I dont mind corrections.

I was trying to get my first dirt bike and after lurking on the moto sale section here and on CL for a couple of weeks I decided to post in the WTB MOTO Section here on BARF. Fast forward a few days and I found the perfect bike, that i was looking for, right here on BARF and below is the reason why I love BARF so much.

BARF is such an amazing community to a part of, its so easy to buy a motorcycle from a fellow barfer. I didnt test ride the bike, i wasnt even concerned when I went to see it. I just knew PhoS is from BARF and that its just not POSSIBLE to get ripped off by a barfer. PhoS was supper cool and now I have a dirt bike :D (would anyone teach me how to ride one now?)

As I'm only visiting the Bay Area for a couple of months, I needed to transport myself around and the bike that I just got to all the amazing parks and tracks California has to offer. I was thinking to just buy a cheap shity truck but the lack of funds was making it hard to find one that ran. However, a barfer, JimE, who rode the Himalayas of Pakistan with me (twice) called and said I could borrow his truck for the time I'm around here. :thumbup

I offered JimE to pay for insurance/registration costs plus for any work the Tacoma might need but his reply was, "no, just return it with a full tank of gas." :thumbup

Now I had the truck, the bike, a pair of gloves and a helmet. I went to Hollister last Monday, alone.

I was a bit nervous at first. Not knowing ALL the rules, I didnt want to piss other rides off unintentionally. I didnt want to go on a trail the wrong way or maybe there are some areas where riders are not allowed? I dont know, i was just a little nervous of fukin it up.
Well guess WHAT!! I MET ANOTHER F*CKING BARFER - lkosewsk

We talked for a few minutes, I told him I crashed at the MX track just now. He walked up to my bike and saw the right side hand guard all twisted, making it really hard to even grip the throttle properly. He pulled out his tools and fixed up my bike. Then we rode some trails together and now we are friends and we plan to ride again soon. Maybe even carpool to Hollister :thumbup

What the FUCK! WHO ARE YOU GUYS???
I cant wait to go back to Pakistan and tell everyone I know (i know a few people) how amazing this country is. I told PhoS and lkosewsk I was from Pakistan and still they did not hesitate. They didnt get scared of me or took a back foot, they actually step ahead and went out of their way to help me out. I cant wait to go back home and tell everyone there how amazing people are on the other side of the pond. Not everyone is a Trumper!

I can't express my feelings properly right now, but just know that I'm very very thankful to all of you for being so unbelievably amazing. You guys are absolute magic. You guys are the "good things" in life. I feel at home whenever I visit California because of you guys, because of BARF.

Last but definitely not the least, all you guys who work so hard, all the admins, contributors, budman and other people who help run BARF, I salute you! You all are true heros!


Much love,
Khan

Sounds great Khan!

Don't forget to take back the BARF Approved 3 second safety rule with you when you return Pakistan.

Fantastic, sadly not ALL Barfers are good people. I've met a couple assholes who screwed me over. But the majority are good peoples.

Moin, you never fail to amaze me. Your sense of adventure is eclipsed only by the size of your heart. You care so much about everyone you meet, and it shows. You make friends everywhere you go, and you share your love of motorcycles and Pakistan along the way. As one of the lucky few who was able to join you for a few weeks in Pakistan, I can see why you are so in love with your home. If more people were able to see Pakistan through your eyes, the world would be better for it.

There are a bunch of us on here who would give you the shirt off of our back if you needed it. I see that more as a testament to your positive spirit and joy than anything, but it sure does make me happy to be part of the BARF community, as well. I love you like a brother, Moin. Know that. :love

Hey, nice to know you're in the area. Hope to see you around. :thumbup

I've bought a couple of things and services from barfers. Definitely positive experiences.

lol. Good illustration of how if you only read the forums it's easy to think Barf is a buncha a-holes who are always at each other's throats. Once you start meeting them in the real world, you realize it's one big family that really is full of love and other gushy feelings.

Khan! It's you!! It was so nice meeting you the other day! :love

I confess I was afraid to open this thread, thinking it was going to be about some horrible BARFer-related experience... and I just haven't had enough coffee for that. But, no, BARF FTW!!!! Feelin' all the feels.
