You can either upload them to a photo sharing website or what I've done previously is take a screenshot of the image and post that, as it's usually a lot smaller file size.

Or easiest way to resize is take a screen capture of the picture and crop it.

Believe it or not I've been riding my bike ,Ive even been commuting on it to Leeds and back
Only problem I've had is two new rear tyres due to punctures , the switches are to complicated and far to many buttons to press
It's got monster mid range and goes like shit off a shovel the handling doesnt really kick in until your doing silly speeds
Cant wait for summer

Slowy beginning to really like this bike ,its nowhere as nimble as my zx10r and feels a bit lardy at times
When you get into the higher rev range it's a proper missile ,low down it makes you lazy as it's got so much grunt
Its far to stiff on bumpy backroads which I like to ride on under the radar and I really hate the switchgear
Great ride on it today though the blipper is ace

"I'm not spending any money on this bike"
