Just thinking, I stuck mine in cos sometimes it can be relevent to whatever I'm posting, but I was wondering if it made me look like I was trying to show off my crappy bikes, sometimes I look at detailed ones and wonder 'why would I care what rearsets your bike has', though I'm sure people think the same about it in general.
Considered adding a "dont give a toss" option, but realised everyone would vote for that one I know I would. |

The make and model are useful, if someone is giving you advice on the basis of their experience of said bike.
The mods lists, 'it had snazzy bar ends and this really cool sticker lolz!!1111one', are a bit bollocks. ____________________ CBR125|||GSXR400|||CBR400|||CBR400|||CB250RS|||GSXR750|||CB250RS

I think it's handy to see if the person who is answering your question might actually have some experience of the model in particular, as opposed to the possibility they are regurgitating something their dad told them. Or, as my learned friend BlueX5 puts it, it's good for identifying n00bs  ____________________ Current: CB500 Previous: CB100N, CB250RS, XJ900F, GT550, GPZ750R/1000RX, AJS M16, R100RT, Enfield Bullet

i like to see, especially when someone's giving me advice, i would take the advice of someone who actually has the bike or previously owned it.
Its like a cock extension as well  ____________________ follow my racing season

I like mine as it links to the bikepics page, whereas the links in my profile go to the thread about the purchase or demise of the bike. ____________________ Current : MSX 125 Past : CBR 900RR Monkeybike : c50 LAC : ZXR750 H2 : FZR600 : ZX7R P3 : YW100 : TRX850: Trophy 900 T309 : GSXR 600 L0: Monkeybike : XJ6S Whosthedaddy |

Meh, depends what you've owned and the detail. Ones like blues at the top are fine. But when you get people on here with like 'speedfight 50 - Bore kit 80. Theory: Passed DD/MM/YY Test: Booked: DD/MM/YY' I do feel like asking why they feel the urge to point it out.
Good when people put in the effort to link em to pertinent threads though. But for me sigs should be amusing or have links. Not just a long list of bikes you may of owned for a week, or had a shotty on.
Remember when i wanted a job at bikestop when ~16 i very nearly handed in a full list of bikes id ever had a shotty on Muppet ____________________ China traffic/travel bike vid - When I make a sweeping statement, please add the word 'statistically' in to the sentence before you bitch...
From September 2014 to January/February 2015 I will not be using any English, nor reading any. As such, I won't be on here. PM at will, but I won't be checking/posting unless in emergencies. Certainly not for the first couple of months. Please berate me savagely if I break that rule... |
