OK, DucNaked; I tried and tried to avoid it but I finally have to break down and ask; what is the meaning/significance of your avatar?

Dude it's the guy from the movie 300 and he really likes bananas or has a potassium deficiency.

Leonidas is singing about bananas

Here you go.

OK, now I get all about who is in the shot and what is going on (never watched 300, yet).

But my question was more to DucNaked, what is the significance to you personally.  You just think it's a cool shot or what.  I'm not being a smart ass or anything, I'm just curious.

An update on my progress.  Blacked out the flyscreen.  Been wanting to do it for a while.  Finally got some Krylon Fusion in a no gloss black (cammo).  Masked off the front of the screen then sprayed the back.  The cammo black is a non reflective paint and it matches the black plastic and matte finish on the bike pretty well.



Again, sorry for the crappy pics.  I gotta get myself a camera.

I wanna see more pics of that 77 Tiger

I just thought it was funny that's all.

I'm thinking I want to change it to an "eagle or bird of some sort"

What direction will it be facing?

I don't know; I have a problem with birds.  Had a buzzard (vulture) crap all over me one time while I was riding.  The buzzard swooped up from a roadside ditch rising just enough so we didn't impact but just as I cleared him he let go spraying me from head to belt line.  Luckily I had on a full face helmet and leather jacket that took the hit.  I still remember my ex wife rolling on the ground laughing as I washed my jacket and helmet in the water standing in the ditch (we were out in the middle of nowhere so that was my only choice).  On two separate (other) occasions I ended up with dead small birds in my lap after we collided.  I guess I'm lucky that the buzzard and I didn't collide; they are pretty big birds.
