• 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.

    What's the difference between a CVT and an eCVT? Please Explain??

    I'm looking for my next car and have some questions about a CVT v an eCVT. I'm probably going to end up with a sporty 4dr sedan (think Hyundai Elantra N or something similar). I do NOT want a manual. I can drive them just fine but I don't want to mess w/shifting my own gears (unless it's via...

    Anyone got More info on details in this pic, please?

    I d/l'ed this pic from the forum but didn't pay attention to who it belongs to. If you can identify it, could I have more info on the windscreen and the trunk/saddlebag set up, please? Thank you, sir or ma'am. MONK

    Kickstart on older GS/ST? :)

    While I was at the dealer today, I was looking around at some of the bikes sitting waiting for service. I saw this GS/ST (?). Just out of curiousity, what is the lever my arrow points to? Not in the right place for a shifter or foot peg and while I didn't get on my hands and knees to look under...

    Front end vibration

    Hey, all. I recently developed a front end vibration, worse around 55-70mph but present at all speeds. I have almost brand new Q5s on the front. I noticed that lost one (or more) of the right wheel weights so I removed the rest of them and added 2oz of tire beads. Didn't make any difference...

    Well, this was a first.....

    I've been riding for 40+ years. Most of my riding has been in Indiana where I've had to dodge more deer than I can recall. Today, I was riding up 18 about 20 miles from home, following a Harley going about 10 under the speed limit. (I had no place to pass, it was a nice day and I didn't mind...

    Ragtop suggestions

    I might be in the market for a ragtop. I want something sporty but doesn't have to be supercar class. It has to corner well and when I want to pass, well...I want to pass. I'd prefer an automatic but wouldn't turn down a stick. I'd like something relatively modern but doubt I'll get many/any of...

    ScanGauge 2 mounting bracket

    I just leased a 2021 Honda HRV to replace my CR-V. Less room, fewer amenities, much smaller but much cheaper. Not bad for a grocery getter but not much else. In addition to the severe lack of power, it doesn't have many gauges. I want to know there's a problem before there's a problem so I...

    Non-motorcycle front dashcam recommendations?

    I just leased a new car. It's not fancy but I've seen how most drive and want a little extra "insurance" so I'm looking for a dashcam. I only want/need a front camera. I want something hardwired with good enough resolution that it can pick out an offender. It doesn't need to be cinema quality...

    Looking for GE window A/C part

    Model: AHS05LXQ1 I bought (2) of these used a couple of years ago. My tenant doesn't need either one so they've been sitting in my garden shed ever since. I took them out the other day to make sure they both still work. One works great. The other one now has a defective power switch. I'll bet...

    Shorty windscreen? Is there such a thing?

    I'm looking for a factory type cut down windscreen. I don't want to cut down my own windscreen. I'm just not that talented. Can Am website doesn't show anything but I could swear someone mentioned one. I know about the aftermarket.

    Just bitchin'

    Well, this day has gone downhill fast. Got new tires on the front of the RT last weekend and was planning to test them out this weekend. As of Monday, tomorrow was supposed to be in the upper 70s and sunny all day. Mid week, Saturdays forecast was rain showers starting late afternoon. I think...

    Looking for bright shiny metallic neon green/orange "strips"

    As I mentioned in another post, I put up one of those Shed-In-A-Boxes to use as a garage a few months ago (with the city Planning Directors blessing). Now, the same city Planning Directors says it's out of code and I have to remove it or get a daily $200 fine. (They sent the registered letter...

    Interesting way to lift the front of the bike

    I swapped out the Kendas for Q5s today on my 2021 RT. I told the shop I wanted it lifted by the ends of the A arms and I wanted some wood between the jacks and the bike so nothing would get scratched. The shop didn't have any wood but they had a ton of shop rags. That works. However, they...

    Which 2021 RT Limited cover?

    Due to the city's lack of ethics, I may end up having to take down my "garage" (Shed-In-A-Box) I just put up to house the RT. I have a full cover that doesn't fit particularly well and since I added a Shad top case, have thought about buying a cover that fits the Limited (with the OEM top case)...

    2020+ RT REAR jacking point?

    I want to clean the rear wheel on my 2021 RT. Not sure where a good jacking point is. I just need to get the rear wheel/tire off the ground enough to be able to spin the wheel. (Yes. I know I can do this w/o jacking up the rear wheel but I'm too old and fat to lay on the ground, clean what I...

    Saddlebag opens on highway/jacket lost

    Pissed me off. I was riding Friday and stopped for lunch at a rest area. I checked (and double checked) to ensure both saddlebags were securely closed before taking off again. Twenty miles later, I see that nasty warning on the dash telling me a saddlebag was open. Sure enough, I look in my...

    Tire date code comfirmation

    I got my new Q5s delivered this morning. I was looking for the date code and want to make sure I'm reading this correctly. The number I see is: K52B 3021. No idea what the K52B is but if I'm reading this correctly, the tire was manufactured in March (30) of 2021 (21)? Does that sound right? If...

    Phone mount options

    I have a Lamonster Phone Phang now and it must be losing it's springiness. I almost lost my brand new $1400 phone today going around a curve. Had it not been plugged in, it would have been shattered along the road somewhere. I'm less than happy. Don't get me wrong, I love Lamonster Garage and...

    2021 RT bars too close

    So, I'm a fat dude w/a fat arse which I know brings me a bit closer to the bars than someone who was more normal. I've installed pretty much all handlebars available and ended up with the Helibars. The Helibars are the best by far but I still feel I'm a couple inches closer to the grips than I'm...

    Capital letters don't carry over in quotes

    When I quote someone and add my text, it always seems to post lower case letters instead of caps. For example, in a recent thread (something about a new RT S2S delivered w/o speakers), I quoted ARtraveler and added "FTFY :)" (Fixed That For You). I posted that in caps and it posted in lower case...
