[QUOTE="Thump, post: 1073760, member: 1034"] This is the first time any magazine has actually given any credibility to the online communities. I hope it is not the last time we are asked for participation. Seriously, congrats to all of the boards that delivered bikes and congrats to DR Mag for recognizing the online communities. I am proud of the bike that was delivered for testing, proud that one of our moderators built it, proud that another moderator modified the engine and yet a 3rd moderator did the suspension and proud that this web site has become respected enough to have these leaders in the industry want to be a part of this site rather than just donate parts. Most of all I am proud of the way the discussions were handled here. We get a lot of heat about our moderation tactics and are often times criticized for being strong on the censorship. I think it is just a way to weed out the meatheads leaving us with a large mature community that really enjoys the sport, without the ASCI egos. One thing that most boards have in common is criticizim of the magazines for product tests saying you bow to advertisers/friends and people that funnel money to your pub (potential subscribers). I think you called this one spot on and if you had given rave reviews of all bikes you would likely see an increase in subscribers, so thanks for being honest. You said our bike was loud at 97.2 dB and while still legal with the allowable variance, we agree. Despite having a forestry approval 96dB exhaust system on the bike it was still loud and if asked to participate again will be an area we will strive to improve on. Thanks again for involving us, we look forward to the next time. :cool: [/QUOTE]
