictures as well. They get bigger. I think having to use a hosting site is stupid and nothing more than a way for outside entities to have a look at everyones photos. Ill keep hating the one pic per post rule thanks.

                That's way too hard.

                  I need to be more explicit around you old farts...

                  That's obviously what one tries first. They go from post stamp size to business card size. (except one) So...

                  Maybe I should get me one of them potatoputers with a whoppin' 1024x768 on 17".

                  Hosting all pictures on the GSR would enlargen the bill significantly, methinks. Also, you're already showing your pictures to random strangers on the interwebs...?

                  Anyway, not to derail the thread further. Looking forward to watch the build progress.

                    Hi been a while since I last posted should have a decent update soon . Just a quick question does anyone know if a exhaust off a gs550 katana will fit my gs550 ex I've seen a Marvin pipe in black for the katana . But I've only seen chrome ones for my model . Cheers in advance

                      A Katana pipe will certainly fit the cylinder head, and I'm almost (but not 100%) sure that the silencer will fit ok. If it doesn't fit exactly, it shouldn't be too hard to fabricate a bracket. There's a new UK member here who has a 550EX, or maybe EZ, that has a full Kat system fitted. If you can find him (I can't remember his name right now), he would know if it is an exact fit.
