I made an account there a couple months back asking a couple questions about the SX bikes and I didnt get any info so I never bothered to go back. I like this place much better.

Well I got you all beat... was banded for agreeing with some of you about cyclehutt. and I thought
Pat and I were somewhat friends. I'd bought a bike from him once and helped layout a track.
He told me I had thrown him under the bus...wish there was a bus now...

Well at least you said something on his site, I assume he didn't like me saying how strict they run their site on this forum......I guess my point was proven.

That is so sad. Lurk on TT to find people to ban, lame. Life is too short to stay mad, sounds like ktmtalk should listen to that themselves. Banning someone is a very serious measure to take. Banning forever is even more drastic yet it is thrown around by ktmtalk for anything. In the end KTM owners loose plain and simple. More than a few people have suggested starting another KTM web site and that could easily be done but with TT I do not see any real benefit to starting a new site.

But, it's the absolute best KTM resource on the planet...

I take ktmtalk for what it is worth, a resource. I do think some of the policies squelch differing opinions, but it is what it is.

I do what I do for the riders, which is what makes these sites work anyway.

Traffic over there is a little slow and they're a relatively new upstart. The more people join the better it will get! The guy that runs it, Bajadog, appears to have a pair and I can't see the place having the same type of emotionally driven issues as KTMTALK.

I've been banned since 2007. So I went in the back door and never ever stirred the pot again. I hope this post doesn't get my other me banned. I like it there, but it took a while to get used to.

KTMTALK= Insecure old men that protect their low self esteem by banning anyone with a opinion that differs from theirs.

You know I can listen to an opinion and enjoy the fact that it is garbage or usefull, but to sit there and with no facts and just talk BS about an opinion/product even invent false claims this I found at KTMTALK
One ADMIN guy over there is a little whiney man with no skills and he cant take the heat, let them have the website all to them selves. Face it KTMTALK plain ole sucks.
Not even worth registering there, I could make an account but what is the worth when you cant communicate with the community there?

Glad to be here with no issues!
Now I have made plenty of orders from KTMHUTT with no issues, but not in the last 2 years, I hope they are not going downhill, I had great service from them...

I'm in good graces over at KTM talk but rarely go there. The only time I go there is if I cannot find it here or by PMing a couple of very knowledgable guys on here. I just dont like the attitude over there. I've ordered quite a bit of stuff from Munn and that has worked out ok but I generally get pretty good prices from my little KTM dealer so I use them now.
