Biking News & Issues needs a revamp?

is it time this section got renamed ?
it seems to confuse people who post stuff about a scooter not starting.
perhaps call it" important news in the world of motorcycling"
if you can think of something a bit more catchy that wont confuse moped and harley types,feel free to add suggestions.

It needs killing off. It's just Rogerborg sperging about bike sales or stuff that should be posted in workshop.

Shouldn't this have been posted in Biking News and Issues?

It could well be the word "issues", but then if you removed it, I think the remit of that forum would be lessened.

I like that you can put anything in that section, like if you wanted to discuss almost any other biking-related things that didn't fit elsewhere, but not specifically "news" things.

Where else would you go to look about "biking groups" type of stuff, like MAG, NABD - even news about other types of biking venues or clubs (like ride-out clubs, as opposed to b.p. type of clubs ... LOL) that were not specific to a particular area or to "National" - or for things related to what nonsense the government might be up to.

I like it cos its an unspecific place to read stuff, rather than regional or bike-related matter which could be construed not to fall under General Bike Chat.
