• 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.

    Which Mono Seat Cowl will fit my Fit my '21 F3S?

    I have a 2021 F3S and want to get a mono seat cowl. Trying to find a used one so color/year specific is hard to find. Not so much worried about color, but I'm not so versed in what year' bikes are fit which model seat cowl. Is 2020+ a different fitment than the 2015-2019? I see some used...

    Are there any cheaper brake linkage rods out there?

    I took my stock rods and cut out 5 inches out of the center. I then tapped/threaded both end pieces of the rod(it's hollow with a 1/4"ID) to receive a 5/16" threaded rod. Using two lock nuts on the 5/16 threaded rod to keep it from backing out. I can now switch to position 3-5 if I want...

    Where's the best place for Speaker Pod Setup? Any Pics? Amp/speaker details?

    I'm trying to piece together a amp and speaker pods for my 21 F3S. The amp will obviously go into the front trunk, but I'm trying to figure out where to best mount a set of marine speaker pods. This is the kit I think I'm going with...

    Need Windshield advice: Form, Function, & Height?

    Thanks for the picture and comment. I think I'll get the 18". If the height bothers me, I can just cut it down (won't be the first time I've done that to a windshield).

    Need Windshield advice: Form, Function, & Height?

    Going to buy a MadStad windshield for my F3S, but not sure how high I need to go. I'm definitely getting either the 16" or the 18" because I'm not to keen on the looks of a tall windshield. Anyone run the 16" and is it pretty much useless? I'm 5'-10" and don't mind some mild wind to the head...

    Anyone done a DIY Shifting/Brake Rod Adjustment?

    Anyone take an existing brake level rod and cut it in half, thread both ends then use a double ended female coupler to join then? $130 for a Sling mod version. Only asking because of the used F3 I bought is at position 5 and it's way too long for me to ride comfortably so I need to get either...

    Anyone verified Aftermarket Performance Gains?

    I was responding to your comment in order to provide you with my scope of knowledge and experience on the subject(as limited as it might be) in hopes that you would have feedback that could address my question. Your comment did absolutely nothing to answer my original question, not that it isn't...

    Anyone verified Aftermarket Performance Gains?

    It's a 2021 F3-S. And why would I have to drive it to know how much base HP is there, that's well documented from the factory. I do know that given the weight, nannies and HP of this bike it will be an under performer. Every motorcycle I have ever bought I have replaced exhaust, intake and...

    Anyone verified Aftermarket Performance Gains?

    I'm pretty familiar with modern performance modifications. I've owned three late model, extremely fast and heavily modified cars. The ECU management can only take advantage for the most part aftermarket modifications. IE. You just can plug in some new map and expect any decent results. I'm...

    Anyone verified Aftermarket Performance Gains?

    Has anyone verified(dyno?) what type of HP gains can be made with: Exhaust, intake and tune upgrades? Not looking for manufacturer claims as those are always taken with a grain of salt. I know I'm probably in the minority, but I find there's always a need for more power as long as it can be...
