Default 1971 XLCH

pGear, your gallery looks really good with the rearrangement.

That layout is pretty nice.

Especially like the photo quality on that last picture. That is sharp.

I'm gonna go over to bike of the month right now and vote if I'm eligible, before I forget.

Good luck.

mudpuddle...........Thank you very much for the flowers. Most of the photos in my gallery for BOTM were taken with a film camera, so they are scanned from prints. The others are taken with my Canon G6 digital except for that last photo.
I was scrambling to get the gallery together to represent the effort involving the rebuild. I had bought a used Nikon D70s body on Ebay and it arrived July 01. I already had all of the lens needed that would also fit this digital body. On July 02 I put it on Automatic setting and took that last photo. I was amazed with the difference between the Canon G6 and the DSLR Nikon. Talk about color saturation! I really think it is the best shot of the entire gallery. You have reaffirmed that with your observation and comment. Thanks again mud.
