    Dropped my 19' Base today; not even sitting on the bike.... I JUST WANTED GAS

    I did a bad thing at a gas station earlier on a group ride... fell over on the exhaust side. SOMEHOW the damage was ridiculously minimal.

    How do you guys take care of your chains?

    I'm asking because maintenance on my 2018 KTM RC 390 wasn't a big thing; I basically kept the grime off it with a 3-in-1 chain brush; used from chain "wax" that was generic, and called it a year lol. But I put about 5k miles on it those first 12 months and plan to put 2400 miles on the FTR next...

    Anyone considered a Discord? I've got some ideas and it's a great way to grow the forum; and the comunity.

    Discord really has taken the Forum idea and pushed it to the new level. You don't have to have many Voice Channels at ALL if you don't' want to; have mainly chat channels, add Vendor areas where they can post new products; make it an easy place where you can literally @mention the entire usebase...
