• 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.

Buying a new helmet - who replaces them every 5 years per manufacturers spec??

I never really thought about it, but I guess I do swap out helmets every 4-5 years. I tend to use a 3/4 helmet for the spyder and modular for the 2 wheelers. I also swap out jackets every 3-5 years also. That is mainly due to them fading over time. I start out with a black jacket and after about 3-4 years it is just a dark grey. My wife rarely rides (2-4 times a year), but she gets a new helmet each time I get one, except for this last time. I bought a LS2 modular for the cross country trip, and it is by far the most comfortable and useful helmet that I have ever owned.
