Felt really guilty today about using up SteveD's web storage by repeatedly posting pictures 'cos Trigger and Julie can't ever seem to see them, that it dawned on me that it's probably donation time again. Better for me to chivvy everyone along gently before our resident nurse kicks your a*ses or you get a posthumous roasting from that RIP member up in the clouds :D :D
Thanks for doing a great job Steve.
-
Thanks Ash.
It costs £400 per year to host. Most of the cost is in the security and anti spam software but the disc space isn't free (and my G** we use a lot of it!)
I manage and host a couple of dozen sites, mostly tiny but this one and www.tvam.org occupy Gigabytes (literally)

Resident arse kicker, me, never Ash :o :o but yes a timely reminder that this great forum does not run on fresh air so donations are vital. I'm sorry Trig and myself can't see some of the pics, we will try harder in future ;D ;D ;D

Hi Chaps.
Just a gentle and polite reminder that it is our donations that keep this forum up and running. We need some money in the kitty. If you think of how much knowledge, fun and advice we all gain from this resource and how our bikes would not be as good as they are without it, I think a handful of shrapnel every so often is a small price to pay. It's probably the most cost effective and readily available thing we have to keep our old girls on the road, lets not lose it.
Ta in advance
Julie xx

Bump. Come on you tight gits :)

Yes Ash, I noticed that. I think you and me did the groundwork though ;D ;D ;D.Maybe I was just too 'pink, fluffy and nice' about it. Trig just said it in a way you men understand (the only way Trig knows and along the same lines as our dear departed Bitsa would have done!!!!). Anyway, good to see such support for this great forum.
-
Done,
But I was going to drag it out just to get an arse kicking from Julie :P :P ;D

Donation made. The info on this site has helped me no end. I'll need it it some more over the next few months too. Cheers.
-
OK boys and girls, the kitty is getting slim and needs a bit of fattening up. As all old gits on this forum are aware it costs £400 a year to run all this great forum of information. So, it is time for a little donation to keep it going.
My biggest bug at the moment is new members joining to get info, which is saving them money and then not putting a single penny in............YES, I mean YOU ;) ;) ;)
-
I know that wasn't aimed at me but done.
I would rather pay a donation towards this site then Sky subscription

Thanks members, we are getting there ;)

Just downloaded a couple of manuals for my new 500 so felt it's time to put something back.
Thanks for the great resource.

-
done, still enjoy this forum even though i dont have a sohc any more.
-
Go on then, got to be worth a tenner.
-
Definitely. Have a tenner from me too.
-
And me. BTW, there's no such thing as 'spare change'
-
The summer is over and there is no excuses that the change in your pockets is for ice cream.
So, Bump to all those tight gits that rattle their change in their pocket and many thanks to everyone that has helped to keep this non profit making forum going, where we can share a wealth of information. And I am still giving away hard to find parts as my way of donations.
Steve donates his time and the forum needs a little boost in the kitty.
-
Anybody need a "Warning&Service" Kit Decal for your Honda Four? If you buy it from me, the money will go to the Forum Donation!!
2 kits avalaibles!!
Regards.
-
I'll buy 4 sets from you Piki - you can donate two for the forum and I'll pay the rest. Email inbound....
-
Or I'll donate and pay, whatever is easier
-
Donated !!
very worth while
-
Donated ... cheers Steve for all of your good work.

Where's the sodding donations link / button/paypal email?

Where it has always been James, top of page just along from your messages ::)
-
Ahhh - only visible once logged in. Donation made...
-
Meh, I only donated a few weeks ago - what, that was last October???
The older you get the shorter a year seems - when you're 4 its a quarter of your life, when you're 61.... You get the picture.....

Back to the top of the board, as still a little short in the kitty ::)
-
It is that time of the year boys and girls.
No its not Xmas yet, there are 12 days to Xmas, the 20th of November is not one of them ;D ;D . It is donation time before you blow all your shilling. The forum is a great place to get good info and to keep that info alive it needs to run and that costs a few shilling and Steve's valuable time .

Feeling guilty after all the help i have had here in the short space of time I have been here!
...and will donate as soon as I can. Having a bit of a tough financial time, which has prevented me buying stuff for the Honda and slowed progress to a crawl.... but I presume I can donate any time? Will throw a few £££ into the pot when I get paid after Christmas

No one will think any the worse of you - its not compulsory and the fact you brought it up shows you'll chip in when you can anyway - hope things pick up for you so you can move your project along
-
Another nice way to donate on here, particularly if you are strapped for cash is to put the odd part you will never ever need in the sales section and ask for a small donation to the site instead of taking payment yourself.
I echo everyone else on this ..no shame on anyone who is stuck for cash...I suppose we just want to at least generate enough funds communaly for SteveD to do his good stuff and keep it running.
-
The last donation reminder was last year :o
Steve gives his time so, before you guys and girls spend all your hard earned cash on ice cream's. The forum needs a small amount of your hard earned cash to keep all this information going (Not as much as the Tax man will take from you with, Very little return).
-
Donation made. I notice it's the same old faces again on the donations board. Come on you new guys put your hand in your pocket. The endless high quality information you get on here has to be worth a tenner every now and then.

I agree Roy. People come on this forum with a problem with there SOHC and we get it sorted for them and, as you say, they avoid a little contribution to the site to keep it up and running.
-
Done :)
Thanks for keeping it going Steve👍.
-
Done - thanks to Steve for facilitating this great forum
-
Payed with pleasure. Thank you for the advice and encouragement.
Cheers all, Greg

Seeing Green1 has logged in, i will put this back to the top ;)

That's because you were looking for the discount code box ;D ;D

Discount code box I wish ;D ;D
-
Donation made. Thanks very much for all the advice.
-
Done ;D ;D ;D
-
I'm very sorry if I missed some important info, how can I make donation? I went through this thread but did not find relevant info...
-
At the top of the page/screen between Members and Aladdins cave is Donations ;)
-
Donation done ;)
-
As the riding season is over and you have no excuse that you have blown your last tenner of some fuel, spark plugs or one of those fancy key rings that match your bike. I thought I would get this in before you blow all that change on Xmas presents, that will be in the recycling bin by Easter.
For those who are unaware, this forum costs over £400 a year to run and relies on donations from members to keep all this information alive, as a non profit making SOHC service. All donations go to the running costs and Steve does the rest for FREE
-
Donation made. Thanks to Steve for keeping the site going, it’s very useful for inexperienced mechanics such as me and to people such as Julie and K2-K6 who always come back with prompt and helpful replies.
-
Donated with pleasure. Thanks for all the advice given and yet to come.
Greg

I paid in ¥. Works out cheaper. 😁

All done 👍
-
Done!
Thank you to all members for all of the help and advice I have received so far.
A big thank you also goes to Steve for keeping the forum running so smoothly.
-
Thank you to all the regulars and newcomers.
I've hosted this site since 2007 and moderated on the US site from 2001-2010 (still do sometimes...) and it is a pleasure to see how angst-free it is. OK, we disagree sometimes, but trust me, I used to moderate gun and politics threads over there...
As a bit of an Xmas gift, see Announcements :)

Done.

When I went to pay I noticed Rosco made an extra donation, as I softened some carb rubbers for him... you didn't need to Ross but
a big thanks as it keeps this wonderful forum ticking.
-
Similar, eight0 made a fair donation when i did his rear wheel hub. All good stuff. ;)
-
Glad to Ash Its because of this forum that you did me a favour Plus I've had lots of help from experienced members who have put me right on a number of issues, and to those i'd like to say thank you Ross
-
Sean (Arch Stanton) dropped off some Bomber wheel hubs for me free of charge. So I have made another donation to the forum as thanks. Cheers Sean, nice to meet you.
-
OK, It is that time of the year when the kitty, piggy bank, forum running funds or what ever you want to call it needs a top up of donations so, before all you members out there spend all that cash you have saved during lockdown gets spent on a new bucket and spade, ice creams, burgers or any of that cheap fuel that is about at the moment, spare a thought on how this forum is run.
I can't remember when we had a big collection for the running of this site ( maybe before the new year ) but, give what you can. Donation box is at the top of your screen between Members and Aladdin's cave.
-
Donation made, well worth it, where else will you find this level of sarcasm and help! ;) ;)
-
Thank you Trigger for resurrecting this every 6 months.
I’ve said before that it costs about £400 per annum to host this site.
My hosting company keeps offering me cheaper deals to show their advertising and Tapatalk are almost mercenary in their attempts to persuade me to “monetize your forum”.
I won’t do that.
Thanks to everyone for their donations.

Thanks Steve for the hard work in maintaining such a great Forum.
I’ve been involved with a few over the passed few years; airlines, Kombi, boats, stalking various others digging out infos on projects etc... and observed very different and disappointing decorums to what you have nurtured on the UK SOHC.
(Other) Folk, all too often are quick to be insulted; rude; tetchy, .... and a bugbear of mine, aloof with self proclaimed authority and matching sado Usernames.
BUT, for whatever reason this Forum is pure professionalism and friendliness - I guess a credit not only to you but to us all.
Cheers again, a few £ very well spent. (and a 2nd thank you for no bloody adverts...😠)
