HondaTwins seems like a waste of space these days or is it just me?

I was referring to the search features on HT website; and I’ve been guilty in the past of asking without searching the data base for answers.
I’ve seen the questions asked by Ash about his bikes; but I don’t have the answers he wants so I’ve stayed silent.
I have found some of the respondents to be quite condescending sometimes in replying to newbies questions and also found some of the questions to be frankly moronic in their context but we are talking Americans here. They start off “ so I did this.. I have this ... and it’s clearly obvious that they haven’t used the search engine. It tends to make me tune out.
Peace and good health to all.

Also I was asked sometime ago if I could help out with manuals and parts fiches in PDF Format; and I have spent hours like others on this site converting them into PDF’s and I’d love to put the CB250/400N and CB250 RS manuals that I have on the site. I haven’t compressed the files; and they are quite large, but good quality as a result. I’ve also got CB350/4, FSM and parts fiche, CB200,
CB360, CL450; and some Suzuki manuals as well.
Night.

Hi Nigel...Some of those manuals would be really useful and I know for a fact that people on this site will really appreciate your efforts if you put them on here. If it helps, I can include them in my dropbox links. I am sure that members will also help by reducing the file sizes if you need help. JamesH did this for me until Hairygit kindly provided me with the correct software to do it myself. I have already included the CB250/360 G5 parts book kindly scanned by Chris on here and I am about to link the Genuine Shop manual for that bike , which I recently scanned to .pdf

A Cl450 parts list would be ;D I have to use the CMS ones, which jump from K0 to K2, missing out my K1.
My one post on HondaTwins, which I put some time into, hosting pictures etc, was met with utter tumble weed, so I didn't bother to follow it up.
That said It's a good archive of posts from people who have been there, done that, with a bike like mine, if you can be bothered to search, and filter out BS. What outrages me when I go on old forum posts now is the damage the photobucket have done to them, pulling all the photos that we put up in good faith.
[rant]I've read that the likes of Bill Gates worry that there will be, one day in the future, nothing to show for all this vast amount of knowledge that we have put online, as there will be nothing that can read it. This is the tip of the iceberg, and I'm not happy. :( [/rant]

I agree about digital images,music,and the written word,
what happens to all the early digital pics taken years ago,and maybe left on the old hard drives?
accessable to nobody,history gone !!!
