New "Marque Remark" category?
« on: July 06, 2008, 02:38:19 pm »
Gents,

Just looking thro the "Marque Remarks" one can't help noticing there's nothing there for Canam & Cooper.

Bearing in mind the impetous such a forum as this gives to the restoration & preservation of different marques, esp if there's a marque-specific category, I was wondering if it was worth asking "Admin" to initiate another category specifically for Canams & Coopers.

Might even get a bit of Jones-Islo/Ammex & Carabela thrown in from US guys. Perhaps even HD MXers could be included. (I'm sure many of you would have seen the highly desireable one at CD)

What you think?

The only problem John is that there's only a couple of Cooper and Can Am owners, great bikes that they are. If we have another category on the Marque Remarks section maybe it should be for "Everything Else". That would take in all of the odd bod stuff like the Mexican ,American and Canadian bikes and everything else that isn't covered by the current categories .

KTM,British and Italian are pretty low on posts.
Maybe put the "everything else" in with one of these.In another subfile.
The Italians wouldnt mind would they    :-X  ;)  ???

I agree that we haven't covered the Mexican stuff, or the CanAms. But I think I would go with the Everything Else idea. How does 'Other Makes' sound?

I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

Yes I realise the numbers maybe low. I'd be happy w "Other Makes". What does "Admin" think?  Does anyone know how to contact them?
