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.

maybe my son...
NAPPER....
my son's company did the welding (TIG)... i'll ask him if he's interested in doing more of these... but i'll also ask him to advertise on SPYDERLOVERS.COM.... i wouldn't want him to be a carpet-bagger... he's already said that he would need to charge between $300 & $350... which in my book, is far too expensive... but again, i do this stuff as a hobby, he does it for a living... BIG difference...
PLEASE understand tho, that the one on PICKLEHEAD's RT now, is NOT LOUD... the CAT muffles the exhaust noise more than the muffler does... my MOD has a low rubble and like BIG BIRD said, it's sounds like a BMW M3 - whatever that sounds like??? if you want more noise, you'll need to do something about the 'cat'... i don't touch those...
and remember, i also did my RS... look:
even with the 'cat' in, it ROCKS....

EMISSIONS
SCOOTER, most states have EMISSIONS INSPECTIONS, and without the CAT, they aren't approved for the road... that's y i don't touch'm.... the RT has a HUGE 'cat' underneat, very visiable to the eye... if you remove it, they'd know immediately... however, on the RS, you can't see the 'cat' because it's inside of the muffler... they'd never know if you removed it, except your emissions may prove to be too high, and you'd fail the emissions test...
