At the bottom of a thumbnail in the photobucket album there will be an IMG code such as
[ IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v161/ ... street.jpg[/IMG]

Copy and paste the code into a post here and you should end up with a picture.

Preview the post first to make sure as you can't edit a post later. :rolleyes: :lol:

Its coming along slowly, new spark plugs fitted, carbs cleaned and balanced, adjusted pre load on forks and sorted fork seals, tidied underseat wiring, fitted flush indicators ( i know not to everyones taste) and obligatory fold up number plate ( to prevent cloning officer ) plastics removed and belly pan from germany and cut down front subframe ready for new one to be welded to take new streetfighter fairing ( should be on in next 2 weeks hopefully ), just got some side panels from a crosser which i have modded to fit, just got to find time to spray them, oh and new handlebar grips and bar ends sanded and sprayed basically everything i can do on a very limited budget will post some more pics tomorrow of the side panels on ( just test fitted for now) anyhoo that's were i'm upto for now

Basically its my fault. The forum needs updating to the latest version and to put it honestly...I dont know how; without destroying all the work Ellie put in to customize it to its current states

When I took over full running of the place i'd never done any sort of web building, so had to learn html to be able to update the main site. I've just about got my head around that enough to keep moving the main site along, but its a slow process
I've not even tried to learn PHP yet so afraid we'll have to make do with photobucket for the time being
sorry....

In truth it was an ok bike when i got it, but the photo's dont really do it justice, there was quite a lot of damage to the plastics and the top fairing on the other side has quite a large piece snapped off ( which i could fabricate) but the real reason i wanted to streetfighter it is i have had four exups and they bring out the evil in me, with a fairing you can hit stupid speeds and it still feels like your hardly moving as i am sure you all know, since i have removed the fairing and can feel the wind buffeting me at speed i think you get a much better sensation of speed at licence saving speeds, in addition i am not going to have the money to swap it so i like the idea of it evolving over time hence the fitment of the ktm side panels ( pics to follow today ) i just want to ride something a bit different without breaking the bank that i can put my own stamp on which i suppose is the whole point of streetfighters :)
