• 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.

    Front end vibration

    I put balance beads in my new Q5s when I installed them. The front end slowly developed bad vibration, and I could see the tires shaking at freeway speeds. I had a trusted tire shop remove the beads and balance with weights. Didn't take very much weight, and it's smooth as glass now.

    Will rider backrest help with pain between shoulder blades?

    I would try the BRP Comfort Seat. Some good deals in the forum classifieds.

    Looking for waterproof riding (over) bibs/pants recommendations

    Check out KLIM Forecast Jacket and pants. Light weight and easy to pack. Not cheap, but likely the last rain gear you'll ever buy. Unless you change sizes:)

    RLS Triple Threat - Fantastic sound behind, but ear-splittingly loud for ryder?

    I put the RLS cat delete and Crusher muffler on my 2019 RTL, and couldn't drive it because it was too loud. Took the cat delete off, and put the cat back on. The sound is great now! I don't think the stock cat is as restrictive as the stock muffler, and the combination runs really well.

    Keeping it clean on a dirt road

    Also, I use the smaller Dash Duster version. It works better on our smaller machines.

    Keeping it clean on a dirt road

    I use a California Car Duster and wipe the bugs off with a wet micro fiber towel turned and rinsed frequently. Keep the car duster shook out, and don't rub your paint hard. Works great.

    Easy Trailer Question

    Depending on the deck height of the trailer, you will most likely need a longer ramp.

    Cat delete - RLS exhaust

    Yes, we've had the same experience. Stock muffler, RLS cat delete, Monster stg 1. Smell the fumes at times around town. Wondering if the RLS substrate baffle would clean up the exhaust at the expense of performance? Haven't tried it yet, because I'm not too keen on drilling a mounting hole in...

    Balancing Vredestein Quatrac 5

    I'm putting these tires on the front end of my Spyder. They have no balancing dots on the sidewalls, but there is a blue dot inside on the tread portion. Can anyone here tell me if this dot is for balancing? Thanks!
