Celebrate! Celebrate!
« on: October 04, 2006, 05:35:46 AM »
SOHC4.US is over 3000 members strong.  it's ironic to me that this is the fastest growing website i belong to and the bikes aren't even made anymore.   :)

i'm glad to know that i have 3000 friends all over the world that actually like to hear me rant about bikes and vice versa.   :D

I know I've had at least one SOHC in my stable at some point since 1978. I still have my 76 750 I purchased in 78. Since then I've had 400, 500, 550 pass through my life and have even added a second 750 now and then, including my current side car rig based on a 78 750.

I love these bikes. they are so simple to work on. This site is a great resource as well.

yes... but, often i can get non-forum people to listen to the non-bike ones... but, once the conversation goes bikes to anyone except my family they just smile and change the subject.   :)

Just out of curiosity, if I am member #3247 (from July)  how does the head count work?

due to inactivity... many accounts have been deleted.  i believe that 6 months is the cutoff for inactivity, if it's beyond that you're account may be deleted.  but, i think it is also based on post count.  people like dusterdude and bobwessner would obviously not be deleted due to their contribution to the site.

glennstauffer would be the one to talk to for sure on this one.

I'm just a sad, lonely soul, 1000km away from home, who has the luck to have access to a computer a lot of the time. Did I mention that I am also a little opinionated?
