I like noob season around here.

in 6-9 months there will be a lot of parted bikes on the parts for sale list.

;D

That's just mean. [laugh]
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

Not mean at all.  Doesn't make me happy that someone crashes.  It does make me happy if they put the parts up for sale tho.  Totally unrelated.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Sing with me now

Allllwaaays look on the briight side of life!

That is a bit grim though. Mostly our noobs are good noobs and really I've seen a uptick in the quality. There's only been 1 question about milky oil sight glass posted this year. Back in my day there was like 10 a day... uphill both ways.

It's not a value judgement.  Just a statement of fact.  Good/bad/ugly/whatever. 

Noobs dump bikes.  If you haven't dumped a bike EVER, then you're unusual.

Seasoned riders dump bikes, too.  If you aren't out there dumping bikes, you are not riding enough.  So just go out there and dump your bikes, people!
