I understand that maybe it was not directed at me, however over the computer you can not always tell, my fault sorry for getting excited.  But I think too that maybe an alert to what Mr650 is saying should be a sticky at the top of Rubberside down or something?  Newbies will not read this thread to specifically see Mr650s notice.
I like the idea of posting additional questions on to similar threads I just didnt think it would be noticed as quickly if the title thread is not what my question was.

Have some good riding this weekend!  8)

Ditto here. Except the answer to my problem was not in the archives already. At least not under shift/shifting.  It is now however

Mr_650 has a valid point, but I doubt that he really is aiming it at Paula (even though she's caught in the net, anyway)

I doubt that this section will ever be so organized that threads will be continued, rather than new topics created.  Just looking down the current "Page 1", I do not see one totally new topic...we have the seat topics, the pipe topics, and carb topics, all worded differently of course, but exactly the same subjects as before....and the same repairs, corrections, and fix its will probably be recommended by the same people that discussed it before....

Considering that just about every aspect of the bike has been discussed, SuzukiSavage.com could stand alone just as a reference site.  John could turn off the posting features, and just leave it for people to "read only".....but then the membership would decline, and the site would fizzle away....

The real reason this site has done so well, is due to the idea that the total confusion caused by all of the repeat topics is a mirror of our human condition anyway.  How often do we need to know the correct spelling of a word, but never actually open a real dictionary to look it up?  We either use a spell checker or just simply ask someone...as in, starting a "repeat topic"  Besides, we are lazy, wanting the fastest and quickest solution to everything, and we have egos that make us think that our question is more important and accurate than someone else's similar question.

Humans aren't happy unless we can turn order into chaos, so trying to organize this site would probably be the end of it.  People would just go somewhere else and ask someone else.
