So I know all of you who read this regularly have seen my bike 75% complete like a million times. I did however get the chance to get my sister to take some pictures of my bike with her rebel. Its like 16 mexapixel, so nice. I figured they were worth posting one last time until its back together.

PS: Its so dirty, and you can see it, so im sorry in advance. I did however give it a start today for the first time in like two months, I had to put the battery back in and such. I was a little worried cause I was hearing horror stories about fuel pump relay problems. Cranked twice and started right up. I was impressed, go honda.

 

how do you like that tank bag? Ive been considering getting one

 

Honestly I have never ridden with it, as you can see my bike has no wheels on it at the moment. I do like it quite a bit though, it was cheap, has a backpack strap in it so you can take it with you, sticks pretty good, and isnt overly bulky. There is a thread going on about magnetic tank bags, controversy about if they stick or not. This one is real solid on the sides, decent in the back, and has no stick north of the fuel cap, as there is no tank under there. I am going to just glue a magnet to the inside of the plastic and call ti a day. That seems to be the way everyones doing it. Check out the other thread here...

How about that flipper plate holder? Where'd you get that? I just recieved the CBRHeaven FE mainly for the integrated taillight, not sure if I'll like the plate location though...we'll see when I install it in a couple days along with the Moriwaki exhaust and some other goodies. I'm wondering if that bracket would work with the Moriwaki?

BTW, sweet looking bike! That blue is really growin on me. Can't wait to see the finished product.

 

Thank you.... The plate bracket is made my tripage (www.tripageled.com). Its pretty standard, just bolts with two holes through the exhaust bracket. The problem with the heaven fe is that you will get hassled by the cops quite a bit. The plate needs to be on the rear most part of the bike. The tripage is legit, has a light, and flips up when your in the heat, or going fast. She should be done in two weeks, ill have more then enough pics up as soon as its done. I cant wait.

I just looked up that exhaust, It looks like you can bolt it through the exhaust bracket. I would pop and email to tristian at tripage, he will let you know for sure.

 

I believe the Rebel was a 6.XX MP, the Rebel XT was an 8.XX MP, and the new Rebel XTi is a 10.XX MP.

........AND you spelled Canon wrong (it's only one n)

........AND you still took pictures with the flash! (which in the BlueFox school of photography is enough to get you kicked in the ***** by the professor)

j/k man, just bustin your chops is all (because I'm mad that I don't have a Rebel XTi ) But I guess I get by with my cheap little A630.

 

AAH, sorry fox. My sister did all the work. Its the XTi, I know what for a fact I just couldn't think of it at the moment I was writing the thread.

Had to use the flash, took them at night in a dimly lit garage (another project of mine is to fix that)

 

XTI is nice i have an XT. Its way too dark btw and flash SUCKS. Tell her to buy an ex580 haha see how much better that will work.

Buy a tripod, shoot at ISO100 and no flash. Flashes ruin pictures unless used properly. My guess is that this was taken in P mode as well haha. Otherwise bike looks great.

 

Seeinga pic of that bike without wheels/tires is likeseeing a world-recordmarathon runnergetting their legs hacked off below the knees!! Put the rubber on that baby and let her rip already!!!

 

The bike looks really nice i bet you're itching to get her back together and take her out for a night on the tarmac [8D]
