• 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.

    Living here in western australia where the weather is ok for 99% of the year i can under stand the frustration that you must be having. your suggestion of transporting the spyder to warmer climes so that they can play and hopefully fix before you can get good weather and ride is quite resonable...

    Vortex Generators

    Anyone had any success with any of the inlet vortex generators on cars or bikes in the past. Ive been toying with the idea of installing one on the pathfinder as the fuel consumption is pretty crappy. Your thoughts are well received.:chat:

    Parking brake adjustment help...

    I take it that you are having trouble disengaging the Park brake. 99% of the time it is not the cable adjustment but some dirt or crap which is stopping the hairspring tripping back the cam on the rachet. When this happens just put your finger under the cam on the park brake side while you have...
