Maybe bimota factory could have a facebook page?? Bimota owners global could keep up with news and order items direct!

you can bore the tits off people by accessing on-the-go?
impressive, on a fast moving site like this, where you'd actually be unlucky to miss 3 posts if you didn't log on for 12 hours.

| I kind of echoe GeeKay and Pomps comments, suppose old dogs have to be dragged into the 21st Century to keep it on the go, and I think all of us would miss the Forum if it were to sink under, but whether facebook is the way, not sure. Great believer in "if it ain't brke don't fix it" but not a facebook fan myself, they own the pictures, comments, etc etc and you can't take stuff off, as it remains in their ownership |

Don't do it, 2bims!!!! I'll join you in the quest to stay in teh 20th Century...
Actually, I want a phone that is just that - a phone. I don't want a camera on it, I don't want access to the Internet, I don't care for email, and I'd prefer to not have texting on it. Good luck even trying to find a cell phone that is just a phone!

| What? You don't want to be one of those sets of people that ges out with their mates, sits in bars and restaurants, opposite each other, never talking, just sitting on their phones, tweating and pinging and twittering and uploading and downloading and making new "friends" that they've never actually met? Rather than just plain chatting and enjoying themselves? May sound odd, but there are peole in this country that just do that on a night out, they may as well stay at home. I laugh my cotton socks off at them. I went up to a group of 4 people once in a British pub that were sat in the prime position in front of a roaring open fire place that were doing just that. I asked if they would give up the spot as clearly they had come for a night out, but were tweeting folk that weren't there and they hadn't actually spoken for over an hour, all just fixating on their little portable screens, and chuckling privately to themselves...20th century for me, 19th if I could (but with bikes ) |

Well fk me for mentioning it;(
Just thought that you could catch up in areas you wouldnt take your comp/ i would have said laptop but sounds like some of you still use commodore 64's,
The other reason is the facebook can be on your comp too,
Theres several BIMOTA sites in the pages section,
The italian fan page has some good pics and decent people( fallappa), then theres the bimota shop that was posted up here before being on here, get with it guys, or just like your riding, your being left behind!

Oh and the versions of fb change/ uk are on the new timeline version, were as most of the italian ones ( bimota italia/ fan page/ service page)) etc are running the older version , slightly different! but still more up to date than anything you fine on the computer/ half of them sites are dead!
Man, just last season i was watching mark marquez on the paris hilton gresini honda, and ended up actually comunicating with paris hilton and gresini team members - word! Its good and bad!
