• 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.

    Flat tire advise

    I added the "Baker Built" air compressor kit to my base 2010 RT so I have a compressor I can move about 15 feet from the Spyder. I have used it a couple times for others, but and hopefully never had to use it for myself. I do have a tire patch kit with me. Oldmanzues

    There was a post on here a long time ago, a female wanted to ride a motorcycle. Her boyfriend or husband(forget which demanded she ride a HD or nothing. She was sacred to death.

    A lot of dealers, HD and Honda will not work on older bikes for two reasons, one nobody there is old enought to know how and the other is a person brings a older bike in and when they find out how it costs, they walk off and leave the bike. Then the dealer is stuck storing forever. Problem has...
