• 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.

    7K M1 oil sent off

    Great discussion on oils! Thank you all. Discussions backed up by technical data are much better that "it's what my dad used!" I got introduced to Mobil 1 industrial oils working in the electric production industry where everything was backed up by analysis. We used it as predictive maintenance...

    Wing Ding & Reverse Trikes

    Wing Ding 38 - great turnout! Yes, with the poor economy all 'high end' brands including Goldwing suffer. Moving the Goldwing production to Japan was a big mistake! Earthquake damage to the plants, slow design changes, etc .... Reverse trike is a great design. It's taken a few years for Can Am...

    TIRES ????????

    Hi Flo Oil Filter

    Changing your oil without also changing the filter is like taking a shower and putting your dirty cloths back on! Yuck! I won't risk voiding my Warrentee over saving a few bucks on a filter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
