What do you think of a new forum area << knowledge base >>

Important information such as color numbers, torque information, etc. briefly summarized and thus easy to find.
Here in the forum there are always great help and good advice, but often the topic branches so far that you have to search the actual information for a long time.
Please do not misunderstand me, I think it's good if there are many good posts, but the proprietary information disappears easily on many posts.

Therefore only moderators will be able to post in the Knowledge Base, but there will be a thread in which you can write suggestions, change requests, etc.

What do you think ?

Holger

Seems like a good idea to me.

Current motorcycle collection: 2002 Yamaha FZ1; 2005 Triumph Bonneville T-100; 2011 Royal Enfield Bullet 500; 2009 BMW F650GS; 2016 BMW R1200RS; 2018 Zero S 16.6 kWh

Great idea Holger, you are correct the general discussions are really interesting but the �hard data� can get lost in the threads, so a Knowledge Area with specific fact based data would be a very useful resource.

I don't mind transferring data across now and then. Things like torque settings, best biscuits for the garage, which coffee machine etc

I think the first thread in the sub section should have the title, "PLEASE READ THIS FIRST". The body of the thread should read

READ THE (insert suitable adjective) MANUAL and have a screenshot with the search box highlighted

Just saying :P

Very true, but I don�t always have a manual on me, whereas the iPhone is usually to hand (sometimes I wish it was the other way around) !

As noted, Holger. I think this is Bravo's unique way of deviation..............best if management is driving the bus.
