• 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.

    Works Performance Shocks on RTS after 200mi

    I've put over 200 miles on the new works performance shocks and am very happy with them.:2thumbs: Before the shocks, I tended to avoid freeways and 70+mph drives. I skittered around in my lane every time I hit a minor bump or caught a gust of wind (to the point of fighting to stay in my lane...

    Awaiting Works Performane Shocks after Freeway Commute

    A few days ago I spoke with Tom Edison at Works Performance and asked them to make me a pair of replacement shocks for the front of my RTS. They are now working on them, and I should hopefully have them in a couple of weeks. Before I even purchased the RTS, I made up my mind that I would...

    RTS SE5 Arrived and in the garage

    Registered one more for black. They still are crowded/bumper to bumper. After I get some practice, I'm hoping that car pool lanes and judicious route planning will keep things reasonably safe. HOV lanes should save me over an hour a day of drive time. I think I'm pretty close to your neck...

    RTS SE5 Arrived and in the garage

    I just thought I'd say thanks again to everyone for answering my questions and for all the helpful posts on this site. I took the plunge and there is now a 2010 RTS SE5 in my garage in Timeless Black. My wife and I went out and loaded up on safety gear, got our insurance and went for a few...

    Riding Brake triggering Limp Mode?

    Thanks for all the responses. It's good to know that the failure was likely to have been caused by me rather than the vehicle. Looks like I may be able to proceed with the purchase after all. Happy New Year!

    Riding Brake triggering Limp Mode?

    Well, I finally decided to take the plunge and go for a 2010 RTS SE5. I went on another test ride and had a great time...until the last part of the ride. After some highway driving and a short section of slow curves we turned onto a road with a bit of traffic and frequent stoplights. While...

    Buy 2010 RTS Now or Wait for 2011 in January?

    Thanks for comments and suggestions. I'm currently leaning heavily towards a 2010 + customizations given how significant the difference in cost is. Being new to open bike-like vehicles, I'll spend a fair amount just getting my safety gear and a few must have accessories. The thought of...

    RTAC vs RTS: Benefits of Air Ride

    Thanks everyone for the responses. I'm leaning towards the RTS after your comments. Thanks in particular to TicketBait for the detailed review and sharing your experience with So Cal freeways. I wouldn't be surprised if we don't pass each other on a freeway one of these days. I've been...

    Buy 2010 RTS Now or Wait for 2011 in January?

    Regarding the modified demo unit Sorry, folks. I think I gave the wrong impression by leaving out a few details for brevity. I'm not considering buying that specific vehicle and the dealer wasn't trying to sell it to me. They didn't have an RTS SE5 in stock for test rides. Thus, they said...

    RTAC vs RTS: Benefits of Air Ride

    I am considering purchasing a new Spyder touring model, yet am not sure which one will offer the best cost/benefit for my needs. What do you experts and enthusiasts think? Primary Intended Use: 3+ times per week, most of the year: 230lb solo rider 30-50miles each way on Southern CA freeways...
