honestly if you can get the same Library screen as mine and copy the IMGs they work well.

The images you posted before work if you copy them into a browser as a links without the IMG tags, but not as images. they really need to end in .jpg and then the /IMG in brackets.

I think you were trying to post a slideshow, I just clicked on the individual pics and the other options appear. (IMG, Direct, etc...)

RZed, On my photoshop library page, when I click on an individual picture, nothing changes from when any/all pictures are clicked or unclicked. There is no IMG selection or Direct selection, therein seems to lie the problem. Yes, slideshow is one of the 6 options available that I attempted, but that was simply because I was trying each option. But thanks for posting them for me.
JonW, you might know the Spec II bike possibly? I'd be interested to hear about it.

Good ol Corbin "gunfighter" seat. You dont see many of those. I know someone who has a brand new one in plastic never used, He turned down a $600.00 offer for it, Also a new alum Calfab swingarm. He bought them new in 86 but crashed his bike before installing them, He keeps saying one day hell buy another RZ, he better hurry! Prices are going up...alot.
You have two nice bikes there, Each with its own style, and ni doubt will be alot of fun for you and your dad, thats pretty dammed cool of you if you getting one for him. Thumbs up!

Let me tell you, that corbin is comfortable! Vs the new OEM seat that came with the bike, or the seat on the KR, this is the one I prefer. It does have a horizontal (side to side) rip in it right about mid seat, but the PO fixed it with some genuine aerospace seat adhesive film (black duct tape). :smt003 But it works and isn't very noticeable, plus maybe it adds just a speck of character to the bike?
The yellow of the corbin is starting to fade in certain areas. Thoughts on a color-match dye or something? Certainly not anything I'm going to do right now, but maybe as part of a winter fix-up project.

Thanks for your comments and compliments. Sorry about not having more/better pics. When we unloaded them my buddy and I and his 18 year old son just stood around and gawked at them, went for a short ride, and gawked and talked some more. Totally forgot about photos. The KR is staying in his gorgeous new 3 bay shed right now, keeping it out of my garage in case Dad comes to the house prior to his bday. I'll buzz down there next week on the Spec and take some photos of each and then one of you guys can load the pics for me. :smt041

Wow, very nice indeed.
The gauge pod mount with the specII fairing is a fucker lemme tell ya.
You'll have to engineer a mount for the upper fairing too as the original setup is a joke.
In the end, you'll find that everything just about fits, then new steering stops are a must or all that work is for naut.
