• 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.

    My 2020+ Windshield Mod

    Transformation complete. In my opinion, the buffeting is now gone and I have a much better air flow in the summer time. -

    Installing PedalBox has increased idle speed to 1000-1050 - will this damage anything? Anyone else notice this?

    I have a Pedalbox on my 2022RTL and no changes in idle RPM either.

    Brake pads and rotors backordered - does anyone know if there's any in the US I can get now?

    Totally agree. In my experience EBC rotors and brakes are head and shoulders above what OEM offers. I've been using EBC as a replacement on all of my bikes for at least 20 years now.

    My 2020+ Windshield Mod

    So I decided to modify the windshield of my 2022 RT windshield before I go the route of spending $400+ on an F3 shield. I created a template of existing vents and 3D printed rubber plugs that fill them up. I also ordered a Show Chrome, GL1800 windshield vent that I plan on installing as soon as...

    In search of an Ultimate Trailer OHT3 designed for hauling Spyders - any input?

    I LOVE my Stinger. Great trailer for hauling my RTL and folds nice and tight in my garage.

    What Front Shocks Recommendations for a 2020+ RT?

    Thanks Dalmar, you have a good point regarding going with springs alone. Sounds like getting a full shock is the right call and I decided to go with Wilbers 630 from Martin. The only downside is getting them within a reasonable time. Hopefully, I'll get them in time for the riding season.

    What Front Shocks Recommendations for a 2020+ RT?

    That's great to hear. I am 8 hours away from Ron's place. If the weather was a little warmer, I can see doing an extended 4-day weekend there over Blue Ridge Parkway and visit Biltmore. I usually ride Blue Parkway at least once a year.

    What Front Shocks Recommendations for a 2020+ RT?

    I listened and agree with recommendations that you need to put some miles on your bike first and at this point have a few thousand miles under my belt riding my RTL. I really want better cornering when riding twistties a bit faster and it is no surprise that OEM shocks are not up to the task.

    Anyone tried to modify their 2020+ RT OEM Windshield with a GL1800 vent?

    Yes, @troop, I have seen them and was not impressed. There is a YouTube video showing how ineffective they are, but I guess I can use them to plug the old vents and add the GL1800 adjustable vent for better airflow control. Just wondering if this is more of a Band-Aid than a final solution...

    What Front Shocks Recommendations for a 2020+ RT?

    So, I'm very interested in upgrading the OEM shocks on my 2022 RTL and the 3 options I'm thinking about are Baja Ron/JRI, Wilber 630, and Elka Stage 2. With the money being a little tight, Elka seems to be the cheapest option. There are also H&R spring upgrades available on MTV site that is a...

    Anyone tried to modify their 2020+ RT OEM Windshield with a GL1800 vent?

    Anyone tried to modify their 2020+ RT Windshield with GL1800 vent? I would like to modify my shield to reduce buffeting I get during high speed on my 2022RT. I see that GL1800 OEM vent should fit on the shield but am wondering how much it would help? I'm also assuming that existing cutout vents...

    Got a PedalBox, getting VSS Fault & Limp Mode msg - any ideas/fixes?

    I did, but I haven't heard back yet. Since it's the weekend, I didn't expect any yet. Just wondering if anyone had the same issue?

    Got a PedalBox, getting VSS Fault & Limp Mode msg - any ideas/fixes?

    Hi All, I recently purchased 2022 RT Ltd and as must as I really like this bike, found that throttle response on it was somewhat lacking and my hand start hurting after a while. So, after reading up about Pedal Box/Commander I opted for a Pedal Box due to its water resistance. After I installed...
