• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    FedEx is the worst!!!

    My daughter has a small brick/mortar boutique business. Due to lack of storage at her store, she has her stock delivered to her house and stores it in a garage bay. FedEx is a delivery service of one of her venders. The dumb ass delivery driver must have forgotten that a vast number of people...

    Lame USPS - sending my items on a nice long road trip!

    My latest USPS debacle. I ordered some frame guards for my Husqvarna 401 last week from a company in PA. After two days of "processing", they mailed them out via 3 day USPS priority mail. They went from Waynesburg, PA > Warrendale, PA > Charlotte, NC > Gastonia, NC > Olathe, KS. They have been...

    Madstad out of business - Sept 2025

    Too bad. They made excellent products, as I owned a couple of their shields/hardware over the years.

    Can Am Spyders Resale value isn't great...

    Location has so much to do with resale value. Here in WI, with a short(er) riding season, resale value is usually less than the national average. I dealt with it a couple years ago when I sold my 2019 F3S. Maybe try to sell it in your winter home locale :)
