• 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.

    2013 spark plug colors?

    Scotty, I'm not sure what they did to the ECM.. or if they tricked the o2 sensor, or what. And you are right, folks will not check their plugs.... even with the recall, most will not even look at their master cylinder. I was just trying to see if there is a big difference in A/F ratios between...

    2013 spark plug colors?

    Recall

    Hey Mark.... when parts are melting... one would have to assume it is a heat problem. I would PREFER that FB's bike not: run with WHITE colored plugs... Very Lean... and that the gas tank was was not so hot that it spews gas at her when she removes the cap and puts gas into the hot tank...

    NHTSA Recall on 2013 Can-Am Spyder RT & ST models

    The heat melted Flamingobabes' MC.... not to the point of leaking, but the brake fluid was black and gummy..... COOKED.... I would think that was not a supplier issue....That in it's self could put the braking system in a less than optimum condition.
