All Dennis has to do is set up a VIP section for "paying members.  This section ofers deeper discounts and crap like that. Plain and simple if you consider the number of members have everyone give $1 per month or a yearly $12 donation you would have $48,384 per year or $4032 per month.  then we could have a busa give away yearly and still pay for the site then some!!

Just sent some $$$$$ by Paypal. I too am guilty of taking this site for granted. I feel all warm and fuzzy now though....

I know MH probably won't do this but why not have a $5 - $10 annual membership fee?  It would generate the necessary funds to run the site, and weed out people who either don't value the site, or have established ID's and are gone?

Just a thought.....

I am not sure that a "annual fee" would be a good idea because, if new people that are coming to this site do not know about all the good information then they are probably not willing to pay for something that they know nothing about. I say leave it for free and just advertise the donation button more often, like this thread...

Ohh yea Donation will be made as soon as I finish surfing the new threads..

Well I haven't sent anything.  Its not that I'm unappreciative, its that I'm unemployed...     However when I do get another job, I definitely don't mind sharing!!

Dennis-  I don't visit here much anymore, no more Turbo Busa, now riding a Gold Wing (that won't last).  Still like to support you and my friends on this site, money is on the way via PayPal.  Keep up the great work Bro!  I will return someday to once again become "Busafied".   Pappy

Thanks D.    Hope it helps.    
By you donating time and effort to keep the site up, you've indirectly helped me MANY times.
I'd sure be happy to also buy you a beer sometime.    
Thanks again,
Campbell

I agree.  Some members have more ability to support the site.  I wouldn't want to see someone's family come up short for the sake of a site donation.  There's enough members with plenty-o-cabbage to get the job done.

You know who you are, send in some loot!!
Fuck it, I retire.....🍺
