Why I've not been here in a while..........

Right,...... I've been busy putting miles on the old 81 650, but with an opportunity to come a little more up to date, I decided to go ahead and purchase a newer machine ........ even though it's more powerful and efficient, it's still functional transportation for daily use. With yours truly at the...

Re: My 1980 Honda CB650

I agree with Volker, in fact, you probably won't like riding that crappy old bike at all,.....hell, I don't want to insult your intelligence, so I'll give you $20 for it and try to find a back corner to throw it in just so you don't have to look at it any longer.......... :wink:

Fairing's gonna help ........

Well today was about +2 or 3 C so I went for it.......Rode into town first, then back home to decide if I could go to Campbell River (45 mins up the hwy at 90 kph). It was a tad cool, but once I get some proper riding attire, things will be all good. It really is nice to sit in behind the fairing th...

I think this may be what is being asked........ how can a picture be attached to a post so that in the thread, it shows as part of the body and not as a link to an external location.
