What about if you own more than one bike?

Yeah, what about it? Cheers.

Motorcycles are the "glue" that bind us together on this site. Some have many bikes, others are aspiring to get their 2-wheeled toy.

The best comparison of KB, is to that of a pub.
People chat about all manner of things over a pint. The topic of discussion wanders about and changes/mutates to all manner of subjects.
Luckily you do not get a smack on the hand for such things at a pub, but you do get "spoken to" by the bouncer if you start a fight.

You also get those funny bastards, who make your sides hurt, from their antics.
Usually at the end of the night, you are unable to remember all the funny stuff - but can clearly remember having a whale of a time... just like going to a Billy Connelly show!

we own motorbikes, does that mean we must discuss nothing but motorbikes? Crikey, what a pack of trainspotters we'd be...

There are a few members of "another" biker site who proclaim that they are "sick of the drivel on KB", then proceed to create plenty of their own drivel. Hypocracy?

Bikes are not my whole life... See my profile pic for any further explanation.

You certainly have a choice of bikes if they are all yours!!

what a dumb poll from what i could gleam it was the motorcyclists that feel like they dont belong not whether people on the site have bikes.


i just been for a ride so i must have a bike

Get over it Merv.
Too far out of shape about nothing.
Go play in the shed.

Says the man that plays over at ADVRider a lot and at times commented about KB over there.

It was nice to see Motu back on here by the way, so we don't want to scare him off again do we. Let's keep having fun!

According to who? That is where some problems arise...

If someone accidently mentions their washing machine in a thread on brake pads does it matter or something similarly off topic? That's what I'm saying why worry about how a thread lives through its twists and turns? So I'm saying according to the mods who say "keep it on topic".

I wish...

But I'm sure I'd the right to test ride a few of them if I told the boys at Holrshot that I'm willing to upgrade...

Ideally, I'd have a garage with a R1, a 1098 Ducati and a 675 Speed Triple...and I'd keep my little VTR250 cos i just love her lots

A for the rest of your post, very well put!

Read Ixions points again......

"It was "a site for all New Zealand motorcyclists" . Now it is not"

78% say they own bikes, the ususal 8% suspects say they dont like motorcycles............so 86% own motorcycles plus those who have wish lists.

I think this site would be a million times better if they did away with the rep system.......

Oh and whatever you do don't mention trikes.

Oh and whatever you do don't mention trikes.

It is even better when you ignore the reps.............

[Taz]

Oh I ignore them but I think they are definitely counter productive. Most other bike sites don't use them and don't seem to suffer the immaturity level of KB.
Just my 0.02c

Like me you are not one for abusive language I know, however I remember you not being impressed back here http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...503#post962503 when the mods played even with your discussions that at the time I believe were harmless fun.

I think you are very much like me - enjoy your bikes, enjoy your fun, enjoy your photography, and have difficulty with the buggers that seem to want to spoil things for no reason. Why is anyone on this site not nice to everyone else? Buggered if I know, I have no ill feelings towards anyone but am just slightly surprised why the moderation is so intense and I don't think it is necessary.

[Big Dave]

mate - i'm not revisiting - but i din bitch about it on adv was my point and the only reason i'm responding is it's you.

my advise to anyone is to do what i do - if it's annoying you - log off.

the world gets by without any consequence.
