• 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.

    Anyone mounted a Zumo XT in place of Garmin 660 on older RTL

    Thanks for the suggestions. I ended up taking the mounting bracket apart, unplugging the two connectors, and pulling the wiring harness out of the mounting bracket, Then I pulled the harness back inside the tupperware, and taped it off. That way I can reconnect it all in the future . I'm...

    Anyone mounted a Zumo XT in place of Garmin 660 on older RTL

    Just started undoing the tupperware and trying to follow the 660 wiring harness to remove it. It seems to be buried pretty deep. Does anyone know an easier way to get to it. I would hate to have to cut it. I had hoped to be able put it back on in the future if I sell it.

    Anyone mounted a Zumo XT in place of Garmin 660 on older RTL

    Getting my Zumo XT tomorrow. I'll be doing the same, removing the 660 mount and wiring and mounting the XT in it's place. Can't wait to get the bigger and brighter screen.

    Sena +Mesh reviews

    If anyone is still interested in a used pair of headsets, I have a pair of Uclear Motion Infinity's for sale. They work great and are in excellent condition, with one minor imperfection. While changing my visor, I pushed too hard on the headset and tore the weather proof boot on the top button...

    I know its me but......

    I felt the same way in the beginning. As others have said I felt much better after several thousand miles. One more thing that helped me: I was looking at the road too close to me, trying to maintain my spacing to the road stripe. That made me way too jerky with my steering corrections. I...

    Battery Tender?

    I installed this weather proof power plate from Lamonster: http://www.lamonstergarage.com/search.php?search_query=Power%20plate&section=product I wired it straight to the battery. It gives me 5v USB or 12v cigarette outlet to power a phone, gps, radar detector, or whatever. When not...

    Turn signal indicator

    I added the full mirror turn signals, but I also added a single 12v amber led ribbon light on each side, that showed up even better. I just connected each one to the turn signal lights on each side. I ran the wires out from behind and above the background instrument panel. I don’t remember...

    Texas Spyders in the hills

    Hi Keith, glad to hear you’ll be back down this way. As I’m sure you have seen, the rally will be in Kerrville this year, not Boerne. I don’t know about camping areas, but I’m sure someone will reply. Look forward to seeing you again.

    LED USA Flag

    I got mine from *******. They have two sizes, 3x5, and 4x6. They are very bright and look great. Mine came from a company that is no longer a sponsor of this site, and the name was hidden by the site. I think several other sponsors carry them as well. Mine is the 4x6”.

    Baker Air Ride System for RT's

    I installed one a few years ago on my 2012 RT. I really liked it. It was straight forward to install, and had good instructions. I have a 2016 RTL now, and I miss the pressure gage. With that you could tell at a glance how hard or soft the suspension was. The compressor did go out after...
