good luck melon,hope the bike works better than the link.

Cheers,

The link should work for most people in NZ, but not everyone due to some weird connection problems at home.

I'll try and stick some pics up somewhere that everyone can see them.

Its because you're hosting on a non standard port 8080 which won't be allowed through most corporate networks proxies/firewalls i.e. people at work.

Should work fine for home users though.

I had one of those but the wheel fell off!

It's actually just because we're on 100mbit wix, with a weird routing arrangement for anything non-wix to go through a 64k wireless link, so people who are with an isp that peers at wix will be able to view it, and it just won't work for anyone else.

Managed to get full insurance from swann through kiwibike.co.nz at a pretty reasonable rate thanks to one of the recommendations in another thread on here too

very nice condition for a 91vintage.
has it got really low miles?
or has someone recently had it fixed up? (after a crash maybe

)

It's done 70km's but had a new engine put in 10km's ago aparrently.

It checked out fine the other day anyway.

I've got the old blown engine sitting at home.
