New Moderators

I don't see why not.



Hi Budo!!

Why not?

Of course, the question is... who? I really don't know who is who on the site anymore.

I think rather than picking people we know, like we have done before. Someone should post up a thread and ask for people to apply for the position. Some of the other, more disciplined forums I've frequented used that system.

Ask them to submit a short paragraph on why they (or a person they nominate) should be a moderator and cross check their posts. Of course if someone comes up with shitty postings like trolling or just being a dick, you can always not pick them.

Just based on helpful knowledge and length of stay on this forum I think Macbandit would be a good mod. But I honestly can't think of anybody else.

and...
Hey JOHN!!

Haha, suuuup. +1 for MacBandit, and +1 for an open thread if needed.

Yeah , sorry folks I have not been around lately. Except now I have some stuff to sell.

I don't know anyone here but you guys and gals...

The 675 is getting shipped to Florida on Monday to a new home and I will most likely not come here at all after that...

Replacing the 675 with a Husqvarna TE 310 and will be spending my time in the woods, not on the racetrack...

So, I don't really have a dog in this fight...

Replacing your bike with a chainsaw?! That's just sad. We don't have a lumberjack smiley, so I guess the Canadian one is the next closest thing: :canadian:

(and yes, i know that isn't really a chainsaw.

Lawnmower?

The owners of this site don't apparently have any concern in the matter...

Congrats on your Speedie. I got eye surgery a few months ago, made riding a whole lot more comfortable and safer. Who'd have thought 2 eyes looking in the same direction could help so much!?!
Anyways, since then I've grown even fonder of my Speedie, I enjoy a spin on Kat's 675 now and then but riding the torque wave of the big 1050 is so much fun.
My 675 goes on consignment probably this Saturday. Anyone want a Jardine pipe? Or a 675?
Congrats to you also Jeff on a sweet new ride.

She will be at Eurosports yes. The 675 has not moved under it's own power in almost 3 years. As much as my heart says keep it, my head says sell it.
Not like I don't have another great bike sitting waiting for me. :cool2:

All this talk about selling bikes is making me consider the unthinkable... My r/r quit on me again a month ago but I haven't had the chance to fix it due to work. After it's fixed I'm considering selling her and picking up a DRZ to get back into some dirty riding. I also need to start training for a TAT run in the future...

Chip, where are we on that?

We're a couple years away. :laugh:
I'd love to do it some day, just have a slightly different path to take these days......actually need to get shit done in the house. I even picked up a paint brush a few weeks ago, my body is still recovering from the shock of the situation. :rofl:

No worries dude... I don't think I'll be good to go next year anyway .

Just don't wait til you're too old... LOL

That sucks.. both of you. :laugh: Whats the price on your 675 Chip?
