• 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.

    Anyone use cyclecare products?

    I just had my spyder “tattooed” as my wife calls it. (Custom hand painted pinstripes and a mural) They recommend using a product called cyclecare. It’s a two stage product, base #3 is put down once or twice a year and then use a #33 finish whenever I want to clean afterwards. It’s pretty...

    Can someone look up how tight (torque value) the front 2 spindle (m10/55mm) bolts should be on the front suspension? I am replacing both the top and bottom on left side. The dealer didn’t replace them after my deer accident and one is stripped, so it needs replaced. For $7 it’s a no brainer. He...

    Any heard or know if Ron is having a poker run/mini rally like last year? Is there a date? Nothing posted on the new 2024 lamonster posting on home page regarding this.

    I really like the Lamonster 3-in-1 brake/run and flasher lights for the older version RT's. (I believe it was ShowChrome but can’t remember) These are apparently the new lights for the new version 20+ series. I’m sure Lamonster will be carrying them too, but thought I’d share...

    Dad is in Arizona and not a tech guy, as in computers, so he asked me to throw this out there.
