• 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.

I will also say I have bought several bikes at...

    Don't have any real specs but after 46 years on two wheels, I feel much safer on three, if you get hit you don't have any more protection than a two wheeler. But run into lose gravel (tar and chips) three is much better, also rain not as much of a problem as if on two. The best thing look ahead...
