• 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.

998 V-Twin Oil Analysis results

Since I bought my Used '13 RTL and planned on putting on (what for me) would be significant mileage
(we're not talking Ann and Joe's mileage) I wanted to test the oil I had most access to
(Castrol Power1 4T 5W-40 Synthetic Motorcycle Oil) over a few oil changes to make sure I'm protecting
my engine well enough.
So after ordering filter change kits from BajaRon, oil from Amazon, I tested starting with BRP's Oil,
then with the Castrol over a period of 4 changes. My final oil analysis after a recent 4800 mile trip,
I'm satisfied that the Castrol will be effective. For the curious here's the recent results,
Before
Before 4800 mile 10 day trip - Before 4800 mile 10 day trip
and After
After 4800 mile 10 day trip - After 4800 mile 10 day trip

If you have questions about what the numbers mean, here is an explanation:
