T3
Keep it T3 - it takes hours to wade thru all the other stuff if it wanders off topic.
I'm with Mick on this one - This Forum is such a brilliant source for searchable help but that doesn't mean we all have to get anal about it - it is supposed to be fun after all......

personally I think a little lattitude should be given . unless you only log on here once a month it doesn't take hours to read through the new threads .

maybe i'm wrong and different than most of the others here in the classic triples forum , but i don't follow the other forums .

an occasional thread about motorcycle related topics among the members of the classic triple guys should be allowed and not moved .

OVER moderating a forum will stifle it . seen it many times .

sorry , just my 2 cents worth .

Woody,
I'm doing no different than I have for the past 3 years or so. the new forum structure makes this easier as at tleast you can trace moved threads.

New to board, prefer specific
My two cents, even though new to this site, specific is far superior when after information. I was thrilled to find T3 info when I was contemplating purchase of my first carburated T3. I love FI triples, have had two and hope to get a Tiger soon, but I don't care to read about them here as it only make it more difficult for someone with less time to spend. After all, (no sympathy expected) I still have to troll ADVRider, KTMtalk, the crappy BMW sites AND EBAY/Craigslist etc.

You guys have an awesome site here, rivaling anything out there including the two excellent sites referenced above. Please keep up the excellent job, specific rocks. Thanks.
MR

I'm with Mick on this. There is a ton of very detailed info on each forum that is particular to each bike style. The BHO is a great social forum but the specific forums are far more detailed and to be honest, are a great tool. The T3's are getting older and the issues to keep em purrin are going to increase. I've yet to talk to a Triumph Mechanic locally that has the kind of T3 info that oozes from these forums.....Ya want social.....toss a leg over with some bros and put some miles down.
