Pic of the week game

[bccap]

Great theme!

Not sure if this can be accepted or not...this is a pic of my Cooley that was used for the ICBC calendar but it was not taken by me...

I'll get another one if it's not ok....I had this pic blown up and is on my garage wall.

Rules are in the first post. Rule # 8 says it doesn't matter who took the pic. So I think you're good.........

This was my third bike. I saw it on ebay and I lusted after it. I made a low bid and doggone it I won.
Seller was in the Gary Indiana area, and I was in the Hershey PA area, so I took a redeye Amtrak out, met the guy after breakfast, did the deal, and rode home. 700 miles in one day on a bike I'd never ridden before, now you tell me was that brave or stupid?

It was gold and blue, and had no markings at all.

I bought a fairing (mighta been from somebody here, actually) and painted it gold and blue to match as best I could with the learn-along-the-way skills I have.
The SUZUKI decals I bought on ebay, and they're reflective! The GS700E decals I had made by a friend who does vinyl. She also did the little horse-and-rider circle. That is a "Circuit Rider" and is the logo for the United Methodist publishing house. Early Methodist preachers rode to their many churches on horseback, and I'm a Methodist preacher and this is my steel horse. I have this logo on my 650 as well, and some day I'll have a bronze one on my headstone.
I did have lowers for the fairing, but they didn't make it into this glamour pic.
Also the windscreen had gold decals saying SUZUKI once more.

In progress, and with front lettering and side reflective

It was a great opportunity to have a professional photographer take pics of my bike.
Here are some others they sent me later after the calendar came out.

These are not my pic entries...

I won't have any shots near as glamorous as that Cooley shot. WOW!

From far away mine looks pretty nice but too close and the warts show. Airbrushing won't help neither, LOL.

Great glamour pic though and perfectly legal according to the rules if maybe not the spirit of it.

I will probably pass this week, making a KLR sexy picture is a lot like putting lipstick on a pig. LOL

[dorkburger]

Scott, I don't necessarily agree. A pic its natural habitat or some sort of detail shot could work well.

NOT MY ENTRY, but as an example, I'm always intrigued by dirt streaks. Call me strange, but I find it fascinating how air currents and the way they move around a cycle in motion show up in real view by their witness marks written in dirt.

Lip stick on a pig is not a bad thing... as long as they cook a good breakfast! 🌞

Never said sexy, and I didn't want to make this too difficult. Just take a pic that shows something you like about your bike.
There are lots of motorcycle ads of ugly bikes, Scott...Let see yours...

Note to self: I Should prepare for that to be a subject-topic sometime.
