• 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.

    saddlebag wires?

    While trying to figure out the saddlebag latch, i pried out the button insert on the top of the left saddlebag. There is a plug with 4 wires attached to the button insert. I checked the operator manual and could not find a reference. What are these for? thank you ba

    left saddlebag latch

    This is a little puzzling, To latch the left saddlebag, I normally have to place my leg against it and slightly lean into it. Then it will latch. slamming shut doesn't work. I have gotten used to this, but . . . If the bike is hot, like sitting in a parking lot hot, it will not latch. I have...

    Removing enamel paint from glass

    Well, I failed. Acetone and lacquer thinner did absolutely nothing. They didn’t even change the surface texture at all, it remain just as shiny. I could not get a razor blade underneath the coating. Scraping with a blade did not scratch it or remove any material. I thought it was enamel because...

    Stripped out handlebar bolt :(

    i did this project a couple weeks ago. here are the tools i used. i started with the impact driver, hitting a few times. then turned it out with a breaker bar. look at your Allen key socket. some have a chamfer on the end which limits the contact surface area. i think a more square end has...

    instrument cluster removal questions

    Thank you all for the help and suggestions. it is time to let the dealer fix it. i give up. i took off the bezel. it came off easier than i thought it would. i was able to look behind the gauges without removing them or unplugging anything. i was hoping for a dedicated USB cable that needed to...

    instrument cluster removal questions

    i would like to take a look behind the instrument cluster on my '19 F3T. since my BRP connect does not recognize that there is a phone plugged into it, i am ruling out that the USB cable is or is not plugged into the cluster. i just want to remove it far enough to look behind where it should...

    Tachform, Tail Rack and Brake Rod installs

    We had a really nice day in Minnesota and the last day before we shelter in place at midnight. I have had a few upgrades I planned this winter and thought I would do a few before I went out for a ride. I’m not sure if I can go out for just a ride during our quarantine, but I am assuming I can...
