Looks like photobucket is no longer hosting free images and I'll be damned if I'm going to pay $400 a month for the privilege. I'm not sure what course I'll take with this thread as I feel it has been useful for many. It may be that I'll finally write the book I've been threatening to do, in which case the thread will disappear from the site, which will kind of defeat its purpose; that is to make the information free and easily accessible to all. I apologize for the inconvenience. Uploading the images to the site is an option I'll have to consider. Stay tuned for further developments.

Especially for a reference thread like yours, photobucket's recent decision is a huge disappointment.

I'd buy that in digital so I can put it in a binder

Hello,

I'm new on the forum and working my 1st CB550 project, is this pdf still available somewhere. I've looked around on the forum but was not able to find it.

If you read Restoration Fan's post about 12 posts higher you might find it...

Thanks. I found the link before, however it didn't work. Turns out the link works at my computer at home, and is blocked at work  :). I guess I shouldn't browse forums at work...
