Last week I was reading the comments left by jpoppa on MikeGyver's 916 street fighter thread. Mike started an awesome thread detailing his Ducati 916 project... then nothing. I happen to know Mike from another forum (CustomFighters) and he is very active there and has created build threads for several of his Ducati projects. He's an awesome builder.
Now I can't speak directly for Mike, but what I suspect is that he may have lost interest in posting to BARF for lack of engagement. We builders spend a lot of time on our projects... then spend even more time to photograph and post thoughtful updates to the forum. We enjoy doing this even though it can be very time consuming. We don't ask for anything in return except that you enjoy reading the posts.
So here's a suggestion... if you enjoy our posts consider being more engaged. This will help us to stay motivated to keep the updates coming. If you read a post that you particularity like let us know. I can see the number of views (which is great) but getting a personal reply is much better. Even better than a simple comment is when you ask questions. I don't have all of the answers even on my own projects. At times I may specifically ask for feedback. This level of engagement is what we really like and keeps us coming back.
Anyway, I'm grateful to the admins for creating this sub-from as a place to showcase our moto projects:thumbup
PS- if you know of someone with a cool project (like KPKE) please encourage them to start a build threadarty
