Looking for something to ask about
I have had several questions I intended to ask about and every time I think of something I come here and do a search and there is the answer. Seems every possible topic has already been covered. Good job guys. 
I am a member, actually a guru on a Goldwing forum and it's the same thing, pretty much every question has already been covered, you just have to search for it. Goldwings are a lot more complicated and have been around a lot longer and something new does come up once in a while.
I started doing a little maintenance this evening, changed the brake fluid and adjusted the pedal a little higher. Then I needed the owners manual so had to go to the house for it, got distracted and forgot what I went for so showed up back out at the shop without the book. Guess I'll start again tomorrow.

You're correct, Dave.
I kinda get frustrated when someone comes on and asks about fuses or tires or a seat. I wanna say, "Do a friggin' search. you bonehead!" But I usually don't.
I realize we have a bunch of retired guys on this site who really don't ride much anymore and enjoy sitting home answering the same questions over and over again.
Yeah, there's an awful lot of knowledge here.
BTW: Where does the oil stuff go?
Welcome aboard!

If someone is abusing the hospitality of the group by continually asking basic questions without using the search function, then yes they need some additional guidance....maybe in the form of a PM to straighten things out.
By the way....the oil stuff goes on the salad.
Best Regards....justjeff....not retired....ride lots....still enjoy helping out the newbies!
It's not a Tractor....It's a LOCOMOTIVE!! Chugga Chugga
