Welcome to the forum javifoto,
For all those who are NOT V.I.P. members and want to show a photo:
Postimage is simple enough: https://postimages.org/
Download image to your computer, upload image to postimage once you log on. click on resize my image to 1024X768, save ,(this is the max size to upload to this forum. L.A.B. correct me if I'm wrong) click No expiration ,then right click image for options, look for copy to forum or other website, click and you should see a copy icon pop up. Then open this forum to your thread that you want the image to go to and paste image to your conversation . job done!
Don't use Photobucket... they screwed us....but that's another story.
Cheers,
Tom

Welcome! Just as you have questions for members of the forum, You'll find we are all trying to improve our knowledge. So I have a question for you, What shocks are you running on your bikes? Thanks and welcome again!

On both of them run fully adjustable YSS shocks but they are terrible hard and I am already working on replacing them most probably with Wilbers who are probably far Better.

Yes, there used to be a maximum image size that would fit the forum page or the image would be cropped from the RH side to fit, however, that no longer applies (since the forum upgrade before last?) so a large image should show at a reduced size.

Hello,

I am new at the forum and new on British motorcycles restoration. I just bought a Commando 850 MK3 Electric start that needs a good batch of hours to make it run.
I am 52 years old and after owning many bikes along the years I started four years ago to make my own cafe racer from a Ducati Sportclassic 2008, since the result was quite good I decided to restore myself a BMW R90/6 from 1975.
I become a classic bike passionate and now I look for a higher challenge.
I follow your forum since time ago and I find it fantastic, I hope to get a nice looking and fluid riding bike out of the Commando with a your help and advice.
I do not know how to post pictures of my restored bikes and of my actual Commando in not the best shape.

And this is my classic bike last project, a BMW R90/6 from 1975 transformed into a bobber style and lighten 24kgs over original weight.

Nice hot rods! I have always been a BMW and Ducati fan but my Norton is my true love.
