• 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.

    Just replaced my Original Yuasa Battery with another after 7 years!

    I just replaced my original Yuasa battery with another Yuasa after 7 years with no leakage at all. I'm happy to use the same type of battery, 7 years is OK in my book.

    wierd park brake fault

    I’ve had an occasional fault with my F3 LTD where the park brake display remains ON no matter whether the brake switch is ON or OFF. When the fault occurs, if I try to switch the ignition OFF I get the alarm sounding telling me that the brake is not engaged even though the brake display is ON...

    F3 LTD Frunk?

    I think a better name would be the 'Fruckit' ( for front bucket of course! ). After having to pull it out numerous times to access the battery (I'll explain this in a later post) Fruckit seems more appropriate. If you were watching me work on this beast you'd be hearing something similar all...

    another transmission mode?

    I’ve been having a think lately about the possibilties of a third mode of transmission for the F3. First we already have a 6 speed manual - obvious really and possibly the best solution for someone who has just given up 2 wheels. Secondly we have the semi automatic for those who can’t handle...
