Great shots!!

I know this has nothing to do with the bike, but did you use a wide angle lense for the shots in town? The depth of field on the low angle shots is pretty good.

As for the bike, I got mine last weekend. Yay!!
Cant ride it though coz im writing exams and have to study

[uxc]

Yeah, they were all shot wide angle. I find it helps get everything in the frame easier. Here's one more i forgot to post...

Note that he has holes in the rear of the fender for the airbox.

A (Very) rough translation from Babelfish:

Hello together,

I wanted to show you times, how my change of my Xcountry became on a high fender. About taste can be argued as well known. I do not find however that the machine after the change any longer so schwachbruestig look – straight line within the range of the front portion.

The moreover one I have the side covers at the air cleaner box with a black Car Wrapping foil pasted like one it also for taxi and fire-fighting vehicles get. Who made that already times with this foil for that the following sentence will understand – this things processes I never again!!! Three times I was allowed to paste the Dinger to it beginning way something became

Blocked I a SM fender of KTM (SX-06/EXC/SMR-07) and KTM Gabelschuetzer for WP forks. Only black fork protection stickers are missing...

Under the fender I attached a small sheet metal with 4 drillings, which to me here by the Andi from the forum (perfect on measure) one made. Thereby the shield cannot rotate any longer, which is whole thing now beautifully stably fastened.

From here from again thank you to Andi and kind regards after Zwickau

I managed the cultivation with four screw mountings (2 pieces of M6/65mm for fork bridge down, 2 pieces of M6/75mm fork bridge in front).

The two front screw mountings are held with two eye bolts, which I fastened to the front boreholes of the lamp owner.

Otherwise the pictures explain more than thousand words.

Greeting Marko

Of course I am, that bike was sweet! It's just too bad I didn't have enough time to maintain/ride both of them. Put 7200 miles on it from August thru March with Colorado winter in the middle of it..I was loving it!
