Somthing VERY cool about this forms members

[agraebner]

This is something I have been thinking about since I had to find a place to mount and balance the tires on my Nighthawk. The people on this site appreciate the broad spectrum of both RIDERS and RIDES. The different places I have ridden or motorcycle shops I have been to ( basically anything that has put me in contact with other riders) there is a lot of bias towards their own type. For example Suzuki dealership I had the tires mounted at was all about a busa, nothing else was a REAL bike and the rest of us were not REAL riders. I have encountered a lot of this type of attitude even out riding. It is a real pleasure to see this forum with its open minded people. In my time here I have seen people recommend bikes for people that suited there purpose rather than a bias. I have really come to appreciate the need for every type of bike, because somewhere there is a person that fits it perfectly. I am glad for the diversity brought to this site. The rest of the world would do well by the same reasoning.... This site is BRAIN FOOD!!!

I couldn't have said it better myself and it's one of the reasons I started Total Motorcycle in the first place over a decade ago. I wanted to create a site that was friendly, helpful, useful and unbaised so that no matter how you ride, where your ride or what you ride you would be welcomed.

Ya, I know, it sounds too ideal for today's world, but hey, WE ALL did it!



110 million helped and going...

Hey, someone has to believe that Busa riders are real riders

I totally agree with the above sentiment.

Other sites that I have visited have more than their fair share of bias + sexism + racism. A little verbal knockabout can be fun, but there is a good sense of neighbourliness & support expressed here too.

I think the Canadian influence is probably very significant.

Well done everyone! Thank you for making me welcome

(BTW I'll always be a bit biased toward Brit bikes )

Just read this post again and I can't tell you how BIG of a smile it bought to my face tonight.

You guys and gals are just the best of the best and make the Total Motorcycle Community a real pleasure to come to everyday.
