    I think mine is different. There aren't to many parts on a motorcycle that you would want to bring up to 1,850? Fahrenheit and let soak at that temperature for 45 minutes...
    My Motorcycles:
    22 Kawasaki Z900 RS (Candy Tone Blue)
    22 BMW K1600GT (Probably been to a town near you)
    82 1100e Drag Bike (needs race engine)
    81 1100e Street Bike (with race engine)
    79 1000e (all original)
    82 850g (all original)
    80 KZ 650F (needs restored)

      Theme this week is confusion,eh? Well I started out with some Mad Max ideas in seeing the original pic, but evolved into what I think brought us all to this forum originally....old GSes, their parts, tools(or lack thereof) and making it all roadworthy. So here is my entry and some stuff to make the whole thing street worthy? I'm sure there are some essentials missing but I've given away most of my spare GS parts...shims, r/r, gaskets, splines, etc... When all else fails take the BIG mallet to it!

        Now you have the idea. Dig deep you guys, there has to be something odd or different in your pictures, if not this is a good example.

              What's going on with this week's game?

              Glad you guys are having fun. I've been trying to sit this one out hoping next week we'll get to see more whole bikes.

                  I don't see anything odd or unusual in this picture.

                    Rules:
                    1. Today is Saturday, I'll start with a theme.
                    2. Saturday to Thursday is submissions time. Everyone else can post one (and only one) picture that meets the theme.
                    3. Friday is voting day. Vote for the picture you like the most. You can vote even if you didn't participate with a pic during the week. (voting closes at midnight, Pacific time zone).
                    4. In case of a tie during the voting day, the first vote that breaks the tie the day after will decide the winner.
                    5. Saturday, the winner of the week posts a new theme using an example picture.
                    6. The example picture ALSO participates.
                    7. Any bike can participate... not only GS's (as long as it was yours when the pic was taken)
                    8. The date of the picture does not matter, you can use new or old pics as long as they meet the week's theme.



                    Summarizing:
                    • Saturday to Thursday: Pics that meet the week's theme are submitted.
                    • Friday: Vote for your favorite pic of the week.
                    • Saturday: The winner posts a new theme using an example photo.

                    I was under the impression a bike you own or owned needed to be in the pictures..

                    I don't think bike parts constitute a "bike"...

                    Here goes Jedz throwing down the rule book from post 1. Just this week is confusing. I'm leaving my post and letting it ride...

                        Well, it's Friday Vote Day. I vote for KERRFUNK, if for nothing else, to see what he has up his sleeve for the next subject. ☺

                          I continue to be befuddled.
                          Still don't really understand the theme, or how it applies to some of the photos.
                          (But, that's my problem...the light will probably come on later)

                          Nonetheless, this game is a hoot, and we did get some fun, interesting photos.

                          So not understanding the theme, my vote goes to Dorkburger, because it made me laugh...
