• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Kanye West got an F3!

............Darren if you are suggesting some of us are Racist because we aren't fond of Mr.West because He is Black I think you are way off base.........Because of things Mr. West has said and done over the course of many years I wouldn't care if He was white , red, yellow, blue, green, or orange......I would feel exactly the same way......and in the past I have offered you assistance on things Spyder oriented and it didn't matter to me what " cover " you were !!!!!!......Mike :thumbup:
Mike,
NOBODY mentioned race... Except you!
 
...........So what does " I never judge a book by it's cover " mean ?????..... Was this really a Literary thread and I missed that ????....Mike :thumbup:


It's an English Idiom which perhaps is not well known in the US. Means not making assumptions or prejudging people by the outward projection of their personality. Has nothing to do with colour or race, at least I've never heard/read it used in that context, but rather how they behave in public or the image presented of them in the media etc.
 
If we rode with him; perhaps he'd pay for all of the fuel being used! :joke:
I actually am glad to see some of Hollywood's celebrities buying Spyders:
Kanye West
Brooke Burke
Ryan Reynolds
The Bieber kid
Mike Holmes
Paris Hilton
Miley Cyrus, and her Dad

These folks get noticed... this means that Spyders will get noticed! :2thumbs:

Wait, Mike Holmes has a Spyder? He never even mentioned riding a motorcycle, let alone a Spyder! (yes, I've had the pleasure of working with him for a couple of weeks).

Wow! I can't believe that this thread has received this much attention. I don't care who he is, or what he rides. He paid for his and I paid for mine. The fact that he would ride one would actually make me possibly like him more. My thoughts are, ride your own ride, and enjoy yourself. If you don't like a certain ride, or rider, then it is your problem, not theirs.
 
Huh?

Who said racist? Mike you are the only one that said that. I don't think of cover as the color of someone's skin, but what they are known for by those people that don't really know who the person is. We only know what the media tells about this person we don't really know what's under that cover presented to us by the media. So put the racist card back in the deck, and re-shuffle!

..........Interesting explanation of that Idiom...because I always thought it went more like this " not making assumptions or prejudging people by their outward PHYSICAL APPEARANCE "...........I formed my opinion of Kanye West, not because He is black, but because of His " outward projection ".....same thing goes for Justin Bieber and He is Caucasian......................And to those folks out there who espouse " if you ride/own a Spyder you must be a great human being and I/we LOVE you " .....well I OWN/RIDE A SPYDER ,SO WHERE IS THE LOVE .......:dontknow::dontknow::dontknow:.................Mike :thumbup:
 
Mike, Darren wasn't suggesting that you or anyone are racist in any way. The way PistonBlown explained the phrase is exactly how I have always taken it.

I think we spring to come really fast. Too many of us are getting cabin fever. nojoke

Would like to know something funny? :D
If you just thought of them both as idiots (for whatever reason...), and said that; nobody would have been the wiser...:thumbup:
 
Never met you, but
