Bingo.

Wat?
I don't know what you are talking about.Nobody bashed your opinion.
Forgiven completely misquoted me when he played the billy bad ass racer
from the 90s card.Then went on with the this guy and that guy rant.

I said "offroad rider/racer"
As a marketing guy you recognize historical perspective being a key element in trend.
I assume that?
One example.
In 1995 it would have been hard to predict that in 10 years or so the CR 250
and the KDX 200 would be gone.

Did you catch that Coop?

For the record I don't believe I am a bad ass racer, perhaps a bad racer (meaning not good).

I apologize for allowing this thread to get so far off topic. I should have taken a different course of action and obviously it struck a nerve with me.

I will strive to do better in the future.

Not concerned about my opinion being bashed or questioned, I simply posted a reminder about respecting what others have said. I've been on forums long enough to realize arguing in this medium is pointless.

Continue to believe that the last thing this sport needs is more fluff or major manufacturers building and marketing a crap bike niche - you're fully entitled to think so.

Its important to note that I do not take the maniac video at face value.
The bike was dead before he loaded it up.

I believe it was a staged scenario.
But for me,it sends a clearer picture.

This guy is an extremely unhappy customer.
