Maybe they were a victim of the forum swap.

I do have the original write-ups and pics but unable post them in the FAQ forum. I would have to go over the Katana front end swap since I do not have the pic names in the write-up I have. If someone wants them, I could post them again.....but.....it would be nice if the original thread could be resurrected.

Let know if you find something out. They were pretty long posts, especially the Katana install. Not sure if that had anything to do with it. kerry has the pics hosted on his site but I do not know the links and he has not been around in a while. I can post the pics but I use photobucket and have limited bandwidth, not that I ever max out.

Well the sql tables had some issues that we discovered upon attempting to import into the new database.

Do me a favor give me a short string to search.  Such as this post: http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=13673.0 started with the text "whatever the first few words started with"  This would make my life easier when searching through hundreds of thousands of fields.

Same for the other(s)

I'l do my best to pull it out.

OK The tags got hosed.  I fixed the images but the rest is a bit ugly.  maybe if you have time, and feel like it you could go in and clean it up a bit.

The info is all there as best I can tell.

OK thanks to google cache I was able to recover normal text.  The bold/size stuff is gone but it looks normal anyhow.

Feel free to check it for missing info and also pretty it up if you want.

Thanks for digging them out.  :thumb:

I cannot edit my posts in the FAQ forum now. I thought that we could before. Guess it is up to the mod gods now.  :bowdown: (now if I was a mod....)

Looks like all of the info info is there but there are a couple of mangled picture links.

For http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=13673.0

This mess:

Knuckles for Katana clip-ons mounted underneath the triple clamp. They are factory mounted above the clamp.

should read (basically just take out the extra crap after the img tags):
