Goodmorning, sorry wasnt well written.I don't get it![]()
Nicely put; a lot of though gone into those few words.Feeling lost? Have a question you think is too stupid to post? Sick of people calling you a squid?
Easy Solution
Ask your M.O.M. or D.A.D.
M.O.M (Motorcycle Owners Manual) Details on maintaining your bike, tire pressure, oil grade, chain tension, ect..... awe MOM... you always know the answers!
Let's not forget about DAD (Dealer And Distributor) Part numbers, oil filters, gaskets, servicing, accessories, chain lube, cleaning products, ect..... thanks again DAD!![]()
Ahhh... now I gotcha.... and yes... very true. It is "easier" for people to get on here and ask dumb and obvious questions when they have the answer a few pages away but are too lazy to read.'I dont believe Generation Y reads books... going by 90% of the threads on this forum anyway'
I'm secretly talking with Hondas PR & Marketing depts developing an IPhone5 app for all maintenance... gonna make me rich.Ahhh... now I gotcha.... and yes... very true. It is "easier" for people to get on here and ask dumb and obvious questions when they have the answer a few pages away but are too lazy to read.![]()
The point of the thread is merely to read the manual or ask a dealer before asking stupid or obvious things. Most people who post crap like "what grade oil should i use" or "what pressure should my tires be" are just too lazy or ignorant to look in the manual before asking someone else to do their research for them. Then you got people that ask questions knowing their way or idea is wrong that are simply looking for another idiot to reinforce their stupid idea.This is not just a Gen Y thing...
I have a friend who purchased a computer for his business years ago. Every time he had a question, he pick up the phone and call me (I'm a programmer). After the umpteenth call, we had the following exchange:
Me: "are you sitting in front of the computer?"
Him: "yes"
Me: " See the numeric keypad on the right"
him: "yes"
Me: "put your right hand on the keypad..."
him: "ok"
Me: "Now reach down 10 inches below the keyboard, pull out the grey binder, AND READ THE G**D**N THING!"
He'd still call me after that, but at least he'd try to look it up first....
thanks bro =]Wait. Are you saying there is no conspiracy from Honda to align the planets and cause global domination from the aliens on Gurlock 9"?
If not Gurlock 9 then who??
Seriously though, I like the MOM & DAD thing. Very witty. It makes me wish we had a "thumbs up" emoticon.
