Blackstorm.

I am no expert but I managed to get a video onto the 'Feeling good......Wheelie' thread.

You need to get an FTP program. I think this stands for File Transfer Protocol. I down loaded 'FTP Explorer' FOC from the net. You then need to set up your own web site. Most ISP's give you 10 megabytes for you to use as your personal web page. I did a very simple Powerpoint slide with links to photo's and video's which were stored in the same directory as the Powerpoint file, and selected the option to 'Save as HTML' option. This html file and photo's can then be uploaded from your PC to the ISP's server using the FTP program. You will need the details for the ISP server and a password. You should be able to get this from your ISP home page.

Once you have your own web page and have your piccy's posted on it or linked to it then you can show them on this site by linking to them.

I hope this helps. I managed to muddle through after a bit of mucking about.

Actually, some people mearly starve themselves, beg the gods, and sell copious quantities of bodily fluids.... and then max out they're credit cards.....

The forks were simple to fit. As far as I've been able to tell, most all honda steering stems and steering head bearings are the same between models. Pretty much any combo of forks and triples will swap between between any Honda (newer model of course).

This is Blackstorms Firestorm/Superhawk. Check out the Akro high pipes! You don't see those very often!

Definitely one of the sweeter lookin' birds I've seen.

It is a very very pretty bike without being over the top and it is not so precious that you are afraid to use it. Proper bike !!!

Your spot on. Shes my pride and joy

and Ive allways dreamed of having a bike like this

but have no fear it will be getting used on both road

and track

at every opportunity. I'l just have to invest in a lot of polish and rags

cause I want it to look as smart as it does now for a lot of miles to come

Blackstorm.

I have a couple of mates down in Wallingford. We sometimes meet at that bike shop on the A41 out of Bicester for a coffee and a burger. I will give you a shout next time I am down, I would like to see your bike in the flesh. Are there a good set of roads for a blast around there ? I dont know the area well enough and the few good twisty bits I have found seem to have a village every 100 yards or so.

Sounds good to me. I'm not to sure of the roads around Bicester but I'm sure we can find something to keep us smiling. I will be quite busy with work and family stuff for a while but give me a call it would be good to see you. I'l even buy the coffees.
All the best
