• 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.

    Rear Shock - Adjustable Replacement??

    shock options I never regretted spending the bucks to have Cogent Dynamics in Asheville, NC, build a rear shock for my F3-S. Huge improvement in ride quality, and simple remote pre-load adjustment (no more locking rings!). They are good, honest folk with whom to work. Pete

    F3 shock on a 2013 ST?

    decision I opted for a very plain vanilla decision. Even though it seems the lengths of the two different shock applications are essentially identical, given the wide variance in spring length and "poundage" between the F3 and the ST shocks, rather than chance buying something that could have...

    F3 shock on a 2013 ST?

    eye-to-eye measurement? A little help please. I have researched that the eye-to-eye (ETE) measurement for the F3 shock is 17 11/16" It will take removal of some bodywork to measure the ETE on my ST, and my time is severely limited. If someone can provide the ETE distance for a 2013 ST front...

    RATTLING - Is something about to fall off??

    rattle Check the belt tension adjusters at each end of the swing arm. If they aren't snug, you can peck on them with your finger and they will give a light rattle. I this is the source, there's a chance your belt is not correctly tensioned (anymore). Hope this he'ps. Pete

    Riding gear

    full gear? The nurses in the ER are so sick of seeing road rash they scrub the gravel out with stiff brushes and a vengeance. I cringe at the thought of having to have an extremity immobilized in a cast with a whole bunch of raw skin on the inside. Proper jacket AND pants for me, thanks.

    a newbie from FL

    saddlebags? You inquired about saddlebags. I found the BRP"Cross Country" items to be flimsy and poorly designed. Switched to SHAD and couldn't be more pleased. Much cheaper and MUCH better.. Solid attachment, high quality latches, don't require a ket to operate unless you have a need to...

    arm rests and comfort On our RT we had a set of arm rests (Rivco) to supplement the adequate passenger backrest. Travel fatigue for my second rider (called by some "the passenger") was not a huge issue. Then switched to n F3-S, with no arm rests and no backrest. Serious complaint of muscle...

    mirror extenders for the ST?

    Does anyone make mirror extenders for the ST? Laamont's product for the F3 worked great. Now that I've got an ST, I'm back to looking at the underside of my elbows mostly.
