Default 2 forums

maybe im crazy, (well, probably a given) but it seems like there's 2 of these motorized bike forums that are nearly identical, and they have nearly the same members using them. ?? i never know which one im at..

I've found this one to be the friendlier of the 2.

No way!

We just need to have at least two flavors for a hobby/sport/obsession that is so cool.

Different strokes for different folks. But I haven't been to the other. But this forum has been plenty of help.

I go to both sites but I post a majority of my stuff here. I think the other site has gotten alot better since they got rid of a certain Moderator. When I first got into MBs I started on the other forum. I TRIED to play by their rules, was polite to everyone then one day I got banned with no explaination so I've moved on.
Over here, everyone keeps it real and is pretty cool.
Motorbicycling.com is home.

I wouldn't waste my time over there really. They are uptight about damn near everything, and frankly I think they would be more than happy if the people building the happy time bikes would just leave. It's EPA this and EPA legal that... Stick here. Only good thing about the other site is checking out the pics of the bike builds...

I feel this forum is alot friendlier, more relaxed, especially if you have a HT engine. I have been using both sites until recently when I posted a question to the "God" of the forum, and was ridiculed by a handul of his "followers".......

You aught to check out the rod scene.......ratrods and olskoolrodz, they are both full of crazies and like to spit at each other, all in the name of your taste and style in rod building. I am sure there are more forums on this subject elsewhere, we just have the two most popular for now. 8-)
