Me neither. I don't think most guys like being in pictures.

Re: GPz 900R
Sweet bike! It looks big.
As far as pictures are concerned I don't like smiling in them unless there is a hot chick or two next to me. Since that doesn't happen usually I try to smile a little but it looks more like a grimace.

Re: GPz 900R
I know, I finally put both pics together and boy did my Vulcan look tiny compared to the Ninja. The Vulcan would lose wind at 80MPH in 6th gear and I was already 3/4 throttle. The Ninja only needed 1/4 throttle and it didn't feel like hesitating even with a blast of wind coming straight at it. Since managed to put 40k miles on the Vulcan 500 it's pretty much a given that I out do it on this bike provided I take care of it.
My Ninja looks more like a sports tourer than resembling any of todays sports bikes and even though it makes quite a bit of power it's still gentle for riding in town.
As for the photos I just dislike it because my right eye is bigger than the left due to an accident during my childhood. The right eye has a long scar next to it and that side of my face makes me look like a killer or something while the left looks relatively innocent. I suck in my lips because they're kind of big so I would never really smile. I do like posing with my bike as I consider it a companion but for reasons mentioned I rarely smile.

One thing you can count on: You push a man too far, and sooner or later he'll start pushing back.

Re: GPz 900R
Eh dude I didn't even notice. A little scarring is good for you. Use it on the ladies "I was protecting some little old lady down in Harlem from two thugs with knives." Plus every woman I know likes the big lips. Use em to your advantage!

Re: GPz 900R
That is a great looking bike, I really like the flat black. A friend of a friend offered to let me ride his years ago and I said no, still one of the worst decisions I ever made.

Re: GPz 900R
Thanks. You have the ZRX, another great bike so you're not really missing out on much, just the added wind protection and somewhat quicker steering.
It won't stay flat black for long as I am going to get some red or blue rim tape and TRON it out...

Re: GPz 900R
Thanks, I do love my ZRX, but I wish I had ridden the 900 because it is a classic (albeit a fast classic), when I first started reading about bikes it was the Sportbike, when the guy asked me if I wanted to ride, the guy that rode before me was speeding with no helmet and I figured I would get pulled over before I made it around the block, plus I don't like to ride other people's bikes. Put up some pictures when you "TRON" it out, I would like to see what it looks like.
