I am not anonymous

I post on yahoo and raging bull. All of my real information is in my profiles. I only post the truth about the companies that I cover. Sometimes the truth is a little brutal ;-) I just cover motorcycle related companies as I know all the players. I've been posting since l998 and my stock price and financial report projections have been 99.9% correct. I know exactly what is happening with the companies as I know all their vendors, dealers and quite a few customers.

I originally started following the boards in the hopes of making some money based on my information. Unfortunately these companies have not been doing well at all so there was no good news to report or honest money to be made.

I have received two cease and desist orders. One from Easyriders EZR and one from Ultra Motorcycle Company, old symbol BIKR, new symbol UMCC. I ignored both of them and continued to post. The CEOs of both companies called me up and yelled at me to shut up. We even met in person a few times and they tried to bribe me to shut up with offers of cash and a job with the company. They both even tried to come onto me personally besides threatening to sue me. One even threatened to tell my boyfriend we had a relationship if I didn't shut up. Needless to say I still didn't shut up as I know I am posting the truth here and saving some shareholders from a bad investment. I do post positive things on the Harley Davidson board HDI as they have had some positive things. I just post it the way I see it, and hear it.

Last year BIKR's paid analyst was personally threatening me and bashing me on the message boards to get me to leave. I did leave and then everyone got ripped off by a fake pump even though I'd warned them. They're trying to do another fake pump right now and I'm not going anywhere this year. Their next report will be bad, it may even be one of their last reports ever which is probably why they're all trying to fake pump it to get out.

I just wanted to say that posting non-anonymously is not a horrible thing. I haven't had any problems or wackos showing up at my house. As these people know who I am, they know I am telling the truth so they don't bother to sue me as they would just open up a big ugly can of worms. I bet there would be fewer lawsuits if people weren't anonymous. I'm not saying you should be non-anonymous, just that it's not a horrible thing. People can at least tell that you stand behind what you post and you wouldn't dare lie because it would be too easy to be sued for slander and libel.

Keep on posting.
