Haven't you already done so in the past? IIRC we, the members, were happy because you weren't pushing the sales, you showed us you riding them and how they were lasting over time?

I'd be happy to at least see them ...

Dont worry

I would guess that the answer to your original question is something along the lines of if your threads and posts are helpful / interesting rather than spammy then people will have less of a problem about them.

Someone from Motard Exhausts used to post quite frequently on here and was a very good advert for them. Thumbs Up

It is a fine line between trying to push products, and product information I know. I dont want to burn any bridges with trying to push new bikes on here at all.

I do actually want to advertise too. A lot of people dont have 4k for a new 125, and Id like to say to them "You dont have to have that sort of money"

Ill wait to hear from Admin about it. Dont want to annoy anyone

Can someone give the overlord a prod on Facebook or wherever his lair is? I'm interested in hearing what Sinnis are up to.

The usual answer to anything BCF related will be a variation of 'please don't facebookspam me', lets see what happens this time. Laughing

I'm all for hearing about exciting new products. I'm not sure how excited i can get about your bikes. We've had some good participation here from industry players, and i think it has worked well for some of us as there's been enthsiastic discusion of their product. Motad springs to mind.

If this feels like a spammy advertising dump or there are quality issues with the product that are not addressed properly than it will not work out well for you.

So what happened to taking your latest 250 on a long trek? : Lands End - John O`groats or some such adventure?

I seem to remember that last time you were on here, you was thinking about doing something like that to prove your new model`s worth?

TBH if the link was posted, I would be eager to read it...
However if were being technical if he works for Sinnis and posts an external link to anything that helps promote their products in any way, then surely it is by definition "advertising"?

Sinnis, along with Lexmoto, are the two importers of Chinese bikes who seem to be making an effort to actually build a real brand. I'd like to hear more about what they're up to, and what's coming next. Sinnis branded 400cc+ bikes, for example, would interest me a lot more than WK's offerings.

The fact that Mike is engaging first and asking about paid advertising suggests that it's not just going to be a spam-and-run.

Does Korn like boobs more than money?

I still read this as "I can has Sinnis?" Smile

Just to echo the Borg's comment, if someone is trying to get a footing in the market by liaising with the community first, I'm willing to listen. If it turns into a spamfest, it will be rated accordingly.

Im talking to admin at the moment. If some see it as spam, and some dont - its probably best that I go through proper channels.

He didn't need to be pushy with their products and I expect that guy was of more benefit to their company than a paid advert banner or sponsored link would have been.

It might have been my sales pitch which blew the deal for Sinnis bikes.

"!!!!"

"go to bcf, take money from bloke going on about advertising on bcf, pay me commision Thumbs Up"

Maybe we I should start accepting payments from companies who're wanting to advertise on BCF. Korn doesn't really care what goes on here as long as it doesn't cause him hassle and he almost never comes on here so it'd be at least a few years until he noticed what was happening. At that point I'd just offer him half the pot of money as a bribe and everything would be cool again. Laughing

Very honourable of you.

Bear in mind that some folk are always going to scream "spam" at any post from any business, particularly if it's about something that they're prejudiced against like Chinese made bikes.

I do think people jump to clicking the 'spam' button at the slightest hint.
Personally I have no problem with ontopic blurb, but accept others may not.

Motad's previous social media person who posted on here did a really excellent job; accepting criticism with a level headed manner and offering genuinely useful help and advice.
