Title: The problems with this site as I see it
Post by: ford832 on December 17, 2009, 04:04:51 PM
#1  Part three of the long term Maico test appears to be missing

#2  It appears someone stole the "Two stroke motocross.com"  arched front fender stickers from the store

C'mon man,patience isn't my thing ;)

Part 3 is coming very soon. I want to include video. I really want to include helmet cam video as well. That depends on if my wife loves me as much as she says ;)

Found it I think.I find all his videos are well done,and most don't have a gay sound track to ruin it-just the sound of the bike.Here you go.....

ford832 - I love your avatar and catch phrase, I haven't laughed that hard in a while!!

I had stickers made up, they are about 4 inches or so wide and made to fit cross way on the fenders. Not quite the arched front fender stickers, but......

I've got to take a photo of them on a bike, plus take a photo of the t-shirts which are now in stock.

It seems that you have run up against our filter when attempting to use a word that is one that I'd rather folks didn't use.... I wanted to keep the rabble rousing down to a minimum and thought I would have some fun in the process. It also makes it easier for the mods not to have to edit out stuff or send e-mails....

I'm eagerly awaiting to read part three myself!!

I just bought a helmet camera myself, a ContourHD.  I got the original one, not the new 1080p version, but it looks really nice.  You guys can expect a lot of ride footage once the weather gets good (usually around April-May is when riding starts.)

Here's a pop quiz on censorship.  Yay!

There was a popular YouTube user who created a website.  He had a live chat feature where people could discuss this and that.  Any use of certain words would result in the offending word being replaced with a link.  One of these words was "PCS."  What does that stand for?  If anyone gets this, I'll be impressed!

Hey John.Yeah, Mr. T is sort of timeless isn't he-lol.The stickers don't need to be arched.Post up a pic,they may make a good fork sticker too.When they're done,let me know and payment method and I'll get a pawfull for the YZ.That should make me all set for the scrambles season :)As for the filters,no big deal.I guess I'm from the age where the G word wasn't really politically incorrect.Interestingly,I find some sites that are filtered like that I have to Americanize Canadian/English spelling.Words like c o l o u r usually filter as gibberish for some reason.Maybe it's an American curse or something ;D

Sorry, you can try again.  I'll give you a hint, PCS was a nickname given to this user by... uh... someone who notoriously disagreed with his opinions, let's say.

Finally had some time to get some photos taken.....

Here are photos of the stickers that I had made up and t-shirts for that are interested...

In order to see how big the stickers are I've included a couple of photos on a bike....

Nice.  I'll have to get some of these when the riding season comes back.  I'd get the shirt now, but I only have $19 in my account, and I've got an endless supply of shirts already.

Dam computers!It would appear Jetzcorp has broken in to my bank account and already drained it to the tune of $1  >:(
The stickers look cool but it would be a shame for you to peel them off.It's probably better that you just ship them with what they are attached to-minus the starcross ;)
I'd like a tshirt and stickers.How much$$ and how do I do it?

Hey Ford832 - these things are available in the store.....

The stickies are stuck on my new TM 125MX racer..... the stickers will cost a bit more if attached to the bike...  :o :o

Thanks John.When I looked previously I hadn't noticed the stickers.I'll get back to you after my Christmas bill comes in for an order :(How much for the ones with the bike attached?Seeing as it's now used and all that I can't see it being that much ;D
Title: Re: The problems with this site as I see it
Post by: JohnN on December 22, 2009, 09:27:36 AM
Hey Ford832.... the reason that you didn't see the stickers in the store before was that I just added them!!

Have a great Christmas!!

As for the cost of the stickers with the bike attached, the bike does not have any gas in it yet, so officially it's not yet used..... :P

The cost of a new TM 125 MX is $7,499.00 plus shipping. If you buy one from the distributor, I'll throw in some stickers for free....  ;D ;D

You really need to pay more attention to what you're typing John.I believe what you meant to say is that if I buy the stickers you'll throw in the bike for free.Correct me if I'm wrong ;DMerry Christmas to you as well.
