Give yourselves a hand
« on: March 10, 2006, 03:43:58 AM »
Honestly, I started this place 4+ years ago when I got my first KX500. With a background in making CR500's go way fast I had no idea what to do with this thing and there was nothing out there information wise so i started a little group on the Internet. The level of knowledge that the people brought to this place is astounding. I mean d**n, you've got Rick and Maney - two top racers with amazing riding knowledge, Doordie with amazing engine tuning tips and "secrets", and the rest of you guys with little tips and tricks that made owning this bike so much easier.

Hell we even have a pro level Kawi rider that pops in from time to time, Mr. Destry Abbot :)

I know I haven't named everyone and thanked you for everything you bring - thats alot by the way ;) - but I hope you realize this place is here because of and for you guys.

(P.S. Thanks for NOT being like the rest of the places on the Internet with all their bickering and in-fighting.)

You're right you know, this is my most often visited and favourite sites. The stuff that you can learn about bikes here is fantastic. Learning is a great thing, especaially when it is applied to something that you can truly enjoy learning about and put it to good use.
 
 There are some sites out there that are just not worth wasting time or effort on. The people that use them are just a bunch of cockheads who think they know everything. And only have enough ability to slag each other off and ignore any one with anything half decent to say.

 Good on you guys who make this site what it is. Lets keep it cockhead free and keep the good info flowing. :wink:

Paul, have you heard from Manny or Rick?? He used to be here often, I was hoping he would come back after the season started. He was even talking about moving here to NC.. Just curious.

I too visit this site almost every day. I have gotten so much tuning info from here that I probably have the best running bike right now that I have ever had in my life of riding. Just sunday I started the K5 and it had been sitting for 3 months second kick it's puring like a lion.

On another note, Paul, give yourself a pat on the back also. You've stuck with this for 4 years and brought us all together.

Thanks!!!
