Not far from you!
Hi Chaps

Although i have a rear paddock stand and now a ABBA stand im still not geared up for getting the front wheel of the ground.

Ive purchased some wheel rim decals and want to be able to turn the wheel while sticking them on!

Any alternative methods you chaps know of just for a 5 min job? Perhaps axel stands?

Thanks in advance :thumbup
 
Mate. Either get yourself a front paddock stand - very useful at tyre changing time as well - or hang it off a roof beam in your garage - if it's strong enough.
You could use axle stands with the Abba but you've still got to get it up on them.
I picked up my front stand for 18 quid off Ebay second hand - well worth getting one.
 
Mark , how about Abba stand to get it pivoting about centre then jack under cases ( with a piece of wood between of course) at front.

Thats how I do it with the Sv, never tried it with the Mille tho' but should work.

How did you get on with the Alphacam crack ?

Thanks for the replys guys :thumbup

Like you say Simon i really should invest in a front paddock stand though for the time being i have a jack so i might just giive that ago.

Exactly where is the best place to jack it???

Ian, yes i downloaded that file but i cant find the setup.exe file to install it. All ive managed to do is to unzip it and view its contents.

Any ideas on that?
 
Bit of a thread hi-jack this, but as it's your thread anyway:thumbup

The "setup.exe" file they are referring to will be part of the legit copy ( you would have to install this first)

Don't know how Alphacam's protection works ( probably dongled ?)

On EdgeCam the only file you need is a "Client License Server key" this is just a small file that you use to overwrite the file of the same name in the original (legit) install.

On most crack's I've used there are usually 2 or 3 files, one is the altered file,then usually an instruction on how to install it ( usually written in pidgen english ) and sometimes a little logo and telling you who did the honours of reverse engineering the crack.

If you were looking for a complete independent cracked copy bear in mind it would probably be DVD length and the cracker would probably want you to buy it.

This is the usual way,install a demo/works etc copy, then just apply a small mod to overwrite the inbuilt protection .

Or so I've heard :pirate:pirate

Another thing to bear in mind is that different issues ie V1, V2 , etc will need different cracks applied. So you have to match the correct versions.

Thanks Ian Mate!!!!

I understand what your saying, will get V5 tomorrow then try :thumbup
