Second on that.

Ok...I'll try and live up to my trollness....

Up here, in the Northern Lower peninsula, everything below Grayling is considered Detroit.

If you have to ask then you must be one. Have fun riding three miles to bike night. Don't sprain yourself polishing your chrome.

What i posted could also be considered Trolling.
That would be considered a post *****. A troll is just looking for a reaction from others.

It's all about the lulz.

Trolls just like to see people get worked up for no reason.

An example of a troll-ish question:

When am I old enough to qualify for a bagger?

-or-

I am thinking of getting my first Harley, but I don't want a pansy girlie bike or a fat man's bike. What should I get?

-or-

Why do all Harley riders look like a retired bouncer from the "Blue Oyster"?

get it?

Several good definitions of trolls but I think the term troll is over used. There are trolls who show up here but some are accused of being trolls when they may not be trolls ---just new at this. I have seen post of nearly the same question posted in several forms by new members who don't realize that the question has been posted over and over and they were accused of being trolls. I read this forum for different points of views and I have gotten tech information I could not find in any of my manuals. It would be boring here if it was a big hug fest. I am glad this forum is here and most members are respectful of each other.
