• 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.

    Engine Locked

    To my knowledge, The fuel controller only manages the amount of fuel to the bike. So out of all the Fuel Controller units that has been sold mine was possible the only one that could have tricked the rev limiter to go out of range ? Also that 11000 rpm over rev on the buds report that BRP is...

    Did they repair under warranty ? My dealer told me that the only way to over rev is to miss shift(ONLY A SECOND OF OF HIGH RPM ) also but know way cause engine damage as it did to mine. Unless somehow the rev limiter mal functioned .

    You're correct it does, So if it did actually happen that means there factory rev limiter failed.
