• 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.

    Ryker backrest

    All my riding gear has body armor in the back ... i have no issues leaning against my Linq 21 top case ... the same applies with the passenger comfort seat fitted. Everybody has different riding ergonomics, what works for one may not work for another.

    I have one on my Ryker 900 ace .... i also got the LED light option. It isn't cheap but if you are running down the road and run into a tire gator, either is replacing your front end. its a easy install with minimum tools, i got it from Slingmods.

That could be as...
