Your chicken strips are almost non-existent. Nice. :thumbsup
PS. You do realize that Imagshack gives you an option to resize the images for you, right? That way you can post them right into the message. Let me know if you need help figuring this out.

I wanna see your CB250.
I rode a Rebel once and it was a blast. I suspect the brakes are the worst part about the CB since they are still drum. The Rebel at least has a disk.
I'm still trying to figure out how to set up my avatar though. Thanks,-Kevin
Click on the "Profile" link in the main menu on the top and then scroll down to the bottom. You should be able to upload an avatar right there. Let me know if you have trouble and I'll do it for you.

Nice bike, Roost. Pilot Power's? Did you install them? If so, how do they compare?

A friend mounted and balanced the pilots for me. since this was my first set, i just stood back and observed, next set I will be changing myself, now that i know how to do it. He owns a tire changer and a balancer, so i'm pretty fortunate. as for the performance, man in warm to hot weather, these things stick like glue to the tarmac. Even in water/wet weather they still provide great traction. Everyone i ride with swears by them. During the summer mos. we ride deals gap @least twice a week and really put these tires through hell. They're just an excellent tire. As for the cb250, as far as the brakes go, it makes the bike quite scary! while driving the thing home for the first time, i quickly learned the difference between my 599 and this bike because i almost busted my ass, trying to slow as quick as i would with the 599, anyway, my wife loves the bike and it's turned out to be an excellent bike for her to learn on. :shock: As for the tail of the 599, it is completely a homemade hack job.
