ahirsch Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Dirtrider, We all appreciate your sage advice when our bikes are working less than ideally. I know I speak for others when I say that we all appreciate your dedication, wsidom and knowledge. Thanks, Andrew Link to comment
roger 04 rt Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 +1 on that. Especially the effort to create clearly marked photos from pages of the various manuals. That's so helpful but very time consuming. There are several other regular contributors too and we are indebted to the as well. Link to comment
twelve Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Hi Totally agree..Invaluable advice given for those like myself. Thanks D.R. Tay Link to comment
OlGeezer Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Funny, I was thinking the same thing. Link to comment
janoc1 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 +1 DR your support is fully appreciated! Link to comment
Shiny Side Up Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 DR is a fantastic resource for all who read his posts and has much more than a "working knowledge" of BMW motorcycles. It is my personal opinion that his mechanical abilities are second to none. I wish he were my neighbor - although I'm sure he's glad he's not!! Link to comment
Selden Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 My DR epiphany was back in January when I had put my RT back together after replacing the clutch. It wouldn't start. I described the symptoms, and DR replied 24 minutes later: "Check the #3 fuse for power on BOTH SIDES with fuse in place." Link to comment
Jerry Johnston Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 And a very patient guy as well as helpful. Link to comment
nrp Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 DR has bailed me out more than a few times. His posts are always so well written too. Link to comment
GregsARed Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Another +1 He/(she?) is quick to reply to one and all, with very thorough responses. And Thanks to all who share their knowledge. Link to comment
David R Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I learned a lot from dirt rider here. I am a 30 year mechanic. David R raises a beer to Dirt Rider edit, thinking of him as I assemble my R1100 RT. Should have it running tomorrow. Link to comment
legarem Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Everytime I see something written by DR, I take the time to read all the messages. Thanks a lot DR for your help. Link to comment
JamesW Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I got to agree with all that's been said, DR is a resource for sure. Link to comment
dirtdreamer50 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Let's hope he doesn't decide to move to a Kawasaki, Honda or Duc. I have found over the years there is at least one fall back poster at all the forums of which I am a member, and it's nice to have one like DR here, as I am not new to motorcycles, but am to my RT, I read most all posts and look forward to good info being there...dd50 Link to comment
Kathy R Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I'd like to add my thanks to the chorus. It's folks like Dirtrider who make this place what it is. I am continually amazed at his expertise and patience. He's a real gentlemen. The generosity of all the members here causes me to heave a great big sigh. Link to comment
Galactic Greyhound Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Dirtrider and all the other helpful posters here are the modern Good Samaritans. We could all view a post and think "I'm glad that didn't happen to me" and then browse on. With such people taking the time to help strangers the world becomes a better place. Thank you.

taylor1 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Ah, I think he is just a show off! Seriously, You cannot help to admire his knowledge and patience which he generously shares with anyone who seeks help on here.I have also greatly admired his restraint when a few have tried to bait him into petty arguments and debates. I am sure he is a giving person in the other aspects of his life, and we are very lucky to have him Link to comment
Bruce (Bedford) Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 + another, & the first voice from England DR is always 'must read'... but as he/she(??) will be the first to say he is amongst others - thank heavens!! Bruce Link to comment
ESokoloff Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 :thumbsup: Two thumbs up OK... four. He's that good Link to comment
hisandhers Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Always something learned from DR! Many thanks to a fellow Ohioan.... Link to comment
