Survey

tiggen · July 9th, 2010, 04:48 PM

All,

I am looking into some ideas for a motorcycle related business, one of which is a market research firm focused solely on different subgroups within the motorcycle riding community. I decided to start with Ninja 250's because I have one and have spent a fair amount of time on this and other Ninja 250 sites. I am really interested in seeing what it is that differentiates the subgroups. I've got lots of anecdotal evidence, but I'd like some real statistics.

The following is a basic survey made with zoomerang. If you have the spare time and feel like filling it out, please go to the following link. Shouldn't take more than 10 minutes. Thanks very much for your time. I'd also like to hear how you feel about surveys in general in this thread if you are so inclined.

"Survey says..." - they suck.

Question #2 won't let me check all that apply.

The "where do you buy used parts" question needs an option for eBay.

Yes it does. Thanks for the constructive feedback!

Anybody else want to contribute? Wish I had something with which to bribe you all, like maybe a nutty buddy or a sweet new farkle or a free track day. I do offer my thanks!!

CC Cowboy · July 19th, 2010, 05:57 PM

Did I hear free trackday. that's so cool. Where is the free trackday, Road Atlanta? This is getting even better. Does the FREE TRACKDAY come with FREE LODGINGS for the FREE TRACKDAY? It could only get better if there was FREE FOOD along with the FREE TRACKDAY and FREE LODGINGS at ROAD ATLANTA. Do they offer an OPEN BAR with the FREE TRACKDAY at ROAD ATLANTA with the FREE LODGINGS.

So let me get this straight;

FREE TRACKDAY AT ROAD ATLANTA WITH FREE LODGING INCLUDING FREE FOOD AND OPEN BAR!

Here are some selected results from the survey. I am currently polling 600rr.net to see how it differs. Will post those here if anybody is interested.

Thanks again for participating. Wish it could have been more scientific.
