Is there a reason the Vision picture on the start page has the bike on its side.

 

Dont you think that there is a better picture to put up there than that?

 

Geeeezz!!!!

OK - You are not serious are ya? The Anti-Tip over feature is the most talked about. How better to prove it than with a picture?

That fine gentleman is none other than our own Don Tracey !!

Hover your mouse over the picture and a short description pops up.

I think the picture is overall pretty cool. However I do think the home page pictures do run a little long, I've think we've had to look at Don for the better part of at lease a few months now. Would be nice if the picture was changed a bit more often. Keep in mind this is all my ESHO

maybe its that the bike is straight up but its we all that are living slanted... The tip over protection is important but I agree that the photo needs to be changed at least monthly. We could do a cover shot monthly contest. Most artistic bike, most embarassing bike,
bike with the most chrome, blackest bike, etc etc...

I would vote for a new pic as well. Its nice to see the tip over's at work, but as I have written here already, I have had the unfortunate luck to have used them on 2 occasions, so I KNOW they work. Time for something new.

I agree a new pic would be nice. The Tip Over Protection isn't anything new, Goldwings have it, Honda STs have it, I'm sure there are alot more. I don't think it's anything to brag about either. It's like bragging about training wheels.

did someone mention training bras????? naked women are a dime a dozen just go to any senior retirement center.... half the time they dont even know they're nekkid. ever notice that the people who wear the least, are usually the people who should wear the most????? as Ive always stated, there is a fine line between sexy and slutty. some dont know when they've crossed it.

Damn! Now I have to apologize to ya'all for being SEXIST ! Naked men would be UGLY - but for GAgirl I would put up with it....
Let's just admit that while I was a good looking dude for the website, it shouldn't be about girls/guys - but bikes. So - let's just look past Mr. Ness's scary look - and admire the machine. And hope we have a new non-sexist inspiration on a regular basis.

Agreed, Mr. Tracey. I'll just keep my satisfaction with the good looking guys and bikes on the front page to myself.

To everyone else, how 'bout we all start posting or suggesting pics to JAM of ourselves, in all seriousness, for the front page. That way, he doesn't have to troll around, looking for a decent pic for the front page. Kinda "By the people, for the people" Maybe it could be a monthly poll vote or something. A thread of it's own? What do y'all think?
