Well said - please do not leave - I also do not understand the rational for political jingoism on a forum page about supporting folks with a common interest in a particular brand and model of bike.
Give me carbs, tires, batteries, white spacers, riding stories yarms or just general socializing any day - but for our friends from the United States - please find suitable political forums for discussion of issues and matters which do not impact outside of the 50 states.
This is a serious request, made respectfully and with great caution. As a frequent poster and constant reader, I do not want to loose forum participants like Bob -CH nor do I want to loose our American friends and their content in these posting.
Could someone from the United States please explain to me why the motivation is to undermine the purposes of this forum and web site?
I too must admit that it is extremely difficult to want to read messages which with all of the best intents amount to not much more than a rant about political issues which are only of importance in one country.
Flame away folks - to me personally (tbert@nunanet.com) or following this posting.
