• 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.

Exhaust leak??

At roughly 11000 miles, I started to notice that the engine is quite loud when I started up cold and then as it warms up, it quiets down to its normal lovely cadence. The loud sound is coming from the area behind the engine air intake area which is where the exhaust header is. Where the header hits the exhaust pipe there are couple springs holding the exhaust on to the header. I assume there some sort of a gasket in their. Do you think it needs replacing? Do you think that is what is generating that loud engine sound at the start up and early warm up?
 
There is....

There is a gasket there though I do not know it's composition. Part # 707601033 @ $7.19 from cheapcycleparts.com. Possibly some expansion when hot seals it up a bit better.....:dontknow:
