| Re: newbie from the land of OZ Welcome to the site, Blayne.
There are several other Honda Forums that contain a few members that don't like the crowd here. Hey, can't make everybody happy, right? Regardless, said individuals tend to disagree with this site's rules about stunting. To each their own.
There are a bunch of good people here as well as a bunch of good info to be had, just, as I'm sure there is on other boards. |

| Re: newbie from the land of OZ Bad rep???????????????????????????????
Not these guys. They only state what they believe and adhere to it without fail. The other groups are just weak and can't take the cricism. Trust me, this is the better choice.  |

| Re: newbie from the land of OZ Some people are pretty touchy about stunt talk on here, and it is stated clearly in the rules what conduct is not tolerated on this site.... but everyone has done a power wheelie or two.
I will pull the front end up a little every now and again when i am "gettin on it"
But as for the rest of the "stunts" I just dont do them #1 cause i like my bike lookin pretty and #2 cause i dont know how and do not wanna learn.
I really dont see anything wrong with it as long as it is off populated roads and the only person that could get hurt is the guy doin the stunts. If you are in an empty parking lot...hey its your bike, your money... Whatever...
This site and its affiliates just do not want to condone that type of activity is all... We obviously get a lot of flack for that. but I have learned a lot from the people on this site and made some Great friends just as you have i am sure at RRZone.
I hope you enjoy your time here at the .org and once again Welcome Blayne! |

| Re: newbie from the land of OZ blayne,
Read rule #8 closely. It says STREET racing, or STREET stunting. The idiots who do their racing and stunting in traffic and on public roads are the ones that put others in danger and are not wanted here.
Saying "stunt" doesn't get you banned. Being Big Kahuna does. |

I haven't read more than a couple of threads over there so I'm not too familair with the site but here there's a real "community" feel. All the regulars seem to get along pretty well, any crap that is slung is all in fun.
