The section is "Current Month", not "This month" - so someone who can't read is having a go at someone who can't spell :P

How do you know that the chap doesn't suffer from dylexia?

Personally, I don't give a fig whether the the chappie is a convicted drink driver or not. It makes no difference to him running a website.

I know a few people who have been so convicted; they are all decent people who have served their ban and have not reoffended. Ever hear of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act or paying one's debt to society? Sorry, but I find the wording of your post to be more than a little judgemental.

There are people on here who don't ride on the roads, riding only on track-days etc. So what?

There are quote few people who use these Forums who haven't passed a test and don't have a bike. I was one for a while. If he's currently banned then I'm sure he'll join in when the ban ends.

Seems like a potentially valuable web-resource to me, and three-cheers from me for him having made the effort. If it works then great, if it doesn't then at least he had a go.

I'm sure that we're capable of making our own minds up on that

Like what? Speed Four? Speed Triple? Both are very good bikes and are highly thought of/rated by their owners. There are quite a few SV owners on this site who have been lusting after the new S3.

Do you dislike anyone who doesn't ride, can't ride or, in particular, doesn't ride an SV?

Sorry, but the whole tone of your post has rubbed me up the wrong way. No offence intended for any of the above remarks.
