ctrl and the - or + key at the same time is what I do... although i will include a link so that way a person can have a clickable thumbnail of the pic.donald branscom said:Yes it is very aggravating to have to keep dragging the page left then right then left to see it all. The web page person needs to understand that almost all screens have a 640 X 480 pixel useable space.
Even on my large monitor I have to keep dragging the page right,left,right to see it all and have access to the scroll buttons.
On the other hand the subscribers need to get their photos sized to 500 pixels wide max. That will help the web page design .

ProSimex said:Pics or its just a random photo you pulled from google search to impress the rest of us. A description on your build and some ride videos tearing up the asphalt and not just puttering past your buddy with the camera would also be appreciated
Tim said:ProSimex was joking lots of us with dry sarcastic senses of humor.
Looks awesome, even on my tiny Dell Streak screen.
Having ridden the bike with and with out the big bore kit, I have to say it made a world of difference. Although keep in mind I did all the mods together so it isnt just one mod but all of others in conjunction with each other. I also did a bunch of calculations on speed vs rpm vs hp and tq from dyno charts in order to find a sprocket set up which would complement all of the mods all together.ProSimex said:Of course I was joking, I'm not actually a complete asshole. Except about the video part. If I see one more ride by video with the riders friend going whoohoo as its ridden past and up the block I'm gonna scream.
Build looks tight though, how are ya feeling about the bigbore kit? I was going to go the mikes cam or get a shell 1 regrind but I realised it wouldnt gimme any more power in the lower rev range where I usually am. Whats your take on that?
Again tight looking little scoot!
ProSimex said:Also the del torro, high ratio gear, and banshee swap, all worth your while and $$$$ Did you do the Banshee swap yourself or get a kit. How was tuning them fancy carbs?
Is there any baffling in that pipe? Might be missing out on some low end torque if not.
joeybaggadonuts said:nice ride! what kind of battery are your running? I'm going to guess it's in the tail? I'm working on simplified wiring on my cb400, so i'm curious what you did with yours
urbandork said:Its actually strapped to the under side of the seat, right next to the solid state voltage regulator and rectifier. The battery I'm running is about the size of a cigaret box. They are like 7 bucks and can be found on ebay.

With this battery having so little capacity I have to kick start the bike with only the LED neutral light on. I had used a capacitor but with the battery being so small i went back to it because it gave better starts over the capacitor.
As for the wiring it was rather simple as im use to dealing with wiring on imports. I basically went down to the bare minimum.
Head light
Tail/brake light
Turns
Neutral
Ignition system
Perm Mag
I had always planed on running key-less. I was going to use a toggle switch but then simplified it even more by just using the Kill Switch as my primary switch. I figured since I had to turn it on with only the LED neutral light pulling amps it wouldn't be that heavy of a load on that switch. (so I dont have to worry about it burning out or fusing together.)
Thanks to modified stock mounts the head light bucket also pivots up and down at my will and stays where I put it... even when riding. This meant i could drive with the high beam on all the time, which i did anyway. Thus the lo beam side of the switch allows me to keep head light off while kick starting it. All other lights are hooked in to the power off the Hi switch. (tail/brake and the turns)
I found the best way to make a wiring diagram is to actually draw it out. I use MS paint some times, Simple yet affective and I can color code the wires versus having to use crayons or markers. (yes i have used crayons)
Hope this helps. good luck
no problem. we are all here to help each other outjoeybaggadonuts said:yeah, minimal was what I was going for.
sorry for slightly hijacking your thread! awesome bike!
thanks for the info
Thanks. It is a blast to ride. I went with the ratty look cus the last two bikes i did were all shiny and for the most part stock looking.1976cb356 said:That thing is wicked looking, love the rugded look. Looks super fun
