• 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.

    Heated Gear

    So, I'm probably gonna break down and finally invest in some heated gear. I'm thinking about jacket liner and pants liner to begin with. I was looking at the First Gear stuff--I like the idea of a remote controller---less wires to mess with. What's your experience and advice? I don't know...

    Speed Limit in Reverse?

    So about the only time I've ever used reverse on my 2012 RT (SM5) is to back it out of the garage. The other day however, I had to back it up an incline at a service station. The engine started to "gallop" as I was slipping the clutch and I had a very hard time backing up. It got me wondering...

    Credit Card Hacked!

    I've heard of this happening--but never happened to me. Got a call 2 nights ago from the fraud division of my credit card company wanting to know if I recently purchased gas in Georgia. GEORGIA???? I've never even been there. Seems like someone got my credit card number and charged close to...

    Another Sway Bar fan...

    Well, what more can I say that hasn't already been said? I've been following the posts on Ron's new sway bar for the RT's all winter long. At first I was like "really? It makes that much of a difference?" Finally I decided to bite the bullet and order one. Holy moly--it arrived here in two...

    Torque settings on new oil drain plugs?

    So, I recently changed the OEM oil drain plugs for the magnetic type with the regular hex bolt heads. My question is this--does the OEM torque values still hold for these plugs? i think they might be steel plugs screwing into aluminum. I don't want to strip anything out so I need advice from...

    New iPhone 5- I LOVE IT!

    So i just got a new iPhone 5. Before this I was using a Droid. I LOVE THIS PHONE!! I can't believe all the things it can do. It's clear to me that the phone is much smarter than I am as I'm still discovering the cool things I can do with it. So I just added the "Escort" radar detector...

    Looking for a "Winter Beater"

    So I'm thinking I'd like to get a decent Dual Sport for the colder/winter riding months. Not that I'd ride in a snow storm, but for those days when the roads are rideable. I don't want to take any of my "good" bikes out on the salty wet roads. I'm thinking about something like a Kawasaki KLR...

    Fog Light Switch

    So, I just installed OEM fog lights on my 2012 RT AC. Here's my question: The on/off switch lights up a bright blue all the time--doesn't matter if the fog lights are on or off. Is that normal? Just wondering if the same is true with machines that had the fog lights installed at the...

    Horn Doesn't Work

    So I took my 2012 RT apart to install fog lights and 12V plug in the frunk. Everything went well as I took my time and label every connection that need to come apart with colored tape. When I was finished, I just hung the frunk and check out to make sure everything worked and IT DID! :yes...

    Outdoor temp gage

    My outdoor air temp reading is usually 5-8 degrees warmer that actual temp. Does the sensor need to be moved so it's not picking up engine heat? Is it just my RT or do others have the same issue? Thanks

    Foglight fuse

    So I just got my fog light kit (thanks Toledo Honda!) for my 2012 RT A/C. I was looking at the parts bag before I "tear into" the project and noticed there's no fuse in the bag. Is the fuse already installed in the machine or do I have to go get one to put into the fuse panel? thanks

    Remove Front Speaker Grills?

    Well, I think I might have blown one of my front speakers (yea--blasting "Rolling Stones" too loud!! LOL). In any case, can anyone tell me how to remove the front speaker grills? Do they just "pop" off or do I need to remove body parts to get them off? Thanks

    Funny thing on the Spyder

    I'm still a relatively new Spyder rider--only 1 month-so I'm still getting used to the attention it gets. More than when I ride my Hayabusa!:roflblack: In any case-I'm riding into the WalMart plaza this afternoon to pick up a couple of items to wash and wax my truck, and as I round the corner...
