        Definitely an 1150 top end at least.

            Trevor is on his way to the Vintage in the Valley show and asked me to post his flag picture. He sent me two so I picked this one. I hope that's all right with him. I can change it if you like Trev......

              My wife and I rode tonight looking for a good flag pic. Found a few potentially good ones but with not even a hint of wind every flag in town was lame. We must have ridden 50 miles and never left the city.

              Good subject but I'll have to try again later in the week.

                  EPS[empty pocket syndrome] has forced it to the sidelines for a couple years but the 1229 kitted GS1150 motor and suspension upgrades make it a FUN bike to ride.

                    Just in case I don't get another chance this week, here's a shot I took yesterday. No wind whatsoever to make the flags wave, but that's the best I could get.

                    On the left New Mexico's State flag with the Zia Symbol, on the right the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta flag, and of course the USA flag in the center.

                      Does the motorcycle have to have a running engine?

                        Clever! Honestly, the "rules" don't say anything to disqualify that pic. If someone objects they can simply not vote for it.

                          Charlie, I really like that picture. Hope you don't mind, but I downloaded a copy, and cleaned it up a bit to see the bike better...

                              OK...This is the best I have at the moment. Maybe I'll get out in the next day or so, and try for something better.

                                That's how it works. Our eyes have incredible dynamic range. Much more than monitors, printers, or cameras. But there are some things we can do to make a picture look more like what we see.
