When I call this out, other members give me a beat down because "hey f*cker, its an M8 bike". OK, fine.

Its a complete mess.
you’re right. Every discussion about touring models should be in the touring models chat. Not seperated in a m8, rushmore or touring chat. Too many topics that can be of interest for all of us.

As a newish member who doesn’t know just how good you guys had it back in the old days I can tell you the split between Rushmore and touring doesn’t bother me one tiny bit. It takes a half a second to click click when I’m done looking in one section. The NEGATIVITY that often runs rampant is more likely a bigger problem than who put what where. The trolls make it so the vets are always on guard and so god forbid an actual newb with a strange question comes in, ROASTING TIME!
Lol. Having said that I ignore the crap and still find plenty of helpful folks and legit q and a’s.

OK, I'll bite. There are A-holes everywhere, but there still are plenty of decent people too. With that said, I can still filter through the b.s. and extrapolate an answer to just about any issue here.I have learned a lot since coming to this site and saved money by doing much of my own work. But yes, as others have posted, I have spent a lot of money from coming here too. I take the good with the bad and don't give any credence to the bad.

I don't care either way I'm still going to look everyday. However isn' t part of the problem. This is not a touring specific issue, it could have been posted in the forum issue section or whatever it's called lol

I have been on this site for over 10 years and always simply click "new posts". I often dont even pay attention to which forum I am in. As long as the subject interests me I click on the thread. For that reason, it really doesnt bother me how the different forums are set up.

not 100% I agree....need to think on that.

There's been times I;m reading a thread w/ high interest only to find none of it applies to my year of bike.

Maybe posters asking specific questions should be required to (somehow) list the year/model they are inquiring about in their first post.

Example: I've seen guys asking about seats for say a 2003 touring and many chiming in offer suggestions for seats that don't even fit that year of bike.

Meh, it's the OP's fault...ever since he stepped away from this forum it has gone down hill. (I was gonna say gone to hell, but this is a family forum and we're not supposed to cuss)
