I sometimes get the feeling that Google hates my forum. Bike Talk has been running in is current format for almost 2 years. I have vBSEO, VBA, sitemap, and other mods installed. When I search Google I only see a half dozen pages listed, however this listing is very bipolar. One day I will see 50 pages and another only see 12, and the pages constantly change under the "site:" search. Under Yahoo ste explorer there are over 6000 pages listed. Whats the deal???

Since I've already invested time and money into vbseo and all the other mods I really don't feel like adding on any more products. Any suggestions?

Do you have any links pointing to the site ?
I only see a small handful
link:bike-talk.com/ - Google Search

I'd work on more backlinks, and google will index your forum more.

Strangely when I've checked link:bike-talk.com/ - Google Search in the past it has shown over a hundred inbound links. Days later it changes, just like site:bike-talk.com - Google Search which bounces back and forth from a couple dozen to a few hundred pages.

I'll try to keep building inbound links but its still aggravating that pages get indexed and dropped constantly.
