Welcome

Hi, I'm David, forum lurker for a while and I finally decided to register. Great forum. Thanks all.

PS: Can't seem to post any new threads... What's the protocol to ask a few questions about a particular bike? Thx.

WELCOME!!!

You're in the nursery.
You have to make a few posts and spend a bit of time here before you can post new threads. It's to prevent trolling and to prevent people asking questions that have already been asked.

Use your nursery time to search threads and see if the information you need is already here...

Or post in the "Any Questions Answered" thread.
