• 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.

    Strong gasoline smell after riding - is this common? Any fix?

    On to my next problem. I am hoping that someone on here can diagnose this one. Over the past few rides, I am noticing the smell of gas fumes.

    Unstable ride feeling and 180 degree turn today

    The ST ride and handling.

    Makes sense I have a 2013 ST. As far as I know, there are no mods. I am 6’ tall and weigh 250. The bike has 9800 miles on it. Most of that was in and around Dallas TX so I would not think that the riding has been to aggressive. I have been riding motorcycle for 40 years and Spyders for one week.
