I would brand him a nut sack, if not exclusively for the posting of a screensaver sized picture on a 'bound to be' inflammatory and lively thread.
Just my tuppence worth.
I don't have any problems with someone choosing a Triumph or a Kawasaki (or any other brand for that matter) over a Honda. If someone would rather have a Bonneville or a W800, then more power to them. But honestly, just go buy the damn thing, ride it and be happy.
We try to play nice here, and I'm probably not setting a great example in this thread. Chris is obviously a sharp guy. But I do think that he likes to push buttons, and not just the kind that are found on the controls of a motorcycle.

Do we really need to call one another nut sacks because we don't like some of their practices? One of the things I like about this forum is that people generally generally don't see the need to resort to insult while indulging in robust debate.
Chris is undeniably a stirrer, but he's also interesting and adds a bit of value about the joint. He's also shown himself willing to take it. Let's help him with his ruminations not crap on him because he hasn't decided to take the pledge and buy a CB1100. If he makes a different decision and is happy with it, more strength to him.
Sorry for venting. I've been on another forum this morning where the behaviour is awful and people are proud of it.
