The SOHC Forums - you can find everything you need right here!
« on: November 15, 2007, 12:21:42 PM »
I realised today that almost everything can be found on the SOHC forums including the obvious of how to fix/customise/make-it-run-faster/restore your SOHC bike.

Here are a few recent example Ive noticed:

1. Learn some Japanese and Hindu mythology over in the Tattoo thread.
2. Bevy of beauties over in the Bobby R thread.
3. Weird Australian delicacies being eaten in Spain thread - thanks Raul
4. How to build your own boat thread.
5. RC trucks crawling over rocks thread - check out Yamaha XS1100 thread - thanks Scott
6. What to do when your bored of skydiving - human wings thread...very interesting.
7. How to get let off in court for having loud pipes in Minnesota thread.
8. How to sandcast your own parts using molten aluminium in your own backyard - thanks Johnny in Belgium
9. Mlinder and Terry in Australia are secret lovers  ;) ;D (just joking!!)

Thanks to Glenn for making all this happen!

Anyone else notice this and what have you learnt apart from about SOHC bikes?

cheers
Andy

I totally agree with you Andy. This is a diverse bunch in here. I'm not working on my bikes at the moment, but I check back here on a daily basis.

What have I learned ------

That being a member of the forum turns certain members into biker chick/babe magnets... hmmmmm Andy?

That it is unwise to open discussion to that of the ownership of firearms.

That being a burglar in certain parts of the world, and getting caught, may be fatal.

That it is possible to show flashes of genius (the ownership of these fine motorcycles) and stupidity (not wearing appropriate gear or a helmet) at the same time.

3)  A little about vintage audio.

4)  Don't eat lamb from Australia.

ANY thread can be turned into an oil thread!  Just watch. 

Oil is slippery, I guarantee it.

I have learned that riding a Honda SOHC can turn an ugly scot into a beautiful macho lover to the eyes of a japanese biker chick......  ;D


Are there any other japanese biker chicks around? I want to show them my Hondas.....


A forum can only be as good as their contributors are, and this forum is crowded with very interesting people with many interesting stories and experiences to share.

It has evolved into a Community.

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?
