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.

Read post #22. This is very helpful.
Also, on my 2012 RT, I installed a BajaRon sway bar. Made the ride nicer.

We bought the RT
Drove to Atlanta Friday night and test drove the RT Saturday
My wife was happy with it so after some negotiating I drove it 280 miles home back to Columbia.
It took a bit to get used to 3 wheels after 40 years of 2 wheels but not too bad.
The suggestions & advise supplied by you guys was very helpful.
The prior owner had bought the bike there so I was able to get service records.
My wife is so excited she wants to drive it to a wedding in Charleston next week.
She will be out riding today in between showers
I'm happy to have a riding partner.
We will post some pictures later.

Breaks
You have received some good advise but let me add one more, from my 18wheeler days. I down shift until I get to first gear. It saves the break pads waring early. Of course you may have to jump on them, but red lights and stop signs it will help MHO.:yes::yes::thumbup::2thumbs:
