• 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.

    myths and prejudices...

    I started riding when I was 12, 1954, with a Cushman step through, since then, I've had everything except BMW, BSA, Guzzi, and a handful of other brands. I've had VW trikes, a heavily modified Harley Servicycle, and now I'm on my second Spyder. I've heard "why don't you get a REAL bike", and...

    newtons to lbs belt tension

    A newton is a measurement of force, your belt is adjusted to a tension. Something like the force necessary to accelerate 1 KG at a rate of 1000 meters per second squared, if I remember right. john

    Anyone ever ride the U.P. of MI.?

    The last time I rode the U.P. was over 30 years ago on a Virago, stopping whenever I saw something interesting. Took over a week to make it around Lake Michigan and back home to Wolverine Lake. Good times. john

    for us gun people.....

    I've owned guns since I earned enough to buy my first, carried since I came of age to get the license. I try to keep up with training, at least every 2 years, and have taken my kids and grand kids to gun safety classes and to the range for practice. Good video John, keep 'em coming. john

    Missing - Joke Forum, so I'll just start a thread.

    A friend of mine had his name changed legally. He told me that on the day he was born, his father looked at him and said to his mother, "let's call it Quits". j

    Foam grip sleeves are great, but every Crampbuster I had stretched to the point it had to be replaced. I use a Throttle Jockey, it has a velcro strap, so it stays in place. john

    Gun Question....

    The gun I just sold is a Springfield XD compact, put over 2000 rounds through it, tried many different lubes, sent to factory twice. I loved that gun, and the way it shot, but I needed a vise to hold it so I could rack the slide. john

    Gun Question....

    Okay, thanks for the input, I got some answers from various sources; the folks here, folks on another site, and a good friend who is a gunsmith. The model I'm getting will be a PX4 Storm Compact, which is small enough to carry easily, big enough to hang on to, and, for me has really good slide...

    Gun Question....

    I can, but my left hand isn't steady enough to hit the broad side of a barn from inside, and getting it back into my right hand may just take too long, if you know what I mean. john

    Gun Question....

    I have tried quite a few compacts, and some sub-compacts, and found 2 that I can use without problems, a Glock 23, and the Beretta PX-4 Storm, of the 2, the Beretta fits better. I've had Berettas prior to this, and liked them, but don't know anything about the PX-4. Primary reason for going...
