• 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.

    Brake Lights Staying on after ignition turned off?

    If you haven't added an aftermarket full size brake pedal, then an adustment on the brake light switch seems to be in order. Doubt on a brand new bike that this is a return spring problem. FWIW Al in Kazoo

    Is this Torque for rear brake caliper bolts too high?

    When at just snug, place the palm of your dominate hand over the head of the ratchet and tighten using just that hand in that position. Never had a caliper loosen nor have I ever stripped a bolt tightening it this way. FWIW your results may vary. Al in Kazoo
