• 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.

    998cc Changing the shift shaft.

    I don't trust that method as I don't see any axial support, circlip or other device that will take up the force except the shifter pawl against the back of the clutch drum which broke for another member here last year.

    Oil change by suctioning

    Your saying that you are draining the sump of the engine as well as the oil tank? If that is so, sucking out the oil won't do a complete job but my guess would be that it is sufficient.

    Oil change by suctioning

    Once the oil has been sucked out of the tank you can clean the magnetic drain plug with little chance of spillage.

    Oil change by suctioning

    Please explain??? The oil tank contents could be easily sucked out. Beats crawling around and trying the open drain plugs in hidden locations and having oil run all over the place.

    998cc 2012 RT limited

    I have installed the vents and the instructions call for the enlargement of the existing vent holes. The final area is approx. 3x the original. Much more flow. I installed the scoops on the bike and traced the inside contours with a felt marker. After that I was committed, white bike, black...

    998cc Changing the shift shaft.

    Well winter is coming to an end and soon it will be time to fix that shifter problem on the Spyder. I have read the shop manual and it says to remove the clutch cover and the clutch drum. It fails to mention removal of the clutch housing. I have researched this and the clutch cover is no big...

    It is curious that the bolt will bend when the shock eye is lifted but doesn't bend when the shock eye presses down on the bolt.
