• 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.

    I have an 09 GS and the best throttle lot is your wrist. The engine wont hold speed or rpm in the higher gears. On long trips I use a cramp buster but you still are making fine adjustments for up or down hills.

    998cc Changing the shift shaft.

    If it were me I take a small file and carefully file away the distorted spline. looks like only the outer spline is damaged removing the distorted splines will leave you with plenty of splines to have the shift lever working. cheaper than pulling and tearing down engine.

    brakes locked

    Check rear wheel if locked up when fronts are locked I would suspect the master cylinder not allowing fluid to return. The fluid probability has never been changed. New fluid and bleeding might help. Bleeding will be tough if master cylinder is gummed up.
