In an effort to streamline the board, I'm in the process of consolodating some of the topic categories, so some threads will be moved from their original homes. The search feature will still find them though.

First on the list was the elimination of "Strange and odd motorcycle news stories..." and "SQUIDLY NEWS"
These threads have all been moved right here, to "General Motorcycle"

Next, "Roadtrips!" threads have been moved into "Rides/Events/Trackdays/Schools/Trips"

"Rider Safety/Bike security" topics moved to "General Motorcycle"

Next, "Roadtrips!" threads have been moved into "Rides/Events/Trackdays/Schools/Trips"

Then I changed the BOSS Rally header to "Rallies, Rides & Events" and put the above under that with a new title, "Events/Rides/Trips/Trackdays/Schools"

In the 600-1250 section, titles have been reduced. Engine/gearbox related topics were moved into respective categories for Air/Oil Cooled & Water Cooled. All other subjects (tires, suspension, comfort/appearance, mods) were lumped together into a commom "Big Bandit Banter"

I don't see any FAQ for the 650/1250 watercooled bikes at the top.... only 600/650/750/1200 air/oil cooled bikes.  :sad:

We didn't have one before. We'll create one as soon as we have some frequently asked questions on the water-pumpers.

I thought about the seat and headlight ones as likely candidates, but haven't done anything yet.

Let me update the "Seat Adjustment" thread before you put it in there. I left out a step, which I have included the procedure, but it needs a couple more pics to be complete.

The "B1250 Headlight" thread also needs a couple more pics to show the adjustment points.

Then you can condense them into tutorials if you want.

It'd be best for you to edit said posts for best appearance or creat new ones, then I'll move them over.

Good idea. I'll let ya know when they're ready.  :wink:

Ok, the "Seat Adjustment" thread is edited, altered, illustrated and posted in the 1250/650 FAQ section.  :grin:  

The headlight one still needs some work, and I want to take some clearer pics. Probably later this week.

Looks fantastic, Paul.  Thanks!  That must have been a TON of work.

It wasn't as bad as I thought - and I was sitting around @ work waiting for jobs to come up that never came (earning triple time), so it gave me something to do.
