Have Bike Now What??

[Dupo]

Tranquility, sounds like your husband belongs to shadowriders.net I probably know who he is, i frequent that forum every day (patrick is a member there too).

Its not a 'not so nice' forum ... its an 'adult' forum for those with a thick skin and an open mind .... and a mindset that you wanna mod your bike. Once you get through the 'noob' hazing, which is sometimes pretty intense (hence the thick skin), those guys will bend over backwards to help you.

It's amazing how the perception of a message board is so wildly different from one person to the next. SR is a great site, filled with good information and people who are generally a lot more willing to help, even when compared to here. Dupo's dead right about the open-mindedness and having a thick skin over there. You can be a surly, rotten d-bag elsewhere, and people tend to take it. But over there, you're called out for what you are and you're forced to deal with it. If you don't deal with it on your own, you're rightfully culled from the herd.

It's a little more life-like, than the Disney-concocted lovepit we have going here. WW is right in the other thread...we are kind of the family-friendly version of a motorcycle message board.

Well, C'mon, Patrick. Guys & gals riding GZ250s aren't exactly the first thing that comes to mind when you visulaize a 'bad ass biker'.

"They came roaring into town, sounding like a pack of angry sewing machines. The GZ'ers were out for blood, someone from the local car club had cut off one of their own in the Walmart parking lot, and they were going to make him pay.

They pulled up in the post office parking lot, with a stern, certified letter to be mailed to the offending cager, his life was about to become....uncomfortable"

OMG, that is PRICELESS!!

"Disney concocted love-pit", huh? Patrick_777, based on your posting history, you sure don't seem to mind it. Awww, come on ... you're a love-in kind of guy, aren't you? Admit it, the more politically correct, the better, yes? Come oooonnnnn, just admit it.

That's awesome Adrian, excellent writing, made me laugh! :2tup:

I never said I didn't like it. In fact, many times, I've said exactly the opposite. Why do you think I spend so much time here, and burn my off hours caring for the joint? Notoriety?

I actually am a "love-in" kind of guy...I have only like 7 posts over at SR.net.

I am trying to imagine that but keep giggling. Just too too funny.
