Don't know what happened but I'm over here now too. I figure 2 R sites are better than 1. Just wanted to say hey. If anyone could PM me and fill me in I'd appreciate it!!

Thanks. I musta missed alot. I got the PM. I think i might have seen the beginning of that whole deal. Troy Robl's engine build have anything to do with it? He was working on my graphics when a thread was started and he was dragged into the whole thing. Maybe thats not it, i dunno.

I've seen this kind of thing happen before on one of the diesel forums i was pretty active on. The resulting new forum was member run and much better. But like in this situation, I wasn't part of the defection as I usually don't make waves, but had made some "friends" (as much as people you've never met can be friends) on the forum that suggested I check out the new site. The new site surpassed the original quickly. Looking forward to seeing where this goes!! Glad to be here with some familiar....friends...lol.

Yes, that sums it up. Alot of these members were here long before the site was taken over by businessmen looking for a personable profit.

Thank You. Learned alot along the way. Need to get more familiar with the engine side of things now. I have no plans for a big bore out or anything but as stuff goes bad, I will replace with better or best stuff I can afford. Stuff like carb, reeds, etc..... Maybe some dressup stuff too. Just need to pull the clutch cover now and see what my neutral issue is when it's hot.

Apextrans,

Over on the other site, I think you had started a thread about OMF seat brackets. I was interested in a few. Did you hear back from the guys at OMF? I know they said they needed 50 orders to make them again.

-Thanks,

Ryan

No, I haven't heard anymore about it from OMF. However, Douglas was working on having a very similar bracket made thru a local machine shop. I'll check with him to see how thats coming along. My last conversation with OMF was that they had to have 50 and we weren't close yet.....

Like those graphics Troy helped with. Gives your Quad a real personal feeling. Looks great!!!!

THanks Tony, the graphics turned out great, really compliment the quad.
