• 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.

    Dead battery after random person turned my hazard lights on

    I ordered a Scosche PBJ300-1 300A battery pack off Amazon yesterday after reading reviews. Then Amazon had to mess with me, an order showed up on my account I hadn't made... so at 2am I was on the phone trying to figure it out.... they finally realized it was a replacement issued for an order...

    Dead battery after random person turned my hazard lights on

    There is, I ended up running to Batteries Plus and grabbing their cheap battery last night after spending the day searching for a lithium battery where everyone was either out of stock or had a week or two delay in shipping.

    Dead battery after random person turned my hazard lights on

    No, just that the jumper terminal kit only included a positive post/wire and instructed to attach the negative jumper cable to the frame. I know it will work as the whole frame is grounded, I just don't want to scratch the paint. I do see a couple of bolts in the area, so I guess that fine, I...

    Dead battery after random person turned my hazard lights on

    WTH? I'm not the one selling the kit, its on multiple motorcycle websites.... not to mention, I've installed multiple automotive accessories that asked for the wiring to be connected to frame for the ground path.

    Not at all... that is how that particular jump port product is setup.... a positive terminal installed in the front wheel strut area and no negative terminal. They specifically say hook the jumper cable's negative side to your frame.....

    Dead battery after random person turned my hazard lights on

    I did find the Spyder jump port mod that seems somewhat popular. I guess it bothers me a little that this specific design calls for connecting ground to frame on a jumper clamp, I've never seen a smooth jumper clamp and don't want teeth digging into my paint...

    Lithium battery advice and review

    Hows the Bike Master working out? Seems that Shorai's are out of stock everywhere so I'm considering your Bike Master battery. I have made note of other comments, that lifetime of a battery on a 7 year old motorcycle probably shouldn't be my biggest concern as I'm unlikely to keep it for...

    LiFePO4 replacement battery

    Any particular reason you went with the LFX36L3-BS12 and not the LFX24L3-BS12? Shorai seems to indicate the LFX36 is the recommended battery, but Motosport.com says the LFX24 is the direct replacement for the YTX24HL Based on numbering, measurements and CCA, it would seem like the LFX24 is the...

    Dead battery after random person turned my hazard lights on

    Yeah, I mean it couldn't have been targeting me personally as its about 20 miles from where I live. Street parking in high traffic areas is always playing roulette ....

    Dead battery after random person turned my hazard lights on

    Thanks! Does putting a direct cut off on the main battery cause issues with the electronics if they are powered off for an extended period of time? Of course maybe it won't matter if I really just put a new battery in the Spyder... it is 7 years old, a new battery would likely hold up to a...

    Dead battery after random person turned my hazard lights on

    Thanks! Yeah, small is good. I've got one for my SUV and its a pretty large brick. Of course the one time I ended up needing that one.... I had just put it inside and was charging it :banghead:

    Dead battery after random person turned my hazard lights on

    So I came back to my parked F3 today and found the hazard lights flashing and it wouldn’t turn over While waiting for my jump start to arrive…. I’m looking to solutions for three things: 1) is there a kit to wire up a kill switch for anything that can be powered on by a random person who...

    BRP hood stripe decals

    When I bought my F3, I ordered it with the hood stripe decals. Dealer had to replace it multiple times because it wouldn't go on correctly and would start to bubble. A few years later, their most successful one has filled up with bubbles across the entire surface. Has anyone else had better...

    Diagnosing Limp Mode

    Alright, so its been about a week and a half since I siphoned out half the tank, and i've topped off the tank twice. I'm still getting an occassional limp mode, the smell of (gas?) burning, and i'm still having my original throttle problem that precipitated this whole thing. What it feels like...

    Diagnosing Limp Mode

    Ohhhhhhhh maybe that is my problem.... So I just read up on Rislone which i used this year (Complete Fuel System Treatment)....the instructions called for full bottle, i just watched their video and they just said "also good for motorcycles, just reduce the dosage".... I didn't remember see that...
