Rotax - looks great - lots of unique mods that are easily apparent. I bet there are heaps more once you post up some more (and bigger) photos. Good stuff!

Not knowing which programs you're running, an easy way is to select any images that you want to reduce (in iPhoto), select the "Share" tab up on the top toolbar, then select "Email". You'll be asked what file size you want them sent as. Pick a decent image size then all selected images will show in an email window at the smaller sizes. Save them to your desktop and you're ready to load them to ClubCobra's Gallery, Photobucket or whatever else...

Jason, re the photos, if you use the following link: (help with posting photos) you get a choice of large, medium or thumbnail image. If you go the 'shorter' route that many others do and use the 'insert' link you seem to get only thumbnails.

So first you need to prepare your photo. With your Mac you will have a standard program called Preview that usually opens automatically when you double click on a photo on your desktop. In Preview, use Tools on the menu to Adjust Size (say to 15-20cm) and then on the bottom of that Adjust Size Screen - check the number of KB involved. This needs to be less than 100kb. You may need to Adjust Size smaller, depending on the original to get below 100kb. Then Save.

Now just follow the link above to Up Load your photos.

There may be a faster route but this works and give you options.

Re the stripes - why? It looks great now in simplicity.

Jason, you need to fully open the pic then copy the url, not just copy the url from the small pics in the gallery.

Interesting take on a classic, Rotax. Where are the wing mirrors from?

Hey Sambo, They are off an MV Augusta but should have been made for the Cobra we think. I like that you can see the fat Cobra hips in the wing mirrors

Jason, I usually keep the boost set where it makes approx 600 rwhp on pump gas. That seems to be about the limit for reasonable traction on the street for me. Cheers.
