• 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.

Anyone experimented with Windshield extensions?

I installed the Laminar Lip on my LTR and also some side deflectors on a show chrome windshield that really reduced the turbulence. I can look over and not have my head shaken off. The side deflectors need to be 4 inches longer and 1 inch wider.

I had a Laminar Lip in my garage from a prior bike, but unfortunately it wouldn't fit my Gustaffson, which has too much curvature.

So I picked up a Puig extender from Amazon (open box at a fraction of the full price). It's small but mighty! If I had a passenger I might need a wider extender but this little gizmo does the job for me, and I can still see over the shield.

I'm with Dave on this one (and a bunch of other things as well).

I have the RT limited, so the windshield is adjustable, but I remember adding a Laminar Lip to my ST1100, and it worked wonders
I could still see over the shield and the wind was pushed over my head.

Except for a bad knee, I miss that bike.

I have bad knees and I am OLD but I sure wish I had never sold my ST1100
