Hi Joan! You'll need to use a photo hosting site on the web and post the link here.

No, we can't have that. That won't do at all.
Get yourself a free photo hosting site - PictureTrail, Photobucket, Smugmug, TinyPic, etc

Even considering this dumb thing and rust filling up the other side of the tank...

Joan, that is very pretty. Competent looking, too. Please tell more.
ps: I think the blue sleeping mat should be a permanent accessory.
Edit in response to your edit: Oo, nasty shit in tank.

What do you want to know?
I bought this bewdy R65 in 1997 for 1400 because it was the least expensive beemer I could find?
The fairing from a salvage yard was added over the winter.
After filling up three Napa fuel filters on the trip, after returning I took the tank to Performance Radiator for acid etching and relining, and ordered a new petcock.
