Just having a go at saving the Nikfubar rebuild threads while his Photobucket pics are still available ..
This is a build Nik started in November 2014 using a Suzuki GT500 engine, GS500 frame, Honda NC29 rear end and NC24 front end.
Nik unfortunately passed away on the 26th of September 2015.

I can screen-grab, crop and re-post everything easily enough, it's just working out the best way to do it so that every member can see them no matter what device they use to access the forum.

Well done Mark,
As you know I was going to rebuild his blue hybrid with twin spa frame but never seem to have the spare time to do it.
Deleted my Photof^^kit account in disgust so can assess the pix now.
My only comment would be the small text size, but I understand this is just a screenshot too so you can’t change it.

Good on you mark
I wondered if it could be done by someone to preserve his builds
I say copy the threads exactly as they were, it was what he typed and his responses to comments
Obviously if there is any pointless crap remove that

I've had to delete everything and start again so the pics etc will be missing until I get them back up |

My only comment would be the small text size, but I understand this is just a screenshot too so you can’t change it. I have now gone back and screen-grabbed each pic individually, re-sized each one so they are all the same width, then zoomed in on the text on Nik's original post with Firefox and screen-grabbed the text separately so that it is larger but not blurred. It takes twice as long to do it this way but hopefully everything works better now than it did with my first attempt |
