Greetings,
A while back I started a thread about the seat on my NTV and the fact that I couldn't get used to it as it was so slippery. I finally gave up on trying to deal with it and replaced the old cover with a non-slip one from Louis. It took me a bit of time to get it on but the results are good (no creases) and it is great to ride on. No slipping at all, so I can now sit where I want to on the bike. Total cost of 39 euros. The new seat doesn't look as good as a professional one but is great for the time being. Now if I could just figure out how to change the seals in the front forks everything would be dandy. Anyone have any expereince doing this? I've never attempted it before but think it must be possible without too much difficulty.
I'll try to get a picture of the new seat on this thread.
Cheers,
Dave

How can I upload a photo? Haven't figured it out yet. Quite a legthy post here about how to post pics...  And for all others who may want to do something but not sure how, ask by all means but maybe while you are waiting for help, even if you have been here for a while, also take a peak in Newbies-main board page. We did put a lot of stuff up in there to let newcomers get the most out of the forum in their early days until they got their feet steady on the forum, but still applicable to less newish members. So most 'How to' things got posted in there but if any one does get a problem, like i said ask and some one will post in some help pretty soon.... ;D |

Skogs to get the pic up you are half way there... You got the 'image' thing in place..( [img*] [/img] ) you just need to go find your pic and paste the 'copy image location' in between the two sets of brackets like this  (Ignore the *. Thats is there just so you can see what you need to post  Which if you try yourself..(Hover over my avatar, right click and click, copy image location . Hit the pic icon above ( ![]() [/img] ) and paste the Image location in between and you should see this happy days ;D now all you got to do is find your pic...photobucket etc or anywhere already on line and post away. (nb. can not be done direct from you computer must be uploaded and/or on the internet some where) |

Like Jaz said: the important thing to remember is that an image must already be on the internet somewhere.
Services like imageshack.us and google's picasaweb.google.com are great for quickly putting an image online.
