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.

For your 09 GS/RS, this series of videos might help out with a few things for you, although the oil change video will not cover your HCM filter. Rear brake is video #10. And take note, compress the brake cylinder with the C-clamp before you remove the old pads.

Unless you have signs of physical damage, or just want to upgrade, it is not necessary to replace the rotor when doing a standard brake job. And of course, to replace your rear rotor, the wheel needs to come off.

After that, removing the rotor is self explanatory.

2013+ models use the Brembo brake system. Completely different animal. All he needs is a C-Clamp to compress the caliper pistons.
Rear brake caliper piston not retracting.......
I've tried to compress piston on rear brake of 2008 GS and it will not retract. I put huge press on it with a C clamp and would not move. What am I not doing correctly?

Did you retract the parking brake? Twist the shaft that the parking brake sector goes on counter clockwise.
