• 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.

Fake Motorcycle News

I received my AMA magazine today and they have an article about fake motorcycle news. I think the main thing they wanted to get to was a former AMA employee claiming that the AMA will go broke in July. They use about 2/3 of the article debunking that.

But they also warned that some online articles claimed the AMA helped develop regulations with the US DOT to bar minors from riding as passengers on motorcycles or that 11 states plan to implement a curfew for motorcyclists between 11 pm and 6 am. Both stories are fabricated by fake news websites, but get shared by people who believe them. It turns out it's a scam to gain digital information so marketers can solicit business and generate advertising revenue.

So beware alarming motorcycle news you come across by email or "news" sites.
 
Rats, the internet is not true, now the news is not true, what next, is SL going to have fake stuff on it????? :yikes::yikes::yikes::yikes:

A sign of the times for sure. Ronald Reagan still said it best: "Trust, but verify." :bowdown::bowdown:

And yes, BS articles, so weird they get you to check them out. When you do--you get bombarded by BS advertising. :gaah::gaah:

Elio was back in the news last week. All BS advertising and nothing that we did not already know.
