• 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.

    998cc How hard is it to change the Shift Shaft Rod?

    I want to thank everyone who gave me advice and a sounding board. My bike is up and running and about 90%. Thank you all so very much. As an FYI to anyone who ends up doing this procedure. There are apparently 2 different shift shaft rods. The stock original OEM. You will know this one by...

    RT Seat size change, what year did it happen?

    Necro thread... sorry. If a 2014 RT seat will fit an earlier RSS that should mean it should fit an older GS as well. Am I right?

    998cc How hard is it to change the Shift Shaft Rod?

    It is done and my bike is up and running. Wierd thing is the replacement shift shaft had a larger spring on the end and seemed shorter. I had to bend my shift pedal to clear the plastics.

    998cc How hard is it to change the Shift Shaft Rod?

    With the engine off but key on, should I be able to shift up gears all the way to 5th? I can shift down to R and up to 4 but it won't let me shift to 5?!

    How did you get the basket off?

    998cc How hard is it to change the Shift Shaft Rod?

    Did you have to remove the clutch basket? I finally got my cover off. The shift rod is definitely bent (parallelogram not a square hole). Just having a Dickens of a time getting the shaft out due to the bending. Also anyone know a good source for the clutch cover gasket? Found out there were...

    What exactly does RSS Backrest mount to? Part numbers? Where might I find this??

    So from what I have gleaned through search, a 2013 RSS seat will fit a 2008 GS. I found a good deal locally on an RSS comfort seat and passenger backrest. But it's missing the hardware. What exactly does the backrest in an RSS mount to? What is the part number? And anyone know if what I'm...

    998cc How hard is it to change the Shift Shaft Rod?

    Thanks. I downloaded the "Shop" manual so I guess I have the correct literature. I'm hoping that's all it is just the shift shaft. The clutch only has 2k miles on it. Guess I will work on pulling the plastic and the exhaust off so I can easily get to the clutch housing bolt behind it. I...

    It's on good and tight. You can see the rod on the housing turning with it

    998cc How hard is it to change the Shift Shaft Rod?

    Downshifted and ended up only having 1st gear. Seemed it was getting harder and harder to find neutral. I drove down to the parts store for Jeep parts just fine, left, got out to the light and down shifted, then boom, only 1st gear! The shift pedal is floppy and loose?! I guess that's the best...
