• 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.

    Are highway pegs worth the expense?

    Hwy Pegs for new F3 I'm 6'-4" and with the footpegs in the most forward #5 position I would still like to stretch out a little further, especially on long hwy rides. Is anyone aware or familiar with how they could be installed on the F3?

    oil change interval & type My new F3S Spyder with the 'wonderful' 1330 engine has the first oil change & service at 3,000 miles & the second service at 9,300 miles so you can see that they don't suggest a 9,000 mi interval. What I'm not sure of is the type of oil, blended or full synthetic...
