It sometimes depends on the browser. The photos worked fine for me the other day. I could not open them today, but I did not try them all.

I’ve been having an issue with the attachment style of photos, where when I click on the thumbnail, the large photo only partially loads. This happens mostly on my tablet, my desktop generally works fine. I found that on the tablet, if there is more than one thumbnail, after the first one partially loads, if I click the arrows to cycle through the rest, they will eventually fully display.
Thanks Steve, That's something like I am getting, Richard's won't work at all, David's given me 2 out of 3, Just looked again and got 2 and a half !!.
I got 2 and a bit, Then it spat the bit out and left me with just the 2.
I have not had this Laptop long and it's second hand with Windows 10.
Google is doing something, Don't know if that is the problem.
I could use 2 Browsers on my old computer, But not sure with this one,
Don't want to mess it up.
Cheers Bill.

Hi Roy,
Yes the seat does look a bit odd, but it is jacked up by the bike being on the stand. Having said that, it could do with being a bit lower and it would be easy to slot the holes in the seat support plates, but that would throw the exhaust pipe out of line. As it is, the pipe simply plugs into the silencer and on to a stub pipe at the head end. Just by unclipping the two springs holding the head end to the exhaust pipe nut, the pipe comes loose. Anyway, that's the way Ogri (hero, after G Brown) would have fitted it.
I will take some close up shots of some of the details being as people seem interested in the bike.
Regards Richard.

Richard,
That is a really, really good looking machine. Thanks for the write up.

As promised some pics of some of the details of the special. This lot is about the front forks. As the donor bike carried all its instruments on the bodywork, you will see that there is nothing to mount the clocks on. So I had to machine a piece that clamped around the upper column that contains the spring unit. The headlamp is mounted on the casting that joins the suspension links. The last shot shows the swinging arm pivot welded to the front of the cut back Honda swinging arm.

I am on a roll so will carry on. The first and last shots show the battery fitted in between the seat mounting plates. The middle shot shows, not very well, that the bottom of the suspension unit fits on to a pin that is on an eccentric shaft. At the moment it is set at the highest setting, hence the reason for the seat sitting so high. road testing will determine where the best setting is. This should help to keep Roy happy.
Regards Richard.
