A different flavor....

Sly...I've noticed it too. "Expert" opinions are being given without explanation; it's more of a "just because I said so" type of thing. However, that happens on most internet forums. What bothers me lately is the complete lack of respect for the rules and conventions of the English language. While I am by no means perfect, it's hard to take someone seriously who can't capitalize or punctuate even the simplest sentence. There are members who write like a 14 year-old text messaging his first girl friend.
Other than that, it's still my favorite site! :mrgreen:

I enjoy reading all the "Expert" opinions, I just take them with a grain of salt. As far as proper English I type everything in an e-mail window, do spell check, proof read, then copy and paste it into the forum. If a person really wants to look like they speak the Kings English, type your post into a Microsoft Word document. Word will correct grammar.
I value all the members we have on this site, even the people that don't seam to get it right all the time. They might be like I was back in late 2004 when I joined this site, full of questions and ideas, not all of them correct. I ride a KX 500 that's as safe as it can be and I'm a much better rider because of this site and the people on it. So please don't give up on the new members that have the same questions we have gone over and opinions that aren't quite up to par, because I was one of those "new members".
Had the previous members given up on me I would not have mechanical knowledge and rider ability I have today. And yes this is still my favorite site!
Here's 14 reasons I don't post as much as I used to. Forums I'm a member of.

d**n Danger!!! I thought I belonged to a lot of foums..When do you have time to ride? :-D
Danger4u2:
If everything is running well at work and I don't have a customer here or on the phone I have permission to surf the net all I want. I'm most active here on KXRiders then okdualsport, klrworld, klr650.net, advrider and the rest I'm more of a lurker. Now that I have the new quad I'll become more active on this one http://kfx450hq.com/invision/index.php?act=idx
I am still a dyed in the wool KX500 and KXRiders.com guy and always will be.
As far as time to ride, I used to ride on my lunch hour behind the shop on the track I made. We have had so much rain I can't get to my track that's right outside of my back door. The first picture is a TV shot of the storm that just passed over us and dropped an inch of rain. The next picture is the trail to the low water crossing to get to the track. Notice the grass on the trail, this is the first time I have ever had to mow the trail since I made the track back in 2002. The water is 3 feet deep over the bridge. The creek is dry most of the time and we ride in it, but not this year.
openclass:
Frair-Tuck, All of those read but not posting could be alot of mine. It's been 10 years sence I raced my K5. So I don't have a lot of information that I can relate from that long back, but I do alot of reading on this sight (It's my second most read site). Sence I'm not riding my k5 (In the middle of rebuild when a Guy didn't return My frame). I"m still real interested in then alumminum frame comversion for my old 500.
And YES English is not my strong point.
