Here's some clues
EBay is for people punting stuff
This forum is 99% enthusiasts who just love the bikes and help each other out
4 posts now. 1 simply asking what something is worth. 1 biting back at someone merely asking for an introduction and a bit on info 9n the bikes. 1 joking about the people on this forum and 1 asking what's wrong with the people on here
Its a really friendly place here If you come on in a friendly manor
I have nothing against you and if you choose to stay π
Steve

How comes many people online are keyboard hero's?.. grumpy people when ever I trying to seek advice.. Credit to the nice guys/girls amongst you.. this is why our country has gone to shite.. Rant over.. This site is predominantly inhabited by 50+ salty old sea dogs, they love giving out advice, just some don't take it, and some advice is not so useful, watch out though, some will tell you things are going for less than they do, in the interest of trying to keep prices lower, ebay is the best price you will get for anything these days, they will expect things cheaper on a dedicated site, OBVs. Bide your time and watch what is going on on ebay, its up to you, its your stuff, and you can sell for whatever you want, if you ain't prepared to sell something unless you get x amount, then that's up to you, or you can just put your stuff on ebay as auction and it will find a buyer at the highest price you can get.

"1 joking about the people on this forum".. no one in her offered Β£10 for the engine.. that was another site.. I accept your apology.. Let's try again.. maybe it's a lost in translation kind of thing..

Iβd start by saying Hi Iβm ? Based in I have currently? ? Iβm hoping to do ?? And ?? Thanks π As I said earlier members get a bit peed off with people joining being asked loads of questions which 99% of the time theyβll gladly answer then the new member goes on eBay ignores all the advice and tries their luck. Also donβt mention the following politics, covid and injections π₯Ί Donβt ask which oil/tyres/fork springs π Seriously we like new members we love pictures

I didn't come here to start any trouble.. merely for advice.. I'm sorry if I cheesed anyone off.. at the same time if I feel the salt I sprinkle a little back.. but yes I understand I didn't post the correct details.. again I didn't do this internally to be a knob.. I'm just looking for advice as this is all a little new to me.. Thank you for the advice..

Hello Snoogy welcome in, we're not all Salty on here, you just got off on the wrong foot, good to see you've pulled it round! I use Photobucket for pictures, easy to use once you suss it out, there's a guide on here somewhere, most use Tapatalk as it's even easier but i've not used it. Andy.

This reminds me of a bloke on the A/C forum. Can't recall his name on there because I'd love to tell you it. Apparently been riding bikes for 30+ years and has quite a few including an old GS1000. One of his posts was 'how do I put a bike on the centre stand'. You can probably guess what my reply was. He also liked asking questions about his garden strimmer. Alex
