Why are so many threads being moved to the BS forum? I never read the BS forum and it seems many of the moved threads are appropriate to this "General HD Chat" forum. I have been reading about helmets, leather jackets, etc. forever on this forum and now no more. What changed?

I'll see how long before this gets moved to another forum. Actually a Moderator explanation would be nice.

Whats the use of specific forums if you aren't gonna use them. I am getting kinda tired of all the helmet, oil, and jacket threads on Harley Chat myself.

TX - Actually some I've moved using the description above the forum as a guide. I'm sure one of the other mods will slap my hand when the house cleaning gets out of hand. If or when that happens, I promise to put them all back with directions on how to get there.

Jeez - I should know better than to tidy up a man's garage...

Not really determined just following the rules like the rest of you

A little patience while I get my feet wet will definitely be appreciated...

Most I see are topics defined in the BS section. "Almost Killled" unless you think his story is BS seems to fit general chat.
