    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

right click on your pictures on your flicker account and select copy image location

then when your here creating a post, click on the little icon the looks like a letter with a postage stamp on it, the 7th from the left, a box will pop up asking for the url, paste the image location you just copied and click OK

and submit post as you normally do

OR

in your flicker account, click on your picture, at the top of the picture and a bit to the right, you will see "SHARE" click on that, it will give you the url to your picture, copy that url, and using the above instructions it will work the same way

the other way is you will see more of your pics at once and you can right click on any one of them, instead of working with just one pic at a time

That breather cover looks good!

Also, I just noticed your intake boots look nice and black too, are they new? They look it...
 
Thanks! They aren't new, well not that I know of. I just washed them.

Cool, give 'em a good squeeze before using them.

If they're quite rubbery and supple you should be good to go as long as you replace the O rings under them, otherwise new ones are reasonably cheap ($25 each from Boulevard I think).
 
Mate she's looking clean, nice!

I don't recall having a stripe like that on mine but that doesn't necessarily mean anything...

Have you got those side covers mounted properly now? If so well done!

Christmas morning here, so Merry Christmas :)
 
Tonight I got the tank stripped down. I also got some powder coating on the carbs done.

What did you strip the tank with ? paint stripper, wire wheel, sandpaper ? or a combination of all ? Have to do mine soon as well, I tried some cheap paint stripper, it didn't even take the clear coat off....LOL
