RE: A Good First Week
So far, other than the spam infiltration earlier this week, this place has been self-policed. It really started with a very long and civil discussion over on the ADVrider site. I sat on the domain for quite a while before finally getting around to setting this place up. I envisioned a laid back type of forum. Then the ADV thread went on and on and I really just wanted to see the CB1100 based conversation started over there have a place to continue, grow and expand.

I think that much of the civility has to do with the average age of the CB1100 buyers. Smile

We may be much older, but with the CB11 we are the same age we were in the 70s Wink

That and the fact that the CB is a classy bike Wink

Thanks for getting this forum going by the way... I'm excited to see the community grow.

Oh and Ferret... good work on getting some instructional stuff up so quick. Lol, well by your logic I'm -14.

Thanks Deftquiver. It's good to see some younger owners/members signing on here. I also think that's a healthy sign for the CB1100 as well.

At the rate we're going, we might just hit 100 members within the first month (that's not counting the spammers that have joined). But to date, I'd say that we've definitely benefitted more from the quality of the members than the quantity.

This is soo true. I think the olds riders that we have brings in a maturity level that is lacking other places.
