• 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.

Is if your the type of person that likes to keep the oil at the top of the dip stick, it is!!
 
I did put oil in, after warming it up and seeing that the oil was at the add oil part of the dipstick. I did not put a large amount in. Checked multiple times during process. Did not take to max line.
 
Looks like over filling the oil tank. Look at your manual for checking oil level. Do not check & fill oil when cold.
 
Oil leaking out of the air boxes was a common problem on all the V twins...Do a search here on the forum...There are several fixes...Bajaron, a sponsor here had one of the better fixes...He may sell it in his store??? larryd
