Ah to have passion about something again...

What is it when you get older that you stop being passionate about things. Kinda neat to recapture some of those feelings from time to time. |

Steve,
Thank you for the kind post on orange talk. Is it a requirement for that forum that for every one polite member there has to be 9 a$$holes? You didn't slam KTM in any way. You just politely pointed out that members there should maybe consider a Gas Gas and the first response was rude. I don't get it. Clay |

Well some KTM guys aren't really confident in there brand. Other wise they wouldn't care.

Considering it was his first post though it does sound like a bit of a sales pitch/recruiting mission. It is also KTM talk. They're all on the orange koolaid. Any other generic motorcycling forum and I bet you'd get much more positive feedback. Just my 2c worth.

I have a little different opinion on this. I am on here and KTMTALK. One of my biggest complaints about this forum is the continuous KTM bashing. I have both and they are both great. I have seen a negative comment about Gassers over there sometimes but it is much less than I see here.
Just my 2cents. |

I think you will find that I have said on more than one occassion that the orange bike is a really good motorcycle. Obviously I think ours is better but the KTM is definitely good. I was mainly talking about the tone of the comment that the poster made to Steve. I thought Steve's comment was respectful but the reply was flat out rude. I don't think I have see anyone make a rude comment to anyone else on this site. Maybe I'm prejudiced.... Clay |

I for one like bikes in general. I had one KTM 200 and 2 gassers, followed by my 450 Berg that I just got rid of. All of them had their good points & bad points. The gasser just suits my riding style better. This is why I am getting a 2013 gasser when they get here. Hands down though both gassers had better suspension. I spent a ton of coin on the berg suspension and still was not happy. In the end I don't give a shit what anybody rides just as long as you are riding. Happy Trails, Robby

No problem. I agree with Clay that I do not often see it get personal on this site. It just seems like every day I get on here I see slams against the orange bikes. It just seems kind of petty but not a big deal.
I actually bought a rm 250 project to fix up. I like em all! |
