tufftom4 Posted October 21, 2008 #28 Posted October 21, 2008 Since I have joined here I have been searching to try to figure out how to post a message I can post a reply but can't figure out how to post a new message and I am sure a lot of other new users are the same way,This is not an easy site to navigate for new users.
mini-muffin Posted October 21, 2008 #29 Posted October 21, 2008 If you're looking to start a new thread there's a button on the top of the page that says new thread. Hit that and type away. If you need anything else just ask, one of us will be able to help you out. Margaret
ctraylor Posted October 21, 2008 #30 Posted October 21, 2008 OK OK I admitt it I am a Lurker, what ever that is, I am also a Venture Rideraholic. I admit I can't stop reading these post. One of the reasons I don't leave a message is that everything I have wanted to know has already been posted. I just do a search and wala there it is. I am lookin forward for the Ralley next August in Harrison. That is only about 40 miles from where I live and I can drive back and forth everyday. It is more important to be a good listener than a good talker. A big hug out to everyone....

If you are on the Home Page Click Forum at top menu bar,go to whichever pertains to subject you are asking about IE 2nd Gen etc,then click Thread Starter and get after it. Tom

I have to do like "Tom" says and go to the "Forum" page. Is there a quicker way? You can do it from whatever forum page you go to. Like at the top of the page when you come into wateringhole it's at the top on the left. Below which you see all the threads that have been posted. There's only this way that I know of. You have to be in the section you want to make the new thread in. Margaret

86er Posted October 22, 2008 #42 Posted October 22, 2008 How does the old saying go? "You can lead a horse to water, but ya can't make him drink" ... and then there are some (like moi) who just drink and drink and drink ... Cheers, I thought that old saying was: "You can lead a horticulture.......... but you can't make her think!"
Grey beard Posted October 22, 2008 #43 Posted October 22, 2008 Hi folks. I am a lurker, gleaner, user of great tech info, and now a new poster. I have an 07 RSV, and used to be a gen 1 rider until it got totalled in a rear ender this spring while I was standing near it. But that's another story. Like several of you, I am having some of the radio issues, of squealing, cutting out, and no control over the settings. My dealer's service department split the fairing and did the connector dance. Now he is going to order the replacement controller. Gonna ride Brown County next week with several of our church biker club folks. So there ya are. I am not lurking any longer grey beard

Schlepporello Posted October 22, 2008 #47 Posted October 22, 2008 To lurk, or not to lurk. That is the question: whether 'tis nobler in the minds of men to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous retorts, quips and posts, or by opposing, end them with a mighty flame - aye, there's the rub!
Snarley Bill Posted October 22, 2008 Author #48 Posted October 22, 2008 this thread is going good. we got a bunch off the fence. glad to here from you folks. lets here from some more of you good people on the side lines. i'm loving this. we are here for you through thick and thin. just give us the chance and we will all show you. no favorites on this site, we all hang together as one. when the going gets tough we are all here for each other. posting on here is contagious. just ask me. bill :clap2:
dogman Posted October 22, 2008 #49 Posted October 22, 2008 For a non computer guy I was very apprehensive to post when joining this site. I first replied with caution to one of the threads and was met with great welcoming, which of course gave me more courage to reply to another. Then that frightful day came when I wanted to post. I too could not figure out how to post (remember I'm not a computer guy.... I'm a dog-guy) Fortunately I met Don himself at the Kitchner rally and he patienty talked me through the process without making me feel stupid. This site truely attracts the good motorcycle people. For those that like to read the posts, keep reading and enjoy them, but if you ever want to add your two cents or tell us of a great ride you just had or close call while riding, please start a new thread and watch the group respond.
