Spud,
It's a up to 8MP camera. I did some checking and I think it's PhotoBucket. Seems that they now reduce the size on the free version and you have to go to the Pro version to get larger photos. Correct me if I'm wrong or suggest other options.
Thanks

I also use Photobucket. However, I reduce my photographs to 25 percent of full size before I upload them.

Perhaps if you are using automatic photo reduction, this procedure might be causing the much smaller photographs.

Better? My head hurts from all this thinking, I'm going riding.

imagecave.com doesn't limit photo size buy you only get 10mb of space if this helps at all

katoranger,
My old GPS is acting up so I took a ride up the Cherohala Skyway to check out the fall colors and the odometer with the mile markers.
A 10 mile run (mile markers) showed 16.5 kms on the odometer so my first check showed a 2.5% optimistic error. I'm happy with that small error. I'll do another check on another set of mile markers to verify the test.

Mile high XF200. Cold and windy up the mountain.

I'm loving the larger photos, Barnone!

Thank you for doing the "mental gymnastics" needed to increase the size.

You live in a beautiful region of our planet; please keep the photos coming!

A couple more and I am done for a while.

A couple of locals with my bike.
The guy is an ex moon shiner. He rides a liquor cycle (DUI).

The woman runs Thunder Mountain and just bought the Mini Cooper in the background.

Looking up our cove. Color is going fast.

I love the majestic scenery, and the wide open spaces of Idaho.

However, I certainly do miss the beautiful fall foliage of the eastern United States.

Thank you for bringing back fond memories.

I don't wish to hijack your thread, but here is a sample of the the Idaho foliage on a winding road a few miles from my home. My Christian Brother Andy is posed with his Yamaha, XT225, and my Zong.

I am going to start a new thread on Fall Foliage in the Video and Pics Forum; will you join me there and post more beautiful photos?

Beautiful bike! Love the supermoto's. Had a Konker with both sets of wheels that I shortsightedly sold after buying my current bike. Wish I would have kept it! Enjoy the ride

Cheers,
Stew

Indeed, you purchased a beautiful, well-built, little motorcycle.

You also got an excellent deal! I think you made the best color selection getting the orange version.

Me and my friend both Sold our Yamaha XT225. Then we each bought a Konker KMS200 ( QLinK XF200 ) this summer. First thing we did was changed out the front sprocket to 16T. Rode about an hour under 5000 rpm. Got home changed the oil and filter. After that it was all harder riding up to about 1000 rpm below red line. Now enjoy every minute of it.

yvr,
I'm going to order the 16 tooth today. I've added the extra tooth to all my bikes.
Interesting collection of bikes you have in the shop.
"2009 Konker KMS200,06 Lifan LF200 GY5 (SOLD). 08 Sachs Madass , Royal Enfield 500 Bullet , Royal Enfield Diesel, Chang Jiang CJ750, Honda GB500 ,Suzuki Savage , 2010 Buell XB12s CG"
How about some pictures of the RE diesel, GB500,etc?

I'm interested in doing a diesel conversion on a older gasoline RE like below.

Another one
