That rocks!

I was inspired so I made myself a BMW logo, also a shout out to my former Suzuki brothers here's a 'zuki logo:



Honda's motorcycle logo would make a nice one too.

I want an award too!! I have an 1979 Honda Hawk. I bought it used and there was no manual with it. (I also didn't think to ask. I was so excited.....it's my first bike!!) I've searched on the internet and I've asked at my local Honda store.....but nobody knows where to find one! Can anybody help me out????

Get a Clymer. They contain all the relevant information, too. Read a few of the maintenance sections and award yourself the badge.

S_B, that's quite a collection!

Scribbles, I'm not sure we've seen that side of you before. I think I like it!

you need to get a shop manual thattells you when you should change the oil and how to do it yourself. things like that.

next thing you know, you'll have your own dremel and will be modifying your own bike yourself...

I pulled the red version from their website. If you like the green better I could do that, too.

I had both the Gearing Up and ATGATT icons 2 pixels too large. Here are the 60 pixel versions (for consistency).

Animated is nice but having them all pile up like a crazed tween on MySpace is nice too :O

Good to see someone else get use out of that BMW logo, I didn't know there were any LightTruck riders around here. Firedog, I'm guessing you've been here?

I've only had mine for about 3.5 weeks, but I'm enjoying every minute of it! I'm on the BMWLT forum, as well (Lost_but_Happy).
