• 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.

I know the st handle bar swap has been done on the 13 rs

Has anyone done the rt:dontknow:

Am going to do one or the other for my winter project:yes:
 
I don't know of anyone that has done the RS-RT handlebar swap. I'm not sure of the height difference between ST-RT, but if it's much I think you'll run into wire lenght issues.
 
I installed Kawasaki KX 250 High Rise Motorcycle Bars on my RS, It gives a nice rise and pull back. I am 6'2" and it really improved to saddle position.

The cross bar give a lot more options for mounting accessories .
 
Anybody put 'ape hangers" on an RT? :roflblack: That woud sure test cable length issues. Not that I would really put on ape hangers, but I would be interested in how regular bike handlebars are connected to the top of the Spyder Steering mechanism, especially on an RT. Some sort of adapter being available would really open options on bar selection.
