• 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.

    I have a 2017 F3-Limited and the windshield is not large. A serious question for riders who like a taller windshield. What is the reason for the higher windshield? Sorry if this is obvious, but something I wondered. Thanks in advance. Jim

    Look at my rear tire! Crazy!

    That's how mine wore and the dealer told me it was because I had the tire pressure at 29 PSI it was over inflated and caused the premature wear in the middle. He told me if I had the tire at 26 PSI I would have gotten more milage out of it. I don't believe my issue was pressure related, the...
