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 have a 2018 RTL and the bars are totally different from the current 2020 models. The new ones have a bar somewhat similar to a regular round motorcycle bar, but with bolt on ends. The previous version of the RT and RTL all had a contraption that was very much specific to the model (aluminum casting with bolt on ends). I had to buy the very expensive Tri-Axis bars to get my reach right. The new ones should be much cheaper and simpler to get the reach corrected.
If you're asking if the 2010-2019 RT's can use the F3 handlebars the answer is no. If you're asking if the 2020 RT can use the handlebars from the F3 then the answer appears to be yes. I checked the F3 handlebar - Position A part number against the 2020 RT Position A part number and they are the same.
Given enough time and money, anything's possible. The 2020 RT handlebar mounting system is like a traditional 2 wheeled motorcycle. The 2010-2019 handlebar mounting system is VERY integrated into the bike meaning NOTHING else fits. If you figure out a way to make the 2020/F3 bars fit on the prior years RT (or if you find a way to add spacers to the stock system), let me know.
