• 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.

    Belt tension - How much should it change between oil changes?

    I rode an Aprilla Atlantic for a while. The belt was supposed to last about 100,000 miles. There was also a time limit on the belt. I believe it was about 10 years. The rubber in the belt would dry out and crack. The belt would then be brittle and could break, leaving you stranded.

    I just bought a pair of tires from tire rack here in tucson. There was no problem getting them installed by them due to the rims being j rims. The manager stated there would not be a problem as long as they were j type rims. He did tell me they would not do the rear due to the amount of work,

    998cc Bike won't start

    I would check the spark If there is a weak spark or no spark then work back from there. It could be bad spark plug wires or the coil. The new battery make sure it has a full charge they will drain if set on cement or from sitting on the store shelves as you don't know how long it sat.

The old helmet gets rotated as a spare, in case I take a passenger or am on a longer ride. I also change out the visor every 8 months to 1 year depending...

    How can I make my 2015 f3s more visible from the back?

    Not on your bike but your helmet. I think it's motorcycle Dave that has a helmet device that lights up when you apply your brakes. The advantage is now your brake lights are at about eye level for a person driving a cage.
