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.

Awesome
So you did it! Did you end up installing it yourself? I thought I was going to make Gettysburg but too much going on yesterday.

I got to ride Doc's at SITS... And yeah, the rear wheel breaks loose at peak boost and that was with all his dirty laundry on his corbins. I did it in 1st through 3rd, and I know Doc said it would do it in 4th too.
It is utterly amazing how fast that turbo takes that Rotax to redline in every gear.
That pipe that comes with the turbo really does sound amazing.
I'd love the turbo, but I keep pinching myself and reminding myself that I bought the Spyder for touring.... But I still want one eventually.:sour:

Altonk's Turbo SE5
Since buying the Spyder, my first bike, I've gotten used to seeing objects get small in my rear view mirrors. I kinda like that.
I was Altonk's latest victim last Saturday.
Last weekend, we met for a ride in Gettysburg. It was a beautiful day and I was next to last, with Altonk bringing up the rear. Since that was the riding order, I became used to having him behind me.
We eventually left G'Burg and entered the interstate, when all of a sudden, I hear this scream, and as I turned, I see this "thing" whizzz by, accompanied by a deathly roar. He became small rather quickly, although the roar remained. I never imagined that a Spyder could get away from me so fast under full throttle.:yikes:
Suffice to say, it was a humbling experience. nojokeWhere do I sign up to get one....
