What is the big deal with Bart and Bart's many screen names?

I'm with Chop on this, and what chaps me is the fact that this kid is thumbing his nose at everyone including yahoo, giving really stupid, positively imbecilic answers and cannot seem to ask questions without putting an anti Harley spin on.... if we were to ask & answer ourselves and behave like he does with all the accounts we would have yahoo breathing down our necks in a hurry. Unfortunately I have joined the blocked club as he cannot possibly counter common sense and an educated answer (half the time I answer others it goes right over his head) I just gotta hope I haven't made it to his 'hit' list...

I do know this: if you get into it with him, protect your backside and everything below the belt. Thats where he goes. Nobody likes a cheap shot artist.

Yes, it seems he can dish it out but cannot take it.

-and there he is just down the block there on year round rider's question having a pity party for himself, trying to curry favor and sympathy, yet he doesn't understand why he gets T/D'ed all the time. WHAT!?!? Spewing anti HD hate speech and igniting/fanning the flames of subversiveness? Reveling in his malevolent and rabid and wholly inaccurate stereotypical views of Harley riders, painting us all with the wide brush of illustrating us as affluent condescending, egotistical jerks that spit on him and threaten him with physical harm. Carrying a chip on his shoulder and claiming he was 'snubbed' at a HD dealer, when the reality is, the only ones that know what happened is the dealer and him. (he probably simply did not meet credit requirements and became bitter over it... reacting like an 7 year old when an adult says "NO!!" ) Even going so far as saying he loves HD then hates them, then loves them,... then hates them again. Another example of childlike behavior. Asking what he should say in a bar where Harley's are parked? Constantly provoking HD riders is trying to win friends and find people to ride with?? On what planet?

-But he wonders why he has gained a reputation, and is universally hated? Really?? -Even when Choppy and myself offer the olive branch of peace he wants to spit in our eye.... and still he wonders.

-and describes himself as a "way better rider"? How arrogant and narcissistic is that?? The behavior he has related about his riding is not anyone with a lick of sense, or I would ride with, and if he expects anyone else to he is going to have to grow up and lose the "I'm a better rider", cavalier 'tude...quick. He says he gets frustrated and thinks he can ride another's bike better, yet he has to realize that bike is being operated the way the owner intends for it to be. This is clearly immature and dangerous thinking.

No,... there will be no sympathy extended here. Not until he proves something, not so much to me, but this community. Lets see if he knows how to be reticent. Actions, not words. Empty gestures mean diddly squat. Lets see your true colors bart...

You all aren't in such an exclusive club. I'm blocked and I even stuck up for him, once.

I agree with Chop and polarbear:

Bart has given out bad answers on purpose.

I like to take a jab at the HD cultists, once in a while but, in general, this section is not the place to f#ck around. Its not OK to tell novice riders that a 125hp sport bike or Sportster is a good first ride for a 100 lb. woman or that synthetic oil is "too slippery" or any of the other uninformed advice that appears in this section, at times.

I try to ignore Bart, the twinkie cheerleaders ("Who all here likes motorcycles, people?") and the other goobers who are just playing in the section. If we don't feed them, maybe they'll die off.

Once again I find myself agreeing with bluff mike.

I too stuck up for the original Bart once upon a time.

Since then, he not only gave bad info - he tried to give it to me!

Seriously sloppy performance, that.

I admit I got confused at one time - there were too many Barts, and I wasn't keeping track. Since then I decided to ignore most of the childishness.

Don't get me wrong..... As a guy who rode Hondas while the Harleys were parked I gave my share. On a Harley now, I restrict myself somewhat. (yeah, right. I still like some rice).

I cant speak for everyone else but heres my beef with the barts: I don't mind the Harley bashing at all I know that new Harley's a quality machine,its the A.M.F. shovel heads and iron sportsters that were junk and the Legacy doesn't go away.My problem with the Barts are that he gives out BAD info [plain out wrong answers!] Because he has no technical knowledge at all.

I have made his blocked list too.It's actually a blessing!He's nothing but a little punk that sits home hiding behind his computer.He's punk enough to post his stupid questions here, but not man enough to hear the answers.He's just a loser and the unblocked people here will fill in for us telling him so til he blocks them too.Another year there won't be anyone on his unblocked list to answer his crap.Maybe then he'll go away.

Wow, LOL you earned yourself a spot on Barts prestigious blocked user list? I guess congrats are in order. :)

Edit: I stand corrected...looks like I earned a place on it myself.

i answered one of his[maybe her] questions as honestly as i could and told him that the guy selling the bike probly knew who he was and did not want to be annoyed by him coming to his house and i think i must have hurt bartholemews feelings.i hope his disorder doesnt make him go out and do something stupid.looks like he can dish it out but cant take.

yes i dident know why i kept on seeing bart's all over the motorbike section

I think he's yankin' everyone's chain to get a rise out of them. Just don't play his game and he'll go away.
