• 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.

    High pitch sound

    If it’s a high pitch whistle like, it’s venting from the gas tank, to check that open the tank fill and it will stop. Heat from the engine as I put mine in the garage causes the tank to get fairly warm.

    Ethanol Fuel

    If gas costs .95 cents to make why did someone post about the 110 race gas cost 7 bucks? You do realize that ethanol is 110 octane, if you want to compare straight across. Also a straight ethanol engine will put out more hp than a gas one, and I mean an engine built to run on ethanol not a gas...

As far as the video I can get a piece of aluminum from my junk pile that hasn’t been anywhere near fuel and it will look all pitted and corroded. In the...

    Up date on k&n

    This is a good site that tells the facts about air filters including K&N, this is why I won’t buy anything that has a K&N air filter on it when I’m looking at it, https://www.nicoclub.com/archives/kn-vs-oem-filter.html It’s quite a bit of reading but is a real informative site.

    93 octane non ethanol gas?

    There are so many mistakes in that article it would take all day to get thru them, one that jumps out is the price of corn in 2012 because. The old food or fuel adage, do you know that the farmer gets 5 cents for the corn in a box of corn flakes, if the farmer doubled his price the cereal would...

    93 octane non ethanol gas?

    Sorry but the petroleum industry is heavily subsidized and it takes a lot of water to produce a gallon of gas, the ethanol industry is self subsidized by the farmers. The biggest problem is people don’t realize how many gallons of ethanol an acre of corn can make, and the byproduct is added to...

    2016 spyder rt parking brake locking

    Can you check to make sure the cable is moving freely, if it’s grimy and drags it could be pulling hard enough that it can’t pull on it or retract. Motorcycle shops have a cable lubber kit for motorcycle cables that could help.

    What size tool for an RT Oil filter?
