I'm one of the new guys that recently purchased an Acura. (2001 CL-S). I've registered here and as well at all-acura.com, and at honda-acura.net.


My observation is that these aren't the most active forums on the web, are they? I state that simply because I am also an avid motorcyclist. I have a newer bike that is my "daily rider", and I'm also restoring (not rebuilding) a 1974 Kawasaki Z1 (KZ900/1000). Either one of the three biking forums I belong to are 100x more active than the honda or acura forums I'm currently registered with.


Is there anyone that would like to shed some light as to why?


Seriously, I'm not trying to be a smarta$$. I'm just curious as to why the car forums seem to lack member participation.


Jim

Hi Patrick.


It just does seem odd. Hopefully this place will stay up.There's a lot of reading to do.[img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]


My daily rider is a 2001 Kawasaki ZR-7S, the faster red model. I wanted to post a pic but I see there isn't a way to do it.


Wait! I just remembered photobucket!

Patrick what kind of bike forums are you running? I've been riding for 35 years. My Brother and I raced on the West Coast ShortTrack&Moto for 13 years when we were kids,I've had my Harley for 26 years(27 this Sept.) a true 1 owner and the only street bike I will ever own, this sled has never been to a shop for anything I do all of my own work on all of my vehicles.I also have my Bro's (deceased) first year watercooled YZ250 that is still a rocket.And his all original 1 owner 1979 XS650 that he bought in H.S. and it also still runs and looks good. We have bikes in our blood.Back to my original Question what kind of bike forums are u running?? Thanks for letting me ramble it brought back some great memories of my Bro and I in the day.
