• 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.

    A small Safety Mod to our 2022 RTL with a big improvement!

    Update- since installing revised turn signal switch button, I have not once had an issue with it. With the oem button, one had to be dead nuts on center to cancel or would turn on again or turn on the opposite side signal. This revised one hits the sweet spot every time with hundreds of...

    HHC (Hill Hold Control) - what am I doing wrong? Why won't it work?

    My 2020 RTL had it as well as my 2022 F3L Limited. Works on slopes/hill when stopped. It basically let's one to take foot off brake and begin to accelerate before bike begins to roll back. I have found it to work ok.

    Gas strut for trunk on the RT

    A small rubber door stop between the front of lid to seat back rest works great and for $2.98 a pair. On windy days, the oem strut does not always work. This works all the time. Adapt and improvise- military way of addressing situation.

    As one mentioned, with cruise set. acceleration is different. 63 in 6th with two on and accelerate is a bit much for bike and grabbing another lower gear would make a big difference.
