• 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.

    Jump start pack

    I bought one of the X-10 antigravity batteries, too. Everyone talks about using them for jumpstarts, which is great. But the real useful thing to me is I can use them to recharge my SENA blue tooth headsets while I eat lunch on long trips. (The power outlets in the truck are turned off when the...

    Another non-BRP trailer woe

    No problems with a Lumina trailer Not all non-BRP trailers are cursed. Just finished a 4000 mile trip with lots of pouring rain using a Lumina trailer. No problems, no leaks, pulled easy. I did caulk the seams when I first got it and added additional weather stripping to the opening but other...

    homecoming lodging

    I just booked there too for 1-4 June. Same $159 Canadian as you got. Said they didn't know anything about the lower price. The woman on the phone said she had about 40 rooms booked against our event already.

    FOBO Gripe

    Senior citizen looks down his nose again Just because I want to use a handy tool doesn't mean that I also should just shrug about any unnecessary data collection it performs. I try to set all apps and sites to their most restrictive mode. It's just good computer hygiene in this age of identity...

    FOBO Gripe

    I've installed a set of FOBO tire sensors on m Spyder and trailer. They work great and it sure is easy to check my tire pressure now. My gripe is with with their iPhone app. Why in the world does it think it needs location services turned on to monitor my tires!?! I don't want to be blasting...

    Ride-On and FOBO

    Is Ride-On tire sealant compatible with using a tire pressure sensing FOBO system? Or will gum up the FOBO?

    Can Am mesh jackets

    Better to wear rain gear over top Two other advantages to wearing a rain jacket over the mesh jacket. One, your jacket doesn't get soaked. So when the rain stops and you remove the waterproof layer, you still have a dry jacket to wear. Two, a mesh jacket holds a lot of nice warm air next to...

    Iphone 6 or Zumo for Gps and tunes

    Amen to that! A whole lotta folks dislike bikers because too many think their right to make noise trumps everyone else's right to peace and quiet. Those who spout the " loud pipes save lives" nonsense discount the safety hazard of cagers who disrespect all bikers because of the noisy few.

    Iphone 6 or Zumo for Gps and tunes

    Navigon does not require cell coverage I use the Navigon app on my iPhone. For a reasonable price I bought the North America maps and downloaded them while on wifi. Now I don't need a cell signal as Navigon can use the built in GPS. I generally like the audio directions it gives so I don't have...

    Reminder to carry contact information cards

    I recommend RoadID Checkout RoadID. When I ride, I often have my wallet in the trunk. So if I get thrown off, I could be parted from my cell phone and wallet info. And I know from personal experience, when stressed out and in pain, even well known phone numbers are impossible for me to get...

    Baker Built Air Wings (review)

    Which color panel? Pam, which color wings did you use? Are those the dark or the smoke? I've been thinking about getting some but can't decide on the color. I like your choice. Could you please post a picture with more of a side view of the Spyder since we have similar paint schemes. Thanks!

    Easy fix for messed up lug bolts

    I bought a trailer and had to assemble it. Pretty easy except the lug bolts on the hubs were buggered up on a couple and all of them looked like they had gotten painted with the hub. I was able to get an inexpensive bolt re-threader from Amazon. Worked great to clean out the threads. I really...
