• 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.

    I will say this; Doing this this was way less than trying and taking a $8000.00 loss in trade value. Again in should not have to do any of this but I am the type that says "I can fix that.":2thumbs:

    Yes, it was done before the test run by the dealer. I agree, enough noise from the intake I like my bikes nice and quiet. ;)

    I stayed with the stock exhaust so not need for the fuel management. If you mod intake and exhaust you need to have the AF ratio checked and adjust accordingly. the restriction so to speak is the muffler not the CAT to any great extent. but to plainly answer the question; the bike is running great.

    Aftermarket air intakes?

    Aftermarket air intakes?

    Advantages; 1.) clears the the engine area up by opening that area. 2.) Easier to service the motor, I.e. valve adjustments , changing plugs etc.. 3.) Air can move through the engine compartment more freely thus helping push out hot radiant heat. 4.) Easier path for intake air better...

    Black Clutch Fluid on SM5

    I wonder how much the heat is impacting and breaking down the fluid? Maybe you were not over heating like some of us but maybe the heat being contained had more impact than you knew?
