Something that has me wondering?

I used to come to try to help some of the folks asking legitimate questions. More than enough you get a lot of fools and children on here asking bogus questions.

I also presented a question similar to yours about a year ago.

Now I check in on occasion and weed through the BS and answer some questions.

The Harley rider thing....that will go one forever. I used to ride with a few large groups, then just one for years and it gets old fast. I still wave to all riders regardless of what brand or type of bike they ride.

I've become a lone rider of sorts...no more group riding, poker runs, parades or whatever. I've broken away from all of that crap to truly become a free spirit.

1. Not everyone who posts questions has a bike, but a lot of younger males are interested in them and the most interesting thing to them is HOW FAST THEY GO.

2. A lot of people are being intoduced to the world of motorcycles by oil prices. They are complete novices and need advice to suit them.

3. Harleys vs the rest is an old rivalry that will never die: as long as people keep it friendly I don't have a problem with it. I suspect the anti Harley troll was banned anyway.

4. The only thing I have a problem with is people recommending supersports bikes to beginners: where's your head at?

Of course lots of teeny boppers asking dumb questions. What I hate is when someone asks a question and gets some great answers but chooses the 'wrong' answer that fits his preconceived wrong opinion that he just wanted confirmed.

I didn't come here to get into a war with Harley Guy, ignorant Harley Guy posts were here when I arrived and it's just too tempting not to take potshots at the glass house of Harley after hearing the typical ignorant remarks a few too many times.

Since I started reading this site, I have said it is the best comic strip I have ever seen. There are some very good questions, of which I try to give a good, honest answer, as do several others. I really hate it when a chap has an honest question, and some goon gives a false or smart answer. The stupid questions, just laugh at them and go on.

It is like a small noise in the back ground not worth paying attention. I do not care who does wheelies and power has nothing to do with doing a wheelie. I ride for the same reasons you I enjoy it.

i agree with you i have grown up with motorcycles since i was 4 i have had one and its a passion but you should be comfortable on the bike be able to reach the ground not tip toed and i also drag race and one of the girls i race with was telling a little girl interested in riding she should be so comfy she could sleep on it

Like You, I primarily come here for amusement/entertainment but I do offer answers on questions I feel I am Qualified to Address. Any forum such as this will have its share of trolls but I find that if You don't feed them they fade away.

Does Joe B's fabrications fit into what you are talking about?

joe.....just go away, pos know-nothing troll
