• 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.

    Going Black... my DIY dipped wheels and handlebars

    Thank you, I just taped them off a bit. Cut some of the thin clear plastic drop cloth and draped it over the windscreen and tank area and stuff. Any Plastidip that got on parts that I didn't want it on I just peeled it off. Well.... it's not going to compare to powder coating thats for sure...

    Canisterectomy NO MORE SPUTTERING!!!

    I'll take your word for it. It didn't make much sense to me either way since my understanding from what i have read is that the purge valve is pretty much only on during start up. I really didn't and still don't understand how bypassing that canister could affect how my RS runs but bypassing the...

    Going Black... my DIY dipped wheels and handlebars

When spraying the wheels just make sure that you spray a 3-4 coats a few inches onto the tire YES actually spray half of the tire right along with the wheel go ahead and coat that bad boy real good. Wait 10 minutes between...

    Going Black... my DIY dipped wheels and handlebars

    Super easy, and cheap. The trick is to make sure you get 3-4 good coats on it. The first one being a light coat only about 50% coverage just to set up a base for the following coats. You can pick up Plastidip spray at Home Depot, Lowes, Walmart. They all sell Black some also sell matte white but...

    Going Black... my DIY dipped wheels and handlebars

    Thought I would post a few pics of my fresh dipped wheels and handle bars. The silver wheels and handlebars just didn't suit me and I thought looked odd and took away from the sportiness of my RS Spyder so after much reading and watching Youtube videos I went for it and Dipped my wheels...
