Just a quick note to say hello.
Have just taken delivery of '93 888 Strada after years of contemplation. Don't know why I waited so long, beuatiful machine.
Bought from John E Vines in Rayleigh and delivered up to Aberdeen. Exceptional condition with a few extras on it.
No doubt be back on for advice in future,
Welcome to the mad house Alan.
You've come to the right place :D

Once I get sorted with new camera will take a couple of photos of whole bike.

Right enought we get far too much snow up here in Aberdeen, could be that.
Who knows how it's not working, simply attaching file when posting reply, do you have to resize jpg? Any clues appreciated?

Alan, you have to get the picture hosted somewhere (try ImageShack - www.imageshack.us) then attach the picture from there.

Nope...........
The image reference looks ok but why is the file size 0b ?
When you compose your reply, use the 7th button from the left just above the reply window to attach the image url
Oh yes....use the 'post reply' button beneath the post to bring up all the reply features rather than the 'quick reply' at the bottom of the thread

Tasty looking bike - welcome to the best club ever. You can't go wrong here.
Mine's a pint of Carling at the moment. .... give me 5 minutes and that will be a something stronger ... oh ok, make that a Bundaberg Rum and coke.
