• 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.

    Front pulley change - Wow, what a job!

    Wow, what a job. Hardest part is probably removing the lower belt guard. Why didn't they use captive nuts! Removing the pulley nut was ...difficult. I tried using long leverage bars with heat, no joy. Using a jack under the pry bar (if you can imagine it), No joy. Finally used the engine running...

    HowTo: Removing Front Drive Sprocket (that has significant wear)

    I check my sprocket on my F3T fairly often and have seen no rust. My mate has just had a bit of a disaster with his front sprocket, same model, so I decided to remove mine to look at it closer. If I have the sprocket off, may just as well replace it, I think it will be an investment. New one...

    Well, it was a thread which had 9 pics showing replacement of front pulley. I didn't actually pin it, I 'thanked' it. I thought it was a 'how to' thread

    New FT3 for $400!

    Just fitted the cat converter delete pipe. I can hardly believe the difference. Free revving, especially in the lower gears, seems like lots of extra power, much better ride. Like having a new Ft3 for just $400 (ish) Baz
