I'm on here because I have been for years and the chat makes me feel grounded.

I routinely use the Tiger 800 and F650 forums initially for the huge wealth of information/ expertise available.

I also go on a couple of adventure bike groups where I enjoy reading about other's going all over the place and using that as sources for my own little jaunts out.

Forums are all starting to die away thanks to facebook.
one thing facebook got sorted was the ease of access and for all from either browser or mobile, where as forum software mostly stayed static and behind the times.
only issue i have with facebook is the IQ of the average poster and so much click bait.
For every question asked on facebook you seem to get 8 stupid answers where people just post because they can without any actual knowledge of the topic in question, and a couple of sensible helpful replies.
Forums are mostly the other way around and the baffling registration procedure helps keep the dime bars at bay.

However one forum i use quite a bit simply because of the personalities and banter is the PB forum. you need a thick skin there and they can smell blood like sharks, mucho piss taking goes on there.

Performance Bikes?
I remember Performance Bikes magazines from the late 80's and early 90's - fond memories and leagues above the watered-down, neutered, drivel found in current magazines.
My favourite two subscriptions adverts from PB were:
1. Subscribe or we rip the nun!
2. Subscribe or we waste the puppy!

Proper piss takingly funny!

PS For the Ned Flanderers and PC Brigade, PB magazine uses a mannequin for the nun and a stuffed toy for the puppy.
