• 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.

    Got pulled over today!

    Cops n Spyders I had the same thing happen to me as I rode through the Sierra Mtns. in CA. I was riding with a couple of 2-wheelers when they pulled ahead of me and went out of sight. We were on one of those twisted roads in the mountains so I waited until the road straightened out a bit and...

    Lamonster Comes Through(again)

    Oil pressure Putting a hose on it would work but remember the oil is around 75psi and is hot. I don't know if we'd be asking for more trouble. That's why we opted for the electrical sending unit in the first place. Oh well, live and learn.

    Lamonster Comes Through(again)

    Warning-oil pressure Gage. OK, I'm back on the road again.:thumbup: Problem was that the Oil Pressure Sending unit hangs off of the T-Fitting.

    Lamonster Comes Through(again)

    I was in Maggie Valley when I noticed my ISCI handbrake wasn't releasing after braking. It being Sunday I couldn't go to a dealer for help. I did not have my tools with me. I gave Lamont a call and he said I could use his garage and tools to ferret out the cause. Some of you may remember that...

    Bonneville 2011

    More speed Any time I have mentioned more HP I have also said that a gear change is also necessary. If you REDUCE the size of the rear sprocket you can increase RPMs of the rear tire without exceeding redline. That's my take on the subject.

    Resolved..Battery Situation Over the past week I was installing my Power Commander V and I finally discovered why my Battery appeared to have gone bad:banghead:.

    Bonneville 2011

    More speed You do NOT need a turbocharger:thumbup:. My mechanic claims that you can get an increase of 40 Horse Power thru the use of Nitrous Oxide injection. It seems to me that 40 more horses with a smaller rear sprocket would get you up to 130 mph. You would have to get your Power Commander...

    Trailer In 2007 I took an after-market trailer attached to my Harley Sportster on an 11,500 mile trip to Alaska. By the end of the trip I was holding the trailer together with bungees:gaah:. The trailer gave me nothing but trouble and I swore completely off trailers:(. But over the years I...

    Help..No Reverse

    Reverse Actuator Well, my Reverse Actuator went out again:gaah: and this after they "fixed" it at Cowtown in Cuba, MO.
