Wow!

Your ride has about the same amount of torque as the average Peterbilt, right? :lol:

Thanks for the welcome.

Toyuzu is that a Yamaha Seca in your picture? We had one when I was 16 and the picture reminded me of that bike.

Budman I know what the bike in your picture is. I had a picture of that bike on my wall in 1985 (I was 10) when it first came out. Dreamed of having one ever since. I think I'll buy a 2006 when they become available. How do you like it?

No, but it's similar to a Seca. It's an 84' FJ 600.

Well Cowboy get ready to write a check because they should be available any day now.

I like mine but I have only had it for a little over a week, no complaints yet ;)

If you want to post a picture here in the thread, this is an easy site to use: http://picsplace.to/index.php

Just hit the "browse button, and it will let you search the directory on your computer for the pic. Select the pic you want to post, then click "upload".

There will be two img tags after the upload. The first is for a clickable thumbnail and the second is full-size. Just copy, then paste into the post in the forum.

Or, you can upload directly to the site in our galleries: http://totalmotorcycle.com/BBS/album.php

Just cloose the gallery you want to upload to, and hit the "upload pic" button in the top left. 8)
