So a discussion starts about why he's still scabbing on "2002 style" and such... requests are made to show the important stuff. Its all made out to be "Top Secret" so no images are posted. Everyone laughed at MPS when they did that to hide their crappy craftsmanship.... S/H gets a pass for doing the same thing.
His "loyal" ass kissers line up to defend him..... next thing you know.... bam... nearly the whole thread is eliminated.
Hmmmmm........ He's a "site sponsor" over there. I guess that buys you protection.
Ever wonder why we dont have sponsors? Now you know.
LOL!
I friend just sent this thread to me..
too funny..
You and pstouffers were just stirring shit over at cr500 riders,
I replied in hand.. and in good fun? I wasn't serious , where you?
you think its surprising it got tossed?
my replies there got pitched as well .big deal
it was all nonsense anyway.lighten up
no one made anything out as top secret?
wtf are you talking about?
How about some reality? i know it pains you though
the photos were from our european distributor in Luxembourg, he got an early model and took some simple photos, very similar to what Yamaha, Honda or anyone else would showing a new model in simple side profile.
no black helicoptors or rags over any part of the bike?
go to
www.AFbigbores.com to find the pics..
you continue to dwell on some perceived aesthetic issue
that's an incredibly small aspect of an entire motorcycle, as its all you have to latch onto ..
about a model that has over a decade of reliability in the hands of some of the best riders in the world,
then pretend you don't have an agenda.
You need to either repost your TT public apology to me , or retract it,
i could care less
As usual you make up more BS than anyone i know,
you had to make your own website as the rest of the net couldn't contain it
Take a joke bob and pull the stick out of your ass,,
(or is that paul up there ?)
the world will look a lot better , i promise.
I have as much right to throw some funny BS back at you as anyone else?
So when anyone steps up to the plate, and builds a few thousand
of these, then you can rally behind them just like you did a few others that built a handful and failed in setting the world and this industry on fire as you preached from your pulpit here.you got a free pass on that one in my opinion.
My view is the more 500's the better,whoever makes them!
my only issue with MF was publically announcing here he that he was buying parts we paid to have designed from our vendor, if he wanted
to pay for the stamping and order the needed quantities, no problemo, but he dint .
it would be no different than buying triple clamps from so and so vendor and boasting about a back door deal.simply weird.
You know bob i never posted the countless emails from Mike where he
begged me to build him a 125 chassied 500AF..
he would wash my wife's car for a year, mow my grass etc etc..or where he asked how i did the cradle etc,, as he has a neighbor or buddy who had a 500AF LE and wanted me to make him one.So its not like he disapproved of the handy work then he had went over it with a fine tooth comb.
I let that stuff slide, even after mike decided to lambast my work
to promote his own.. why? because i genuinely wished him well
even though i found his tactics at that moment a bit low.
I figured he had has reasons, and let it go..
you and a few others take me to task for a view on things i don't even posses.
I can't do much about you or anyone else, making things i *think* up out of thin air, its the net after all, and this is your own personal playground.
yet until someone does step up and makes any actual dent in building a decent percentage of 500cc 2 stroke units. SH ,while in your eyes the anti-christ, has had more to do with keeping the 500 alive around the globe than anyone, and that must just keep you up at night.
i slept well bob..
I stand behind my work ,always have, and it's a good solid bike that handles incredible well and performs great.
if it isn't YOUR cup of tea great !!
I work my butt off to keep up with orders as is,
and find most of this internet stuff amusing at best.
I really had no idea you still actually fretted over SH's continued success with this one model,but guess i should have known.
With aging parents, i've a ton of family things to work on , not to mention bikes to build..or i'd stay and play more often.
in the meantime i suggest some exlax or at least geritol ,, your one tired schtick is pretty old and needs some help..
but my guess is you'll carry on with spinning everything off into some weird dealio, keep your panties in a tight wad, and that tin foil hat on real tight ..
