• 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.

    too many problems

    I really appreciate the time you took to answer me. I have on question concerning the 55 mph in 5th gears. Try as I may, I can't find anything in the manual that says I should not be in 5th gear. I certainly runs fine at 50mph in 5th. So, I am confused. What is the sweet spot as far as rpm's go?

    too many problems

    Sorry I did not give enough info. First, the heating problem. I solved that by installing the air management system. Seems to work well. It would not shift into neutral by itself, especially when first starting the bike, in the event I forgot to put it into neutral before I shut it off. Went...

    Towed back to dealership......again

    battery problems I had a similar problem with my RS. I seems that the battery lasts only about 2 years. My RS was running great, stopped for gas and would not start. I found out you cannot jump start them, well maybe you can, but the bike will only run about 100 yards. Guages were going crazy...

    RT wouldn't stop despite braking & Kill Switch operation - any others?

    Thank God she is alright. First things first, she did have God as a passenger. I have experience the same situation, but in dry weather. Almost in all cases, it was missing the break pedal with my foot. Almost bought the farm the other day and without question, I will have a hand break...
