Political threads vs Motorcycle threads

[1/32 man]

Is it just me or is there bugger all talk about motorcycles on this forum?

[pete376403]

Not just you. There does seem to be an oversupply of political posts (and I admit to some of it)

[TheDemonLord]

Well, if you primarily hang out in Off Topic and Rant or Rave - what did you expect?

The answer is yes. I mentioned the same thing last week. :laugh:

But those politics directly influence the success of great motorcycles like Harley Davidson, Daelim, Ural, Triumph etc.... so it’s bikecrelated lol

I make my observation after visiting the site and clicking on new posts......I guess you assumed wrong Mr Demon.

Ah, fair enough - I've never used the new posts function, I always browse direct to the Threads that interest me.

So fair comment, I could see how that would skew perception.

and so this morning....four out of eleven new posts are about motorcycles.....and there are no new threads/topics started by anyone.

I am a moaning sod at times.

There used to be a lot of noobs asking questions and a lot of people offering advice. Few noobs these days so less discussion of matters motorcycling. The Moto GP season kicks off this weekend so that should create some motor cycle related discussion.

There's an idiot filter where you don't see posts by fuckwits. That helps.

Everyone has moved to whatever replaced farcebook.
I'll miss forums.

We're getting old and probably missed the memo that forums are so yesterday. I miss the tour reports and owners new bike reviews. We're getting old and probably missed ..oh sorry, I said that already.

I am thinking of trading my KTM for a 2022 Busa. That has got quite political because the wife thinks I am a complete twat.

I will post updates in this thread to keep you happy.

I will post updates in this thread to keep you happy.I'm tempted too. They are almost a bargain compared to the inflated prices of many new bikes.

To be fair though, Most wives think their husbands have a baseline degree of Twattery, therefore get the Busa.

And remember - it's easier to ask for Forgiveness than Permission.

Same spondoolers as the GSXR1000 though which is why I might need to hold a household referendum to determine the most appropriate commuter in the current political climate.

What would Michael Baker say?

I used to commute daily on a 'Busa. Stick some bar risers on there and it's a fantastic Sport Tourer.

Shit tell her KTM are Russian and it's a protest , pretty sure for a while Austria was part of Russia, so it's not completely untrue, it's like those shoes she's "had for ages....

Genius!

I want to get another bike, too. Probably won't discuss it until it gets home. Ultimately nothing will change but I will have another bike to play on.

[HenryDorsetCase]

I did get those Ducatis which i like a lot
