• 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.

    Front End Alignment

    Agreed. However, the statements I made are taken from the shop manual. Also, my Spyder no longer pulls to the left. So, handling is improved. and the uneven tire wear is also gone.

    Front End Alignment

    1600 miles later. I am happy I took the time to do this. The tire wear on the front tires is much better. I don't seem to have any uneven wear on the inside of the tires.

    Numb right hand while driving

    I don't have numbness in my hands, but I do have arthritis. The fix I found is ergonomic bicycle grips. The best way to explain them is they have built in cramp busters. They work great, I have not had any issues with my hands since installing them. You may want to try something simular. Here...

    Oil Leak Saga

    It busted below the top threads. There is no way I can get a punch in there to tap it out. The only way I am going to get this one out is to drill first, then use an easy out. The trick will be getting the drill in there, with the minimal amout of clearance it is going to be quite difficult.

    Oil Leak Saga

    Kinda hard to do. It was last in the shop 3 months ago for its last 12,000 mile service. Now I have an addtional 10,000 miles. So my service will be 2,000 miles early. Although, I think BRP should issue a service buliten to have these "Distance Screws" replaced every third or forth 12,000...
