I know times are bad for some but a true motorcyclist (not biker) is always involved with machines no matter what the conditions are. Get off your duffs and get involved. You have eternity to rest. Let us hear your stories/problems/issues/successes.

I usually fix my odd problems myself. I don't post anywhere unless it's a weird problem to me. However, it's nice to find someone that's had the same issue I'm dealing with that I've not seen before. Posting and responding to issues is how we all learn.

If this forum is dying, I'd like to know of another forum that's more active. Input?

Live to ride and wear 'em out, ride to fix to ride 'em more.

This might not be considered a tech problem but I am always looking for places to ride and thus I am asking everyone in the motorcycle community to post their favorite routes and places to ride on my online map, if you have the time and want to help me out feel free to post at <a href=”http://www.allstategarage.com/routes/”>Allstate Insurance Motorcycle Routes </a> or -<a href="http://allstategarage.com/">

It ain't dead but it sure has changed. I'm a proffessional mechanic and am disappointed at the number of riders I encounter that have no understanding of their machine. I learned the hard, expensive, dangerous way. These forums offer the easy opportunity for riders to connect globally to share and learn. Unfortunately, some just want a free fix and go on their way. I,m in Ohio USA and we have a long "off season" which, until reliable electrics and durable, low maintainence bikes, was used to go through the whole thing, grips to ground. I love motorcycles and keep in it 24/7/365. Pat Ottobre.
