I totally agree. I am on several forums with snowmobiles, another motorcycle forum (Star Bike Forums) with a few know-it-alls who dominate every thread, and often name calling is breaking out before the first page is filled with posts. Though Doo Talk (Ski Doo snowmobiles) is pretty good as well, probably a close second to this forum. I am in the middle of a discussion now on the decline of snowmobiling, very interesting. There are a lot of parallels between snowmobiling and motorcycling.

Anyway, I always enjoy the conversation and never respond with the thinking that I am going to change someone's mind. Just talking.

Things on my bike that probably would not be there without guidance from this forum:

Ragestad, Baker Wings, fog lights, and the biggest - doing all the maintenance myself!!!

For the record, I use:
Mobil 1 Racing T 10W 40 oil
Honda oil filters
87 octane gas
8,000-10,000 mile oil change intervals
Exedra tires
Pro Honda "Pledge" spray
Corbin seat
