• 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.

    Intalled my new BajaRon sway bar today

    It is a long way to lift the bike up. Whatever way you chose just make sure it is stable. That was my biggest concern so I took my time to make sure it was right and was stable.

    Help with a part

    I talked to the dealer and he said he would take care of it. He is going to order a new panel and wants the old one back.. From now on I will do a walk around and tug in panels... Lesson learned. I am happy that the dealer is going to take care of the problem. Really relieved...

    Can't do the recall myself.. I did call the dealer and VERY nicely explained the problem to the SM. He said he will look into it and call me back by the end of the day. We will see... He did ask what color the bike is...

    SE5 Shift points

    So i took everyone's advice and started running the RT at much higher RPMs. not shifting out of 1st until above 28mph and almost 7000 RPMs. I have also been running the bike at 6000 rpm. I now rarely get out of 2nd gear on the back roads. I am getting LOUSY gas mileage... only about 125...

    Tonight I install my first Farkle!

    The egress and regress is really not impacted by the armrests at all. I was worried about that. I did install a seatbelt for my girlfriend. It gave her a real sense of security. It is nothing more than a canvas strap but it works

    Tonight I install my first Farkle!

    Ok all installed! The right side took me 1.5 hours... The left side took me 15 minutes. The instructions were NOT very good as it skipped a screw you have to remove and it also skipped a screw on the armrest that you have to install..

    Tonight I install my first Farkle!

    I too have read the instructions about 6 times. I think it is going to be a case of just taking my time and not forcing anything. I will take pictures along the way
