• 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.

Brand new AGM in my Spyder. Bike Hasn’t been out yet since, but it’s been plugged into my tender for a month. I have a Foxwell Battery Analyzer and just for fun, I thought I would test the new battery. I disconnected the harness plug for the tender, hooked up my tester and it’s showing 36.3 volts!! I’m like wtf. So, I disconnected the bike wiring from the battery and tested just the bare battery and it’s 13.9 and passes load testing. Soon as I reconnect it to the bike, it shows 36 volts again. Key off, motor off. Is there some sort of capacitor in the system that’s it’s seeing??

UPDATE: I started the bike and it fired right up. No codes. Only ran it for maybe 30 seconds
and shut it off. Retested battery with bike connected and got 13.6. I have no clue what was going on.
