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.

To the brake issue - is it fixed? On my Spyder (2008GS) it was the VSS not having been bled - probably ever. I found a easy but messy way to bleed it. Pop off the right side panel, shine a flashlight in front of the engine pointed down. You'll see the brake lines going into a block mounted on the center frame. Use a 1/4" ratchet with extensions with a 1/2" socket and you can drop down and get it. The messy part is can't catch the fluid. Then repeat the pump and hold procedure. Viola!
Bled this bleed screw. Actually got a hose on the bleeder screw after removing more tupperware (I had previously bled all the brakes and topped off the resevoirs).
Then followed the instructions to cancel the warning here
Voila! NO MORE BRAKE FAILURE WARNING!!
Thanks, Steven and everyone else. This forum ROCKS, especially since my nearest dealer is an ocean away!:2thumbs:
