• 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.

    Rear Tire - What is the Best Option

    Sorry, but I don't agree. The Kumho is way superior to the Kenda on water. And the 3 of us agree on that. We, my son in law and I, have been riding in a downpour at 100+km/h (62mph) for over an hour, me with my Kumho, and him with his Proxie 4 without any slipping or sliding. That would not be...

    TWISTIES

    Agree Highway pegs are not designed to be standing on. They are just a foot rest. And one will be more stable and better positioned on the driver pegs for negotiating the twistties. Not a good advise. Richard
