Re: Thoughts as of late.
Yup, things have been getting a bit testy here lately. Thanks for stepping in and doing the Boss thing. Might just be winter coming on for some of us but there is still no reason to start snapping at each other. We all have our opinions but sometimes things get a little out of hand and a topic makes a hard left turn into the crapper.
Really can't fault a new member sitting back and being afraid to bring something up for fear of being beat up verbally and getting abuse heaped upon them. Having been a member here for almost 2 years now I can honestly say the general attitude and well mannered comments of the membership here were/are a real treat compared to some forums I have lurked on.
We need to play nice. We are after all a bunch of adults not spoiled brats and should conduct ourselves accordingly. I do not always comment on a proposed mod to a bike. If I don't agree with the idea, well it isn't my bike and beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If it is a potentially dangerous mod then I will comment. I believe a mod should serve some function to make a bike more comfy or safe but that is just my opinion.
I may not agree with some visual mods that serve no useful purpose but then again it is not my bike and so I just let it be. Some mods are truly innovative and appealling even to me. These are the mods I will comment on. I think we need a more positive attitude here and less back biting and verbal slaps to the back of the head.
The few mods to Lynda's GZ have been greeted with positive comments and a few PM's for more info. That is what it is all about. This is a fine forum for owners of small bikes with a common goal. Let's not spoil a good thing. Now back to your regular programming.
