Personally, I've been on motorcycle forums for 10 years now....there not much left motorcycle related for me to talk about. HOWEVER, I find a lot of joy in discussing non-moto related subjects with fellow motorcyclists. In fact, I really ONLY like discussing things with motorcyclists because I don't relate to those who don't ride very well.

It seems like most of the forum members here have been around for a while to so that could be part of it.

I almost did a picture how to for my plug/patch.

But, the majority of people think its akin to raping puppies, so I didn't do it.

I rode my VFR's front tire all the way down to the wear bars (never dont that before) and today Im planning on getting some new rubber put on but Id dont think anybody cares about that. Id rather talk about how the government is using swine flu to kill off the elderly.

I just swapped out the front on the futura before it go tot that point. Got to finally use my no mar changer. All went well aside from crushing a finger between the rim and the bar that releases the tire from the unit.

Have you ever seen the article on the 10 "types" of facebook status updates?

Well much like that article there should be one written about those threads that seem to rear their ugly head on a semi-annual basis.

This one has to top the list for MC related boards.

But people could care less. For one thing, the bike is 30 years old, who the hell cares about synching carbs? Real bikes don't have carbs.

Then you have people that will spend their time telling you how you did it wrong, that it has the wrong oil, even though you've put 50,000 miles on the damn thing and it doesn't use any oil.

So that's why I don't post in the tech section. And I'm female. What the hell would I know about bikes?

I hear ya, I have similar on building a chop. But not much interest here.

Tech is just one example of what we could have here that is still MC related.
