What you liked best about KB when you joined

[Black]

I'm a rank noob here and still haven't met any fellow KBrs yet (me bikey not worky righty ... and work and exams ...)

I joined when I started looking for a bike and came across the Online trading section ... I've stuck around because I like the witty banter and conversations that go on here (I just ignore the flame wars).

I also like learning new things and I've found this site fantastic for learning new things re biking (The other day I learnt about the bikes power band)

I stumbled across KB while doing the normal Search Engine thing on 'Tits and Beer'! pt
ps. you boys an't had a beer thread highjack for a while! Well done.

I found the site after googling for bike info. Joined up, but didnt post or do much until I attended last years Welly Xmas BBQ - went along knowing nobody, came away with a new bunch of friends and riding mates - been here ever since. Its the people.

Instant friends just add motorcycle?
I liked that as soon as I posted 'hey its me', I got invited to a ride and green rep (yummy). It also gave me the confidence to walk up to a motorcyclist almost anywhere and start a conversation. v-cool.

Yeah I remember that... that pic of us was really funny!

Got to agree.... amazing people in Auckland, Welli and Chch on KB.

The fact that it is the largest group of bikers I have ever been involved with since getting my wheels in the first place. Love that at any given point there will be a ride happening that I can just show up at. And if there isn't a ride, I can just start one and others will show up.

Because there are no gun threads here.

I DID try, honest, I tried!

Like also the fact that it's not JUST motorbikes discussed on this site.

and sex, and cops - in no particular order... or action or such practise deemed not godly... and such. zed????!?!?

I've found the humorous banter totally addictive and logon whenever Im home. Although I'm still a noob I'm no longer a KB ride Virgin! Today was my first Coro Loop. Thanks Tristank for organising a wicked ride, and sorry you couldnt make it HDTboy. I hope to do loads more rides and with time make some lasting friendships.
About 20 years ago I tried to join a club and was rejected for only having 400CC's Now here is a cool bunch of people who dont judge you for what you ride and I kinda like that. I also like the silly smilies not to mention the meetings and events
Thanks Spankme and everyone on here for a wicked site.

I only joined up for John.

Well to be serious he told me to check the forums out.. and I haven't looked back since. I never was a forum person back in my geeky days but KBR got me hooked bad eh!

Everyone on here is nice in real life.

except WINJA

[Ixion]

The insanity. And the nutters. And the thoughtfull and insightful philosophical debate. And the bikes

EDIT: Not a PT. I like the wide variety of people and the way that a bantering thread about beer or sex is balanced by a serious social or technical discussion on the next thread - and the wide variety of expertise on the site. Homo sum: humani nil a me alienum puto (No, Mr John , it doesn't mean what you think it does)

[James Deuce]

I can't be human then, because all humans are strange to me.

Except Motorcyclists.

I was just after riding buddies after an extended lay off from bikes. I got a lot more than I bargained for.

It's all Mangell6's fault too, so if you have any issues with me, take it up with him.
