Having been on the WERA bbs for over 9 years now, I've got to say that the CCS forum seems like it has way fewer haters posting.  The thing that really iritates me on the WERA bbs is non-racers making posts like they are experts in the art of motorcycle racing.    I guess I'm just trying to find a new home that has sane, reasonable conversations taking place.  Hopefully, time will tell me if this forum is it.

I'm one of the top contributors on the WERA beeb.

If you can learn to navigate the nonsense, there's good people and good info over there.

That said, the discussions here are less robust due to the lack of participants.
Should this forum grow, you will see some of the same issues as that's just what happens when stuff gets that big.

Do or do not, there is no "try".

Oh, I know ALL about the WERA bbs.  I've got over 3,000 posts without trying.  In particular, I'm tired of all the bs in the general section.  It has gone downhill the past year.  It's even become like a little clique in ways.  I'll still lurk there some but I've grown tired of it.

I am turning into an alien over  time since I race a 2-stroke.  My latest creation is a hybrid Aprilia RS250 with Yamaha RZ350 installed.  The RZ engine has a Trinity 396cc kit in it.  It's great fun.  Hopefully I can go bar to bar with some of you SV and Ducati riders.

Two strokes are cool I've got an antique rs 125 but i'm about 100lbs two heavy to ride it. My friend mark brown is a nut about odd two strokes I know he's playing with a tz750 sidecar motor not sure what its going in he's also a super fast rider when he's talked out of retirement

I know Mark and he knows me.  Last time we raced against each other it was at JGP several years ago.  He was on a TZ350 and I was on my RZ350 racing in WERA  vintage.  I think I beat him by about 5 seconds or so.  Mark is a good guy and I enjoyed racing against him.
