• 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.

    Fast Spyder?

    have had mine to 110mph once (just getting away from people who were not driving well and wanted them WAY in the rear view) and once to 111mph (just because it was over 105 degrees and wanted a little wind to dry the sweat more). both times i maintained the speed for less than 1 full minute and...

    Question on pricing.

    avoiding local laws to register has it's own risks. and no one is forcing you. i can understand choosing to avoid higher fees but whenever you ryde on a crappy road remember you helped cause it two different ways ::now getting off of soapbox:: i don't remember my out-the-door price but i...

    Late for Work Again

    LOVE my pin lock shields! they turned my Nolan N43 form the worst for fogging into the best non-fogging helmet (i also use a Shark EvoLine2). both WILL fog when the temp/humidity is just 'right' but the Nolan is now much better at not fogging (or only fogging at the very bottom). also, my...
