Best news I had in last 3 years !

Ok it's winter. Most guys aren't riding and have nothing else to do. If the moderators (me and Cormanus) were doing our jobs as directed by the administrator, this thread would have been deleted after the first post,(something I considered) because it has nothing to do with the CB 1100 or motorcycles in general ( something Cormanus hinted at early on) but like I said it's winter, and I/we let it ride. The whole first page and the beginning of the second page were nothing but congrats, and cool band, and it will be worth it and it will be a great time, then eventually as threads tend to do, particularly this time of the year, it started to to drift. and the drift was even participated in by the original thread starter.

If y'all think this is a crotchety thread, you really should visit some other forums and read some of the threads that go on, this time of the year in particular, when guys can't get out to ride.

Maybe we should just have threads about the CB1100 and motorcycles in general which was the original purpose for the forum. Whatcha think?

Ah, keep it. CB folks are definitely not crotchety. This one came closest, but still so far away from what others you have indicated. CB folks appear kinda squishy, so this appears so in jest. It is funny because it is sooooooo not CB folks.

And we have a soother: PB. I nominate peterbaron as "Forum Soother". (just kinding of course, but wait ... )
RE Winter: Yeah, Ferret, no doubt that brings the fur out on the backs of riders, the finger nails get long and yellow, ... oh yeah. Bad.

I think that there is nothing wrong with some threads/post having nothing to do with motorcycles.
I have read threads /post about fishing, hunting, boats , planes , cars, guitars , birds etc.
By STRICTLY only having post about motorcycles the Forum could slowly die and that would be a shame especially for new owners of the CB 1100h

I think we are doing OK...tight censorship/restrictions would thwart this forum, which is our CB social media closed circuit, also too much worry will kill us all...I had very tough German boss named Hans, who always said: if cuss hits the fan, it's gonna be spread all over the place.....
Many threads drift off, as we have so many different members of so many different views, needs and opinions...which in turns give us a wake up call in some cases..
The above member said once " humor is best medicine", and this is so true. Friendly jabs do a lot of healing in bad comments or situations
The only complaint I have is the need of few more emojis, and for sure this one:, so Guth, click your mouse and grant me X-mas wish, please

all

P.S."Ok it's winter"... I am looking for set of motorcycle winter wiper blades and floor mats, any help ??
