• 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.

    Stopping

    My wife and I were heading home after a day of riding when a deer jumped out of the woods onto the road. I braked hard and my wife's helmet smacked mine pretty hard but luckily she had a good grip on the handrails. However, the car behind us which was not tailgating, came way too close for...

    Tire picture.

    If I paid for an alignment on a vehicle and it didn't go straight, but rather pulled to one side or the other, I would be going straight back to get it adjusted til it did go straight down the road. When we got our Spyder "Squared Away", Joe didn't ask me if my Spyder pulled to the left. I'm...

    Gel inserts

    Motorcycle Dave includes a foam pad that covers the gel pad that will insulate the gel from direct contact with the seat cover and it gives a very smooth and seamless transition from the gel pad that you embed in the foam of the seat. The result is that you can't even tell anything has been...

    Gel inserts

    The temp got to 87° today while we were riding. I wear a modular helmet and a mesh jacket with armor. It was a little warm if you weren't moving but I actually think the old "Toothless Wonder" may have been just a little bit cooler than before, but I really can't say if that is just wishful...

    Gel inserts

    I ordered two gel inserts from Motorcycle Dave last Sunday and got them installed last night. My wife and I rode a little over a hundred miles today and it was TOTALLY PAIN FREE!!!! Before, the pain would start at about 45-65 miles and would REQUIRE stopping for gas, whether we needed it or...

    CPAP thoughts?

    Like others, I owe my life to my CPAP. It's a "love, hate" relationship but one that I stay with faithfully. I love being able to sleep and not calling asleep at the wrong time......like while driving! My new machine uploads data that I can access to see my sleep times, how many apnea...
