• 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.

    electric can be bulky if you have limited space. I have a ryobi tire pump that is fairly compact. It works very well. and the battery seems to hold its charge. When going on more than a day trip it gets left a home and I use a bicycle pump. I can pump up the tire in a reasonable amount of...

    Kanine tires not certified by BRP

    Legally there is nothing BRP can say or do. However you should be aware that if you are in an accident you could be held liable for not using the recommended tire or advertised replacement for that rim. And be found at fault for the accident even if it was obviously the other persons fault.

    Drive through windows

    I have only done banks. The tellers at our bank usually get a chuckle when I pull up. I have a stack of the paper work they require for transactions and I just fill it out at home and put everything in an envelope. I have had one of the female tellers ask me for a ride.

    The Scoot Coupe

    There is a 150cc version that claims 55 mph most of the "scooter" speedometers read optimistic so I would say the claimed 30 mph for the 49cc version would actually be 20-25 mph and the 150cc would go about 40 mph at its top speed. the smaller one would not go fast enough to get out of its...
