If you want to copy a pic from eblob - or anywhere else, hover over it and click the right mouse or pad button and you will have a window with several options. The bottom one is 'properties'. Click this and you will see the url - or address of the picture. Copy this and paste it in your post with square brackets and img before and square brackets and /img after like this Image
so the link that you posted will look like [ img]https://i.ebayimg.com/thumbs/images/g/P ... s-l200.jpg[/img ]
I've actually put a space in the square brackets so that you can see how it's done, but without the space it looks like;

not
Which just takes you to the entire ebay post.

You can do this with most pics on the internet by the way.
That's why there is no such thing as safely posting anything as it's so easy to copy.

Any other probs, just ask Uncle Alan (that's me BTW!)
Cos I know lots about everything.

Can anyone identify the alloy wheels on my old 380? The 550 wheels below are different again, so there were at least a couple of people knocking them out. The Allspeeds look a nice shape, and it looks like you get to keep the centre stand.

Regards, Gary.

I think that the Alloy's are Melber's on the 380, and Lester's on the 550.

Hi Gary.
I’ve just taken delivery of these beauties.
Higgspeeds. Dave Higgs is a gent. Approx 6 weeks to make & delivered to the house.
I would have preferred to stay with the standard pipes but the cost of re-chroming/ refebing my originals was approx twice that of the higgspeeds. You do loose the Center stand through!
Planning to fit them in January. I’ll keep you posted
