for one, i think that ever since mfbarnes dropped his "this is my hot wife, i get on my knees and thank god for her every day...OH **** THIS ISN'T MY WIFE IT'S SOME PAY-PER-VIEW HO I WATCH ON THE INTERWEB" thread, this forum will never again be without entertainment.

and i use astroglide in all 3 holes, because my bike is a dirty, dirty girl.

Now that was entertainment and a very good piece of investigative work!

Well said! There's lots of old threads from people whining about others not using the search function. They obviously forgot this is a discussion forum.

Search button?
What search button?

Don't need know stinkin search button!

Also problem with going with old posts:

Old information only

If there is new updated part, procedures or specifications since old posts you will not get the newest best information.

Chance are that on the days the HDF member that could give the best answer never saw those old posts and never added his knowledge.

Chances are there is a new HDF member that has just joined and can add new info never posted before.

Chances are better to start a new post where live feed back is provided. Many times a question asked in response to the OP's original question will help zero in on finding the solution.

Also this forum provides a info box as you scroll so you an see if you want to click on and read or skip past.

It seems that feature is even harder to use for many here. Speacially those complaining about OP's not using the search feature.

seriously though i dont know why people feel the need to say use the search button and that is there ownly answer to the question.i HAVE used the search button on things ownly to find the answer of "use the search button".--when people say that its cool if they dont know the answer and tryin to be helpful but 99% of the time IMO they want to pretend they have the answer and just want to be a dik.i think these types are best butties with the spelling *****.

Don't see the harm in asking a question even if it's been asked many times before. Everyone has the option of not clicking on a thread.

I think it's funny how some people are sick and tired of oil threads and yet they can't stay away from them.

Ain't that the truth!

As for the search function, I've used it a few times and actually got some good information out of it, but I've also used it a bunch of other times and didn't get squat beyond 3,289,654 responses (displayed 10/page), and none of which came close to answering my question.

Besides, as someone else rightly pointed out, if everyone used the search function and never asked a question, this place would get "very" quiet and boring, real fast!

Ride Safe,
Steve R.
