• 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.

    RS/S Givi Hard Bag Connector Strings

    As I have seen so commonly, the screw that connects the cable that keeps the rubber string attached and prevents the lid from opening all the way down to the ground has broken out of its sad plastic housing. I have tried super glue with no luck, and read long ago about someone using a slightly...

    Weird Sounds

    It's the first time I ever experienced this, I did not notice any difference in power at all. Is this something that resolved itself for you over time? I am wondering if it has anything to do with the deluge of rain we've had lately.

    Weird Sounds

    Hello All, I started up my RSS to ride home today, and it was oddly quiet. It still runs perfectly, same power output and no check engine lights or other oddities. However when I roll on the throttle, instead of getting that ever so joyful rumble out of the hindle, I am getting what I can only...

    Octane Reqirements

    Ethanol Ethanol is one thing if your vehicle was designed to tolerate it, most were not but will not suffer damage. I avoid it whenever possible simply because ethanol in and of itself is 96% pure, the last 4% being water. I took two bowls of fuel and let them sit on a counter top, one 10%...

    Down shifting

    IMO (RS-S) When I am slowing for traffic, say I am in third gear going 50 and traffic slows to 25, obviously you will be off the throttle when braking and I downshift based on speed not on RPM. When my speed drops below 40 I drop to second, and below 22 I will downshift to first, because as you...

    Weird Gas Measurements.

    I have been noticing a strange trend with my RSS, and I am wondering if others experience the same. The tank is 6.6 gallons but when I fill up from being no bars with the gas light on, I only fit in 4.2-4.5 gallons. Is there some sort of measurement discrepancy or is this normal?

    yep You might want to take a look at the ICON overlord jacket, I have a white one its very high air flow, in the 112f degree temps this past summer I was only ever hot when sitting still.

    Unwanted solicitation could get you booted off this site!

    But really. It's kind of disturbing that someone would be so desperate as to see a forum like this as an avenue for such things. I understand being lonely but geez.

    Corbin versus Ultimate Seat

    yep I am interested in this as well. I have a 2011 RS-S and while the seat is comfy I wonder about room for improvement. I slide around a bit but that's probably because of the 303 Aerospace protectant on everything lol
