Just to let some of you newer members, there is a wealth of info already on here.  Either in the mods/how to section of www.GSTWIN.com or http://pantablo500.tripod.com

There is also a search function at the top http://www.gstwins.com/forum/search.php
which I'm sure 99% of your questions will be answered and then some by the topics already discussed on here.

(I'm not saying stop posting, but questions like best tires... etc have been covered alot)   :thumb:

Howdy,

I realize that folks that have been around get tired of seeing the same topics covered. It is true that a search can often yield the information needed. This is true of every forum/mailing list I've been involved with, but the balance to that is that a site like this is about more than just getting information from a database. It is also about the personal interaction among the members, even if it involves something like the best tire. The point is that if you have seen and read a lot of these threads, don't keep reading the new ones. Or are you obsessed and have to read each and every single post made here?  :P

Tires are changing all the time, what is best yesterday is old news today. Let the newbies ask their questions and ignore them if you are tired of responding to them. I am quite confident that someone else will be glad to help them out. Searching is useful, but it is not always as precise as it could be because it lacks the real time two way interaction.

Anywho... just another point of view  :kiss:

I agree.  Like I said, "dont quit posting"  but I was merely showing that there is alot of info on here.  I dont mind looking at a post that has been covered alot.  But lets say for example  Fred took apart his gas tank and cant get it back together.  Well rather than posting a question and hoping someone answers it in time or at all he could do a quick search and get an Idea of how to do it.  And with the tire/tyre issue.  Besides just coming up here and saying, "my tires are bald I need new ones"  they could just look up what tires people have used/are using and then ask if they should use that tire.   And I like talking to people too.   :thumb:

Happy posting.

Your both wrong. I cant read, so search doesnt work. Also, i hate interaction. In fact, whenever i ride and someone looks at me, i stop..put down the kickstand and i kick them in the knee. Then i ride again.

Dammit now ive interacted with you too much. Dont reply. Ill kick. :nono:
