• 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.

    DESS error and overheating It was in the mid 80s (and sitting in direct sun) when the initial error code occurred, and and low 80s second time. The key came out of the ignition feeling very hot. This is why we tried cooling the ignition area down. So I'll make sure the bike is in the shade...
