Some weird stuff there, for sure.

I just signed up to this forum, and was immediately weirded out by the welcome message from a dead guy.

 

I sent you a PM.

 

We’ve arranged to fix the greeting, it was overlooked during changing of the guard!

 

No worries. I just lost a good friend a couple of weeks ago, so it took me a bit off guard!

Sorry to hear about your friend. From what I've read here he sounded like the kind of chap I'd have enjoyed knowing.

Cheers

 

He was. Thank you.

Sorry for your loss.

 

But the incredibly vast amount of info in the archives here & current help for topics is like finding gold.

 

I've noticed. I'm not terribly fond of online stuff. I did facebook for a time, but found it an annoying timewaster. I was involved with the excellent fjr forum, dedicated to the very cool Yamaha FJR sports/touring bike, when I owned one.

This forum seems to me very similar, in the quality and quantity of interesting, informative and helpful members, and as you mention an awesome amount of archived info on the HHR.

My HHR is currently undergoing fairly extensive repairs following an unfortunate encounter with a large rock shot at me by a semi. It was very close to being a write off!

I chose the moniker, 'hhrock', to memorialize the incident.

Since it is in the shop anyway, I decided to install some minor performance mods, and began searching this forum for helpful tips, hints and perhaps advice.

Cheers

 

I hear ya man. When I go to a new forum, I look to see how long some of the members have been there.
Many places have huge turn-over. Here there are still some here since the very beginning back in late 2005.

Facebook is not for me, especially how on the news there are reporting how many times users have had their ID's made public. But that's just me. Old school..

Good name for your ride, bummer about how it got it tho..
