The old forums aren't dead yet. I still visit a proboards forum with five active users!

Vehicle specific forums are still very active in a lot of places. I visit a triumph forum dedicated to only one model and there are a dozen new posts with discussion under them every day.

Yes - I regularly visit Proboard forum with 75 registered active users in the past 24 hours, and a phpBB one which also has a decent number of regular posters.
