Cool Sup Guys.

Sup, I've been into Evo's since about 2006, pretty recent I guess. Just turned 17 in June. Just got my license (I Know, late). Hope I make some new friends and learn about things I didn't know about Evo's and what not. Thanks!

Smile Keep asking questions like I did.

I find it very tough in some aspects when understanding Evo's. I just keep reading and keep asking questions and I have picked up a lot of knowledge from doing that. Evo guys that know a lot may get upset for you asking a question that has been asked several times, but don't bring yourself down because of it. Just keep asking and questioning and take in the info like a sponge. It took me a long time, and I'm still learning alot. Keep positive and all the best bud!

Smile You are right.

There's nothing wrong with asking the same question again. Even if you creted a second thread with the same question, it would just be creating and opportunity to recieve different perspectives and different opinons on replies for the question. Over-confident people always like to bring people down. You just have to remain strong and simply refuse the criticism....that's all.

We were all noobs at one time. Some people forget this.

Some guys get a little extreme with their flaming, but some of them have a valid point. A lot of questions from newer guys and girls have been discussed to death, possibly years ago. A lot of them were pioneers when discovering the information and in some of the informative posts, people took a lot of time to research and write them. It is understandable when they get insulted by seeing the same question over and over again when they may have already provided an in depth analysis of the same issue that is just a "search" away. Some guys get upset and they have no right to, simply because they did not positively contribute to any of the information worth reading. So, yeah, it can be a little unfair for new guys, taking it from a lot of different directions.

If you are looking for information about something, the good informative reads are "stickied" at the tops of most of the boards, so that is usually your best place to look for an answer first. Then try the search, and when that fails ask the question under the proper subject heading.

A suggestion for not getting flamed would be careful phrasing of the question. For instance, if you want to know something about what exhaust to buy, say something like, "after reading through "blank" post(s) about exhausts (and maybe list the threads so people see you have tried), I still need a little clarification on the Fujitsubo and the RRE exhaust systems." If you ask "What exhaust will get me the most power?" well that's an open invite to flaming.

Hope this helps a little.
