• 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.

    Will the Ryker price hurt resale of 998 models?

I know there are a ton of differences...

    Another Reason Why Women Live Longer Then Men

    I'm glad the Bison didn't gore the dope. If it had, they would probably catch and kill the animal. They should ban the jerk from the National Park System. For this stupidity and his clothes.

    Tire question again...sorry in advance

    I get the feeling that lots of folks put different brands of tires on the front and the rear. Given the opportunity, does anyone see why the same brand can't be used on front and rear? I am changing the front hubs, and my rear is about worn out, so I could use 3 tires. Was thinking Altimax...
