• 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.

Estimated time for floorboard/highway peg install?

Specifically Rivco, but I'll take a rough estimate for ANY board/peg install.

FYI, I feel awful-- my man card should be taken away-- but I recently tried to install this stuff on my own, and even with a jack and jackstands I just couldn't get enough comfortable clearance to work underneath my Spyder in my driveway (God, how I want a garage and a bike lift one day...).

Since time is money (and frustration... and bruised fingers...), it's worth it for me to have a dealer install this stuff, but I'd like to have an idea of about how long this should take since I'm going to have it done "while I wait" and labor in these parts approaches $100 an hour.

So, any estimates?

(Oh, in addition to the boards & pegs, I'm getting two Powerlets installed in the dash... I'll be ready for winter before summer's even over :thumbup:).

If every thing goes well, The Rivco boards should only take 1 to 1.5 hours to install.
 
Original Seal Floorboards took 30 minutes and I had no need for jacks, etc. No need for highway pegs. Didn't even bruise or skin a finger. :D I highly recommend them! :thumbup:
 
Hard for me to say for sure how long it took to install my ISCI brackets and boards because I was also doing a lot of other stuff at the same time.

I would estimate that if that was the only project that I was doing and worked specifically on that 1-1.5 hours is about right.
 
Thanks all, makes me feel better! :thumbup:

RE: Seal floorboards, I already bought the Rivco boards and pegs, I've had them sitting on my dining room floor for a month now (much to my GF's happiness ;)).
 
I installed the ESI pegs in about 1 1/2 hours. I took my time and they came out great. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow.
