• 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.

    Ryding at night - lower headlights?

    I've been ryding after dark recently a bit and I've had a terrible time with people flashing me thinking my birghts are on. Some have been rude enough to do it right when they are on top of me. I've flashed back anyone who flashes me letting them know that the norm is pretty high as is, but I...

    Anyone else with an RS 2011 have issues with a "squeaking" noise when you take off in first and cruise in 2nd? I thought it was my wheels when I was turning from a stop, but it's doing it on straight-aways now too... No clue what it is and plan on taking it by the shop, but curious if anyone...

    Reflector Mod - Highly personalized!

    Well, I read on the forums that these reflective sheets were really good in jvicker's post and some PMs with him (her, not sure :-)) So, I decided to get them, but didn't want to just add them as a blank square (I am never known to do things "basically"). As you know from my name, my nickname...

    Issues with Can-Am 1" Handlebar Raisers

    Anyone have an issue with the rubber piece that is included that covers up your wiring between the handlebars and the black plastic on the body coming "un-snapped"? I rode tonight for about an hour and it came undone 3 times. I know each time I slipped it back into place and ensured the snap...

    Chip

    I'm a bit confused about this one... My RS is one week old (yesterday) and today, upon cleaning her, I noticed a chip on the trunk lid in the front. It's small, but the odd thing is it looks like the paint was chipped off, and it's rusting. I thought it was like fiberglass or something? I'm...
