• 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.

    Spewing gas!

    Acknowledging Other Riders

    I, like many here have always done the "two fingers down" to acknowledge the other riders. I also use the same salute to any and all law enforcement to acknowledge them as well........until last year. Apparently a very grumpy sheriff thought for some reason that "wave" was me giving him the...

    Spewing gas!

    Today I got a reply from BRP.....it was the standard " we have opened a case and sent it to your dealer" The gas smell is just as strong as before.....I was hoping it would be better. It can't be normal to smell gas fumes strong at highway speeds.....its nauseating and I'm sure unhealthy. Im as...

The gas smell is still there, just maybe not as strong......and the gas cap came off with no problems. :clap: Lol.....I was scared to death to take that thing off! I don't know if this will fix the...

    Spewing gas!

    Ok.....the mobile mechanic came and I had him bypass that Evaporative canister, like the rest of y'all have done. Cheap enough......cost me 60 bucks plus the few parts. The canister is still on the bike, but he did bypass it for me. I ran it for a short while, went to the store and back. It was...

    Spewing gas!

    Hmmm.....I may look into that. Being female I'm a little nervous to tear into my machine......but once I hear what the dealer wants, I'm motivated! Lol. Dealer charges 250. For oil changes, so I do my own. Was nervous about it tho. this forum is a wealth of info!
