• 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.

I can see it taking a bit longer to warm up if it's cold out but it wasn't cold yesterday and it still took 5...

    Are High Idle revs at start up normal?

    My wife's bike (2020 F3) idles at 13-1400 rpm's when you first start it. I've read that the idle should drop to 900. After letting it sit and idle for 5 minutes yesterday the idle dropped to 1000. The bike clunks bad when you put it in gear which I'm attributing to the high idle. Should the...
