    do not understand the statement at the start of the thread. we all are welcome to show our rides and enjoy the opinions of others with constructive help. was the statement meant to ask for help in improving the bike in our opinions , or as JB took it a cry for a pat on the back?

    Just trying to have a little fun here, boys. When you reach a hundred "likes", our forum will PM you that you've been awarded a "trophy". I'm not really looking for a trophy or a pat on the back . . . I was only trying to be facetious . . .

    You put it in the correct location and first off introduce yourself first. Putting your first post up to sell something is a surfire way of getting banned.

    Hahaha I didn't even know that existed and I'm running this thing! Must be built into the forum software after we upgraded and I didn't notice it.

    I can send you an old trophy I have but it will be of a guy bowling and he's missing an arm :p

    That's ok, Ken - please keep the trophy ha-ha. I wonder what we'll be awarded when we reach the next level of "likes" recieved :rolleyes:? Kinda silly, don't you think?

    We tend to watch people closely that join simply to post things for sale then disappear, there are web sites for that, ebay, craigslist etc.

    I go on Bike Talk just now and there is an alert for this thread. Clicked on it and found an ad for "Build Your Own Trophy - start now". Is that not weird? LOL.

    It's like the "awards" ceremony at our school. Just about all the kids get awards for just about everything, even for showing up for class. I have never given an award in the 12 years I've taught there.

    They'll get over it. I had thought about giving a "wingnut" award, but somehow I don't think that would fly with the school board.

    If your school board is anything like the ones up here, they should all get the "Wingnut" awards!
