Default I will leaving HD Forums.

Just putting this up to let anyone who may care that this will be my last post here.

All i ever tried to do was give good advice to those who needed or asked for it. But because i put my shop address in my signature,some vendor on here complained about me advertising. Ive never tried to sell or push parts on anyone here,i fully belive in supporting local buisiness,preferbly independent shops such as myself. I do not agree with the greed that is now involved with HD motorcycles. It is the main factor in the brotherhood of bikers being lost,and it also the problems we see with HD's Quality control now.
I have met some very good folks on here and i will leave my page active for a while,because ironically i have all my info there without issue,so if youd like to contact me youll be able to.Please feel free to email me or call for any advice you may need or want.As i feel we all have more to gain from helping one another than not.All that being said its been fun,and we will see on the open road.

Ride on brother. I can't figure it out. This is another example of big business taking down the work'n man. When brothers and sisters talk about what they do to keep their EVO's alive, I can trust those products. PM me any recomendations on who not to buy from.
Thanks for all your input also, your a good resource. Come back with a new account, we won't tell nobody.

They can change your user name for you, if you have a good reason.

I don't understand the big deal, just change the signature. There are many members that also have a business and although they don't use their posts for advertising, most of us know who they are. Likewise, I never heard of anyone complaining if someone mentions they work on bikes in a post, but I guess if someone did it every post they would be warned about it..

Politics that's what it's about. From a professional standpoint,sponsors pay a healthy sum to advertise here,and why would they pay if they can just put the info in their sig? But I don't get it,are you being told to leave Leg.? I know it sounds aweful picky, and must really PlsS you off, but just remove your info and stay,people like you are the guys we less knowlegeable guys count on to learn stuff. just my couple of cents worth.

Paul Revere didn't let the man get to him neither did William Dawes the other unsung hero as you should be. This forum releys on people like you not the sponsors, F them.

Legacy, Please reconsider leaving all together, you have shared knowledge and taught all of us, forums need more people like you. I dont gain much first hand knowledge from any sponsors here, all they are doing, is pushing their dope, dope dealers ! they are not here to make friends and share the love of hd, they are here for MONEY !. so if thats what it takes to keep good people here, i am willing to pay a portion of your advertisement fee. id rather hear what you have to say, then hey the same "sponsors" chime with with the same reworded bullshit. chad.

When you come back, could you change your avatar to something not so cute?
