administrator Posted February 5, 2003 Report Share Posted February 5, 2003 On the relaunched website I would like to replace the AR303 on the left with the best example of an AR-3 that we can find. I suspect this will be a picture from Tom's collection! Tom, if you are able to try and recreate the angle somewhat of the AR303 that is there now, I can downsize your image to 140x200 to display on the website.I think it will be an interesting graphic (and an interesting commentary) for an AR-3 to be on the left and a 303 on the right.Also, I just checked out the new machine I will be using for the discussion forums. The change could be made within the next 24 hours. Once it is made, I will post on the main page and disable these current forums to prevent confusion.Check out how they will look here:http://www.dcscripts.com/dc/dcboard.phpMark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tysontom Posted February 8, 2003 Report Share Posted February 8, 2003 I do have quite a number of images of AR-3's, and I will search through them to find a "vertical" shot for you. I also have some images of the early AR-1's that might be of interest.--Tom Tyson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
administrator Posted February 8, 2003 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2003 Thanks Tom! I'm excited about getting these upgrades done .. I'm trying to stay motivated today to make some progress.On a totally unrelated note, I think I was just in the right place at the right time to get an underseat prototype on my bike. Check out these pictures:http://www.bwracing.com/triumph03_body.htmlThe pictures are taken of a Triumph, but a different model. I'll know this next Saturday if everything goes well and I get it back. I heard it's about 10hp up on the dyno, I just don't have a map or anything definitive yet.Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 11, 2003 Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 Maaaaark:I know this may sound stupid, but why didn't you say you were a biker!!!!! What are you riding? T595 Daytona? I have a Eurobike undertail for mine, but a side exhaust. I like the look of the high pipe rather than the undertail exhaust, just me.My login is pretty straightforward, in that I own a 1995 Ninja ZX-7. How many more of the guys on this site are bikers?? Lessee if my pic will fit:Chris aka "Kaw"Well, it's not popping up, Mark. Any ideas?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
administrator Posted February 11, 2003 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 Yeah .. the attachment path is wrong somewhere in the code for the forums. I'll have to find it. I used to have a '97 Daytona T595 with a nice Yoshimura pipe. I sold it this last year and picked up a '02 Daytona 955i CE. By far the sweetest bike I have been on, and most powerful. The looks I'm still not really used to though .. I think the '97 had a better body.Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 11, 2003 Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 Mark, agreed on the looks of the 97. I called it the poor man's(not really that much cheaper) Ducati 916/996/998, etc. Looked just like it from a distance. Boy did Ducati ruin that look for '03!! Picasso runs the design department there apparently!Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tysontom Posted February 11, 2003 Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 Mark,On this totally unrelated matter, the underseat exhaust is extremely cool looking. This has me interested in the new CBR600RR from Honda. Smaller engine, but some trick stuff, and great handling. The GSX-R1000 is just too much fun for any one person.

I think it might be better to send actual photos to you, as most of my image files are too large.--Tom Tyson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
administrator Posted February 16, 2003 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2003 Hey Tom, Chris:I just put together a few pictures and MPEG's of my bike, I got it back today with the Black Widow installed. I am still waiting for a trim piece for the rear, and also did not remove the rear footpegs, so these aren't the pictures or movies I will be posting for the public.Anyway, if you're curious .. the bike sounds mean and it rides mean. Goodbye Ducati's. The Zip file is @ 17meg.http://www.arsenal.net/Black%20Widow.zipMark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkantor Posted February 16, 2003 Report Share Posted February 16, 2003 17 meg??? How about a PDF? Some of us only have DSL.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
administrator Posted February 16, 2003 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2003 I reduced the resolution of a few pictures and threw them up .. here are the links to paste into your browser:http://www.arsenal.net/Goodbye%20Ducati.jpghttp://www.arsenal.net/Side%20view%20of%20Black%20Widow.jpghttp://www.arsenal.net/Side%20view%20of%20bike.jpgMark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 Nice, Mark, NICE!!!! I got some good stuff coming to ya this week from the Motorcycle Dealer show. Seems there is a bit of stuff available for the Triumphs, albeit mostly European companies, but if you want some trick stuff, it's there.Ciao(as they say in Italy)Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
