• 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.

    Removing panel to install new gauges

    I would like to go with the digital information for fuel and temp, but can't seem to get the panel out far enough to remove the existing wiring. Is there some secret I don't know about? (I know I spelled gauges wrong)

    Phone mount

    I purchased a Tech Mount for the center of the handlebars. The comments on Amazon said just buy a 1" ball with 1/4 20 threads and replace the one on the techmount. Well that seems to be erroneous information, as the techmount 17mm ball has a specific mount, not a threaded hole. Anyone have...
