• 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.

    Nanny Question

    It may be a lateral accelerometer, but it can be fooled IF the road banks to the inside in an uphill turn very easily (actually lifting the inside tire a foot or more) without triggering either wheel braking or engine cut-out. This leads me to belive that it is really looking for LEAN ANGLE in...

    Nanny Question

    :agree:Also the rear tire can SLIDE sideways on a slippery surface and not spin at a different speed than the fronts, therefore not triggering the traction control even if they handlebars are turned.

    New Guy ... Some observations

    I'm a cheerleader that has no trouble with this scenario. The problem is that they can't tell us they are working their a$$ off to find a solution Its a bit of a catch 22. Say anything that says you are digging at the problem and legally that would put them at the mercy of sue happy lawyers...

    Gas Mileage - ~19mpg after ECM recall

    :agree:The "update to the update" that includes the new hose for the canister vent is to correct this.

    DPS roulette

    My personal experience with VSS activation on the SPYDER indicates that it does indeed apply the brakes both independently to the outside front wheel in a turn or rear wheel slide and apply the brakes when the rider is not touching the brake pedal at all. The VSS only needs a differential...

    BRP Comfort Seat

    I bought the Comfort seat. I think you get what you pay for with it. The improvement over stock is noticable both in looks and riding. If $$ were no issue I would have gone with the Corbin, and gotten more comfort and looks for more dollars. In this one the wallet ruled my choice, but I'm...
