KSRC started sometime in 99, can't remember exactly when as it wasn't reallty suppose to be anything long term, just a test case for a web site I was running. (a zx7r site that has long since dissapeared with the free hosting company that was hosting it..)
There wasn't many Aussie motorcycle forums around at the time (unlike now, where it apears everyone has one of there own..
). There was a few in the US but that was a bit too far to go for a ride...Its first incarnation was a Yahoo Club (hence the KSRC, C for Club not forum or group or whatever else is used these days). Yahoo Clubs was similar to Yahoo groups, which is still around now.
It was that similar that Yahoo decided to merge the Yahoo Clubs into Yahoo Groups and KSRC became a Yahoo Group in Oct of 2001.
The Yahoo group is still there, although locked to stop the spamming.

We only had a geocities home page at the time to promote the site as that was free and we had no income.
Thats also still there but pretty crappy and out dated.

In March of 2004 the Yahoo Group had about 500 + members and was getting too big for the basic free hosting site, so after a discussion at the Wsbk round that year it was decided to step it up to something similar to what appears before you.
When the new forum started in March 04 we had about 500 members
In March of 06 we had 1000 members
In April of 08 we had 2000 members
Today we have 3000 members.
Exactly how many are active are unknown as a lot of ppl join but never post.
They also join but don't log in as you don't need to unless you post.
We do remove as many dodgy sign ups as we can find but still know a lot get through...
So there you have it, KSRC for the last 10 years..
Perhaps we should have a 10th anniversary or birthday party at the end of the year.
I'd be in for sure. Bout time we mate the treck to Sydney for a piss up and show you lot how to do it
