I hope this works.

It was taken from Mercury messenger as it flew by earth August 2. This is a parting view. Very high resolution for a mpg file.

if that link doesnt work you can access it via http://messenger.jhuapl.edu/the_mission/movies.html "earth flyby"


I know it looks like a fake, but it is the real McCoy.

Hey, you never said if you got your bike yet ?

That is a sick site. I just hope they dont need ALL those 20,000+ body bags.

i picked up my bike last night. 2006 SS 750. the seat might have to go but other then that i love it. the bike really suprised me. i didnt think that a cruiser would handle like that but i have to say im pretty impressed with it. im working on getting my garage up and posting some pics here tonight hopefully.

The seat was the first thing I changed . I don't think it got more than 200 miles before I installed my custom.

EXCELLENT !!!!

I did the same. Swapped the seat out for a Mustang Seat. The stock seat really sucks. The other thing I did pretty fast was change to V&H pipes.

Other than that the rest is great.

Yeah send some pics over, then send some more in a year and we can see how broke you become !! It's like an infection. You start with one little change, and the journey never ends.

You being into sport bikes before, don't hold back leaning that spirit in turns. Of course it aint the same as a sport bike, but it comes pretty close.

My foot peg feelers (in fact I'm replacing my pegs this weekend) are pretty much ground down and bent over, and it will still scrape. Only problem is that on the right side you will might start scraping your pipes (depending on what you have).

The more you ride it, the more amazed you will be on how it handles.
