Add bike build section?

    Other forums have a section dedicated to bike builds only. I think it would be a good addition to the beeb. No BS, just bike builds. It's interesting to me to see what others are working on and document their progress. Yea, we have an Other section and Tech session but a builds only section would be cool.

    I actually like that the WERA forums aren't very divided. I hate some of the forums that I visit that have a bunch of sections.

    I do really want to see bike builds though. Start a post and have at it. I'm sure people will join in.

    Converting a street bike to race trim, hybrid build projects, taking a total POS and turning it into a rideable street or track bike, doing a complete tear down and rebuild after a season of racing, etc.

    Seems like we're all on the same page and those are all things we're likely to do.
    Question now, for me anyway, is which project do I start with? :D

    That's a firm NO from me.

    I don't need to be reminded by people like you that my bubble gum and duct tape method might leave something to be desired.

    I'll go first. Doing my first oil change on my 300 swapped Grom and added the recommended 1.5 liters for the engine (2017 CB300F). Should I be adding more because of the orientation (the angle the motor is installed at)? When I bought the bike I could see the oil level in the site glass but even after adding an additional 0.5 liters (that's 2 liters total for anyone keeping score at home), I can't see any oil in the site glass.

    Cool build. It would be more cool to see how you did it, etc.

    RIGHT!!!! Every other forum I try to get started on (AR-15/WR250/Thumper/ADV-Rider) I get super pissed off and annoyed quickly because EVERY FUCKING THING is sub-divided all to hell not to mention all the stupid dark colors and themes and advertising and bullshit. And every time, I'm like....why can't these fuckers be like the BBS......fuck it, I'm out.
