Default Hi from Manchester, UK

Hello, I have just acquired my 1982 Sportster Ironhead XLH1000 last night!
It's only been in the UK for a couple of weeks (from the USA)
I'm currently waiting impatiently to receiving the new British reg numberplate..
Fingers crossed, everything should be fine with the new registration!
Regards to everyone
Yves

Morning Paul,
I've only sent the paperwork to DVLA so I'm not able to ride the Ironhead yet but I could still take part on my T100.

1PM start??

Cheers
Yves

I'm not able to upload any jpeg pictures here.. Followed the instructions given but so far without any success..

"Sportster_web.jpg:
Exceeds your quota by 171.4 KB"

171.4kb is the size of the jpeg (pretty small)
What am I doing wrong?
