• 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.

    How to deal with flat tire

    I had a screw in my rear tire earlier this summer, just got new tire from dealer about a month before. Called them, and they said I needed a new tire, they can't fix motorcycle tires. I called tire places, and no one would fix it. I plugged it, and it's got 3000 miles on it, still going good as...

    Mirror

    I had mirror off, and was putting it back on, and broke the top plastic catch. Not the ones with the wire, but the top one that slides on. I called parts guy, and he said I needed whole new mirror assembly. I said no way, it's a little clip held on with 2 screws. He then said he couldn't figure...

    Noise

    Chupaca, I believe you hit the nail on the head. I gotta thinking, and I never heard it until after I took about 6 panels off to look at something. Something's gotta be vibrating from that. Time ta do some detective work, this could be fun ta find. Thanks

    Noise

    I have a 2011 RTM5, here the last few days, it seems like I hear a noise when I accelerate in first- third, then it quits. I have to really get on it to hear it too. If I just normally go through the gears, I don't hear it. It sounds like sorta a speedometer cable on an old car a little bit. If...

    Clutch reservoir seal

    I have a 2011 RT M5, it's starting to loose fluid out of the reservoir, and old fluid has flakes of rubber in it, and looks dirty. I decided from reading on here, that I need to change fluid and 3 O rings. I've found part# for the o rings, but I also decided I needed to change the reservoir...

    Burning oil

    I have a 2011 RT. For the last coupla years, it's been using about a qt of oil between oil changes. I've had all the fairing off, and can't see any place it's leaking. It doesn't smoke, I just have to add a little oil every now and then. Is this common for the 2 cylinders ? It runs great, no...

    Fair trade price

    I was at dealer looking at 2017 RT's, and ask salesman about how much my 2011 Manuel shift was worth on a trade in. It's got 14000 miles. He said I couldn't go over $6000. It isn't worth anymore than that. I told him that sounded pretty low to me. What do you guys think ? Thanks

    Tire pressure

    I was checking the front tire pressure, as I had a slight shimmy, and everything seemed ok. I got another tire gauge, and pressure was 5 lbs off. I then got a third gauge, that I thought was probably the best one of the 3. Got 15 lbs in it, and rode 50 miles and all seemed ok. I then got to...
