Hi Graeme, the post is waiting for approval, I guess I get them earlier. Lou

I thought I was going crazy!
Graeme, I am with you on the DOB, it seems that not much interest from the majority of the next few generations.
The forum has helped me through a few problems during builds,most importantly it is all the great people I have met and shared our passion with.

Hi All,

In the nearly TEN years this forum has been operating it has only attracted 366 members. Most members have never contributed - or bothered to read the posts.

To put that 366 members into to context - the HyperPantah Facebook forum which caters for the same Pantah/F1/TT audience has been running for only 12 months. In that time it has accumulated 3,600 members with an average of 3,500 visits per month!

I regularly share posts from this Forum on HyperPantah to direct interest here, but since one member here scolded me for sharing images of his build outside of this Forum & consequently unfriended me on FB I have my doubts about doing the same in future.

NOTE: The number of current readers can be determined by number of views of the image below.

Most likely the number one reason the HyperPantah and Ducati TT / F1 Race & Symposium FaceBook pages are more active is the smart phone. People are more likely to use their smart phone to go to social media than a PC. Facebook is easy to open, read, post and follow on a smart phone. It is much more cumbersome to post replies and pics on this website/forum. That being said, it is more valuable for researching information regarding our bikes, so in the long run, this TT Forum is probably more valuable as a reference.

Hi everyone, I was very present in this forum, and I am still very proud to be a part of it, but when you live most of your hours with your work, because you can't do without it, caused by an economic crisis that you requires you to invent something to survive, everything else is relative. I am Italian, and rest assured that my friends will always remain in my heart.
I will try to be more present, sorry.
A hug to all the wonderful company of crazy people.
