• 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.

    Why should I consider upgrading the shocks? What should I expect if I do?

    Already had the sway bar on my 2019 RTL and added the Elka front shocks. The biggest difference I noticed was less dive during extremely hard braking. Before that, I had added Ron's adjustable collars on the front shocks, and that did decrease the bottoming out.

    Do you have Water Spots on the Engine finish?

    New rider with GPS Mount, Seating, Lighting, & accessory questions?

    :welcome: For forward lighting, Lamonster has a nice set that mounts to the lower air deflectors on each side. Another version mounts to the front fender bracket and turn with steering input. Both will increase the forward lighting tremendously. You already have LED headlights that are not...

    MESH Lots of MESH You want a nice comfortable fit. Zippers that can allow even more air in on arms,wrist and body. And a removable inner liner that can be used in rain or when you run into that unexpected temperature drop.

    Trying to decide if I want to start doing my own oil changes - what should I budget?

    Trying to decide if I want to start doing my own oil changes - what should I budget?

    Lets hit this from another angle. Not knowing how many oil changes have been performed previously, or the total miles driven this may be a possibility. Bubba Joe at the dealership that has been doing the oil changes may have been taking the easy way out. It's common for dealers not to...

    Help with adjusting belt tension & alignment please? Any step-by-step guides?

    Peter, every 2015+ that I have seen has the fixed nut on the left side. Of course they may do it different below the equator since y'all have to live upside down all the time. roflmao

    2020 Stinger Trailer fish-tails while empty - anyone else? Ideas?

    While not a likely cause, do you have a way to measure the toe in? If not you might be able to visually look at the tire tread. Toe out condition might cause this.

    Any pros or cons to running cat bypass with original muffler?

    I wonder if this was what was taking so long to get ACP working?
