Altered picture of the ZG250

This image is from a ride north of Austin with a mixed group of riders and bikes. One of my favorites.

My Ninjette on the cover of Motorcyclist magazine!

Photobucket

I uploaded a pic of my little Ninja to the Motorcyclist site, then arranged a mock cover for the magazine. You can have a cover printed and even framed at high res, starting at $30.

Of course, this could be done just as easy, and cheaper, in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop or a variety of design applications.

New headlight!

I just installed a new bulb in the Ninjette today. I have not ridden at night yet, but during the day, wow! It's an Eiko H4 60/55 watt Super Brite bulb. You can pick it up at Axiom Cycles, among other places. Less than $10 and quite a difference without going broke on HIDs...

And now for something completely different

There is something to be said for having the right tool for the job...



Then again, a real adventure is doing the task with the wrong tool.



One of these things is not like the others, four of these things are kind of the same...
