Copy and paste...

Yeah, don't ever get out the rule book. Let everything be decided by a bunch of short strokers on the internet.

MY opinion is if they are openly promoting pornography, nudity etc then it shouldn’t be allowed. But a logo on a bike , no website, or images etc then let it be.

Everyone who is up in arms about this would you be ok with movie studios, video game makers, etc being sponsors who have games and movies that promote extreme violence ? Is that ok to subject to kids?

I am blown away with how polarizing this topic is!  I can understand the opposing point of view. But I feel like its a little extreme. 

I just don't see the problem , if its  setup the way it is. Especially with them trying to get away from the Porn side.

Guys, we can all disagree on this…but, are we really gonna get all pissy about a young dude having a laugh…a sense of humor…? 

Look, I…too…am an old dude…but, I actually understand the whole “pay wall” thing and while I am of the opinion that porn is becoming a societal problem…I think we’re putting a bit too much blame in all the wrong places…?

I can't believe someone hasn't created a Jessie Helms user name to troll this thread. Grinning

I heard through an industry insider that Karnow spent the off-season living at the Onlyfans mansion. He's like the James Caan of Onlyfans.

I’m wondering how many bike builds are going to have OF logos on them now.

Well, they kill kids there in the junior and moto3 classes

Yes there is junior road racing but it’s hardly the same demographic as off-road/MX racing.

Has it been confirmed OnlyFans has been banned, or is this just 7 pages of argument over a false premise?

And we thought 20 years ago Metal Mulisha stickers were everywhere. How many Bro-trucks at the local track will soon have OF stickers in the rear window?

Pretty sure it’s been confirmed that it hasn’t, but maybe we should focus on the journey not the destination that takes place in this thread.

That text message is awesome 😂

You have to be either a complete asshole or a Sandusky level living-legend to send a text like that, there's no middle ground.

You know me, big fan of humor, but he's flaunting the seedy fact of what OF is. 

You wanna watch porn, pay for porn....knock yourself out.    If you're watching what's happening in the world today with children and it doesn't chill you to the bone, somethings missing. 

Paywall protection is BS.    OF trying to go change perception....lol.... there would be no OF without the porn. 

Putting blame in al the wrong places.... if people don't speak up....something, something slippery slope....

James Caan of OnlyFans is pure comedy gold.

Do you always get turned on and feel uncomfortable when a dude sits back on his dirtbike or just when Logan does it?

There is a lot of things wrong in the world, who knew that there could be world peace if people just stuck to free porn. 

Would You say that You are preventing child slavery by watching free porn?

I doubt that if all porn disappeared tomorrow that the world would be more peaceful. I'm not saying that Porn is great, just that I have a hard time seeing how its causing the end of civilization. I thought that Electric MX bikes were going to do that.

If you're upset with OnlyFans being part of the sport, you should also be upset with Twisted Tea sponsoring the HEP Suzuki Team. 

Both companies cater to the adult demographic at events that are not only attended by adults, but also children and people under the legal drinking age. 

You can't be mad about one and not the other. 

Both are legal, and both have restrictions and guidelines that need to be followed. It's all listed in the rulebook.

I did say earlier in this thread that I really didn't have an opinion positive or negative, but this thread is bringing up the one negative that I see. I will preface this to say that I'm no prude and living in the Daytona area there are plenty of single mothers who I've helped with "college tuition." That being said there are two very strong opinions on this subject and in a pure business standpoint I wouldn't want to get involved in that fray. Logan has chosen his brand and as an individual that was probably a good business decision. He has found a niche and should exploit it.

As an organization I would see no problem with AMA or Feld banning OnlyFans sponsorship because right or wrong there are customers who are offended by it. The larger an organization gets the more vanilla it should get when it comes to anything controversial. Ask Budweiser how it works when you try to please a faction of your customers that will directly lead to pissing off a whole other faction. 

 

TL:DR Individuals can profit pleasing a niche, organizations should avoid controversy. 

Pretty much agree with everything you said.

I have a lot more of a problem with the AMA making a rule change involving sponsors two weeks before A1 than I do with what the rule change is.

Even Energy Drinks are +16 in the UK for example. It makes you wonder if it isn't time yet to dismantle professional sport... 🤣

I’m not personally bothered by what anyone chooses as a sponsor.  Having said that…

Let’s not kid ourselves what Onlyfans really is, regardless of what anyone says it is.  And don’t be surprised when there is disagreement and outrage over someone having them as sponsors.

And yes, people can and will draw their moral lines where they choose.  Are you really surprised that nobody cares too much about an alcoholic drink sponsor but there’s a 7 page discussion about a sponsor that is a thinly veiled porn site?  I’m sure OnlyFans is rolling in cash; why don’t they sponsor a factory team?

Why would they? Right now they are getting more press than Team Honda.

They would have to sponsor an Austrian factory team, Japanese management wouldn't let their factory teams near them.
