My 124" bagger gets 33mpg all the time,not that I care.This 155" is geared just a little taller,so itshould be close to the same thing.This bike has been built for one reason,to scare the living beejeesus out of me,and good strong roll-on's.

The 155" lives!!!!!The high-torque starter came in yesterday,on about the third revolution it exploded to life.The first thing I noticed was how bad the bike lift was vibrating,and rattling.Today, it is not raining,so a couple of short shake down rides are in order.Just maybe, with Terry helping me,I can get some good pics out in the sun to post.Dog

ORIGINAL: dog155...One of these days either I will take the time to figure out how to do the larger pictures,or get someone to show me...
Go to www.photobucket.com Get yourself a free account, and upload your picsthere.In the options select the message board size (640x480).

When the photo uploads, move the mouse pointer over the URLLink and 'left click'. It will automatically copy the link to your computer 'clipboard' when the 'co.

Go back to thepostyourwriting and hit the little 'picture icon'. It's the last oneabove the box you're typing in. A small box will appear. (Note: If your computer'beeps' and a message appear saying:'This website is using a scripted window to ask you for information.' 'Right Click' that bar andtemporarily allow the scripted window. Then hit the 'picture' icon again, the small box will thenappear.)

Simple hold down the Ctrl key and push the 'V' key. This will copy the previously saved picture link into the box. The pic will automatically appear in your message where the cursor was.


Good Luck...And get those dang pics up!!!!!
