Group Post Gallery-Temporarily Suspended

[Jaz66]

Hi all

Had the previous gallery under my Photobucket page.
Just wanted to keep the forum separate from my stuff, so we now have our own Dedicated forum at.....dah,da,da,dah
s689.photobucket.com/albums/vv256/ntvownersforum/

Have set up some accounts on left hand side, apologies for not doing all but anyone can add themselves at any time.

You will need to log in to YOUR photobucket account then click on the above Forum gallery Link before you can access the Forum photobucket page

Hi Jaz,
Is there a way to move my pics from my personal photobucket album straight in to the sheekbiker page on the ntv users site .
Also should the site be asking me for the password as it has not done so yet.
Mick.

[Jaz66]

ah..sorry sheek not really clear is it..

to view no log in req'd to post log in needed.

on the posting in front, not sure if you mean all at once or just how to do it.

sure if you hover over one of the drop down menus under each of your pics you'll see html code which i believe is the actual pic.
Copy this and paste into your NTV photobucket under uploads.

Just as a note, IMG will paste the same pic into your post (so image is visible in post)

For multiple uploads i think a repeated use of the above before uploading maybe the way you have to do it, but am willing to be corrected by those more in the know... ;D

Will review P/bucket when I get a bit of time a post back in about it.

Cheers and ride safe

Almost have it cracked.

Log in

then go to the main area using the buttons top right.

click on the hard to see text top central over the pictures.

"Add photos & videos to this group"

then when you see the following dialog, select your album to upload from which populates the pics in the dialog.

Then click the ones you want to upload and click copy.

Have fun.

Hi Jaz & others,
Well I've got some pics in my sheekbiker page at last, they're of the old NTV650 I bought off Pops in her new clothes, I'll post more info when I've tried her out.
Mick.

[Jaz66]

Well sheek, she sure looks nice....



Pops always knew his NTV's

How much work is yours and how much is Pops?

Love the red inside the pipes, but the screens looks good but it does seem huge in the side on view.

Nice work sheek in getting the pics on the gallery.
Thanks for sharing... ;D

Hi Jaz,
There's still a bit to do and to balance the fairing theres a nice belly pan on the bench, the fairing needs to be a fair size as I've raised the bars by 50ml so I sit very upright.
Well the engine had to be replaced with a 600cc unit when the original one lost second and then started crunching at each gear change.
The front brake was in a poor state and has now had new seals, pins & pads, I still have to check out the back one, I fitted a new braided steel brake hose on the front and will do the same to the rear when I get that far.
The horns have been replaced with a pair of twintones I had in the shed really loud trumpet note.
So I have to say that most of the work is mine now, I still have to redesighn the footrests so that I can bring them forward to match the upright riding stance.
Bet there's a lot more as it's a sort of work in progress.
Mick.

[sheekbiker]

Oh and as a PS I used paint stripper on the wheels and then polished them by hand repainting the middle sections with steelwheels spray paint the back one's not finished yet.
Ive also polished the fork legs to a chrome like finish first time I've ever put so much effort in to a bike, now I'll have to keep it clean .
Mick.

[Jaz66]

Well from all that work, sheek i would say she is ALL yours... ;D

Agree that the belly pan will balance up the bike.

Don't get me wrong like the fairing, it just had that 'Big' look about it.
Made me think of those big old dress harleys.

The NTV was pretty upright as it was so i guess the fairing is now a necessity for any fast riding.

The footpags mode would be of interest to me personally.

I found the peg siting caused me to cramp up sometimes when riding the bike, obviously its the bikes fault and not an indication i am getting older.. ;D

But weirdly enough on the Rf which is much more down on the tank i don't get that at all...

be nice to see the finished article, and maybe even meet up with you and see it in the 'flesh' on a rideout.

Do keep us all updated on progress

Ride safe

[sheekbiker]

Will do mate just takes more time now I've hit the big 70, ( working on the bike I mean )
Mick.

[rj2para (Bisto)]

Well worth a trip to the Gallery.

Great work Sheek. Love the blue.

Re the ref to the 600 engine I assume its a 650 frame?

You may be interested in this mod I found on ebay some time back.

Would someone please PM me the user name & password for this gallery ?
I think I have the right password, but apparently the wrong user name.

Thanks in advance.

[rj2para (Bisto)]

done

[sheekbiker]

Thanks for thar rj interesting but a bit ugly, as far as I can see the 600/650 frames are the same.
I had seen info on Powerbronze site that implies the 650 is wider but I had no problems fitting the 600 lump.
Mick.

[rj2para (Bisto)]

Interesting I wonder if the 650 engine width changes on younger models. If not it does provide an interesting thought for the future.
