    This week- I think its been touched on before, but.... detail shots. I was going to go simply go with maintenance / repairs, but its a subject that generally has informational and not necessarily interesting images, so think details on your cycle, details of the scene its in, etc.
    I like exploded views of things so i made this image of my caliper while it was apart for inspection / cleaning.

      I think I might be able to squeeze one in this week.

      This is just a small part of what happens during a typical carb rebuild.

        Here's my submission for the week. Going out of town Monday-Thursday, so may not get a chance to get anything else. And I don't remember posting this one previously. It's quite a stark contrast to Steve's nice shiny carb parts.

                      2001 KLR650 too pretty to get dirty

                      Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.
