Traitor spotting
« on: March 01, 2018, 07:24:17 »
Given this site is not just for vstroms and we all share a love of bikes, should we have a section for other bike spotting so to speak? :shrug: :shy:

Very difficult unless it was sporting a club sticker.

Actually, if you are hoping to spot random makes of bike with some kind of link to this site, I should consider flags not stickers :)

I have v-strom.co.uk stickers on all my bikes.

Only one of them is even a Suzuki.

But it's not going to be much of a game if you're all just hunting me all around the country.  :crazy:

I was considering a sticker for the  car, with the site logo and 'I'd rather be riding my V-Strom'

yeah but no but the thing is that sticker will be great for V-Stromers but not for traitors and in any case this topic was about "Traitors" and how to identify them but not the ones who aren't  VStroms forum members but just other bikers. innit.

OK, I will be adding 6ft x 4ft flags with a universal pole for all traitor bikes to the site shop.
