Default RE: I think the Dyna forum is....

I first came to this forum 2 years ago (ignore my avatar date) and at that time the Street Bob was a new model attracting lots of new, young guys buying their first Harley. A lot of us were familiar with cars, trucks, and mechanical items in general but were new to bikes and certainly new to cruisers. I think a lot of us were so eager to modify and change the bikes that we built a little network helping each other out. As for the older guys in the forum, they may be older but they're dyna riders and to me it seems that is a group of riders used to doing things for themselves with a no nonsense attitude. The attitude that the dyna appeals to.... simple, bare bones.

I try to help out as much as I can because I'm always eager to see photos of what someone has done to their ride.

Since we throwing out opinions.

It seems to me in each respective category. Sportster,Dyna,Softail,Touring ect....
They are very helpful to each other and others. You go out to the General, Off Topic, Political, anything goes.

I usually stay in the touring section unless I'm slumming.






Ahhh.....just kidding. Ride Safe.

I really think that is why! granted... i wear a monkey suit to work every day... but i truely feel that is why we seem to get along so well, we all not only love the bike but we all love turning the wrench on it, i love the mix of ages, experiance, and locations that we have on here...
in fact!
this summer i am going to plan a week ride and try and hit up some neighboring states... then i can hit up forum members for a free place to sleep! ha ha ha now that is capitalizing!

We're just more of a laid back bunch. There arecertian kind of bikes that have their shocks "stuck up" and hidden underneath and most(not all) of their riders are stuck up as well. Dyna riders however, we rock out with our shocks out and have more of a care free, friendly attitude. I dont mind answering PM's, exchanging emails, and have even taken phone calls from people trying to get things figured out. Dont get me wrong, Im not trying to stir things up with those comments. I mean Im not saying..im just saying.

I have not been here long but have come to love it here. My wife always laughs and smiles when I start a sentence out "on the forum..." she says I talk about "them" liek thier family. I told herwell they are!! Anyway I asked all the same questions that I now see beign repeated and so I know that those that have been here longhave heard it 100times. But I have always got answers with only a few wise guys. I try to answer what I can but it mostly just to the questions that I have asked already.
