Hello all. My name is Carmine and Im 46 and live in Basingstoke. I have recently bought a well used 98 R1 4xv, (had a new one back in 99 for 2 years). Im currently restoring it and hope to be on the road for feb / march 2017. Ive fitted brand new Abarth livery plastics and will be having the tank sprayed in a brighter white.

Welcome in Carmine. Not far up the road from me in Winchester mate. Few of us round the south central so hopefully catch up in the spring when she's ready. Enjoy the forum.

Here you go bud ;)
"get yourself a free photobucket account & follow the idiots guide to posting pics from your pc
posting.php?mode=reply&f=6&t=10659
if you don't want to open a photobucket account then an alternative is go to
http://tinypic.com/

1 - "choose file" and browse to the image you wish to upload from your PC
2 - In the "resize" drop down choose either 15" or 17" screen (15 is enough and fast too)
3 - Press "upload now" where it will ask you to type in a couple of words to confirm you are a human being and not an automated program.
4 - Once done copy the text from the "IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards" field
5 - Then just paste it exactly as is in to your message.

or you can post direct from your not so smart phone using tapawank (tapatalk) it's great for posting pic's & notifications but wank for viewing the forum ;)"
