• 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.

Heat in the "cockpit"

The RV Vent Kit came into Pitbull Powersports this morning so I we will be riding up there to get it tomorrow. Don't have an opening in Service until 6/7 and we will have left the area so going to have to either install myself or find another dealer along our travels to install for me.

But, we did go out riding with my newly purchased heat gun. It was 86 degrees and cloudy. Heat right under the seat, next to the oil dip stick registered 135 degrees. This is the heat she feels coming up through the intersection of the seat and the bodywork.

The only part of the kit install you will need cutting tools for is to enlarge the existing vent hole. Some people don't even do this. I'd say go ahead and install the kit yourself, leaving the cutting to some future date if you feel you want even more air flow. Otherwise, you won't need any special tools to install this and you will see a benefit from it. Basic panel removal tool (T-30), screwdriver and drill to make the new holes in the panel for the scoop itself.

Great idea. Thanks Pete

BTW, heat registered right in the crotch area of the seat was 102

I think this is about the third time I have suggested this:
A small strip of stick on weather strip applied at that "intersection" will stop about 100% of the air flow coming up there.
Plug the gap and no air flow.
 
HOT CROTCH

102 F :gaah:....... the only thing that would have an issue with this Temp ............would be an " Ice Cube ".......... seriously - you do realize the normal human body temp is 98 F +/- .....so 102F is only 4 degree's warmer .....................and I also checked my glove box temps a few times and it never went above 98 F ............. Mike :thumbup:

More strange assertions from our self-appointed expert on everything.

Are you really saying that if you have 98 F air blowing on YOU that it does not feel HOT ??

SERIOUSLY ??

I make FAR to much sense for you to comprehend ....so why are torturing your-self :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead: .................and of Rant .........Love Mike :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:...............

Mike, let it go. It doesn't matter that he disagrees with you.
 
Vent kit

Picked up the vent kit this morning. Pitbull was closed but a sales guy was there delivering a Sea Doo so he let us in and found the part. The box was open but appears everything is in there. No instructions. Should there be instructions?

Yes. Give me your email in a PM and I'll send you the PDF.

LET IT GO

Pete I am fine with Dis-agreeing on something / anything, this is part of human discourse ............. However it's the RUDE Personal attacks He feels are necessary in almost every comment He has made to me ............. awhile back He told everyone on this Forum that I was an " ASS " and He got away with it .... So now I'm sure He feels emboldened to say ANYTHING He wants ..... and the Administrator ( who I reported this to - TWICE ) apparently agree's with Him .....:banghead::banghead::banghead: ....................go figure .................Mike :thumbup:

In this case, as many others, I don't really KNOW if I agree with him or not.
Because he finds a need to try and make his posts "cute" but instead they just come out obtuse and confusing.

But then......when he goes off on a tirade against me......the verbiage is absolutely 100% clear.....except for the part where he makes a feeble attempt to explain the original post.

Do YOU understand what that first post about body temperature means ??

Yeah I get that he insulted you. Just ignore him.

Looks like that should be pretty easy to figure out. :2thumbs:

P.S. I thought you had me on your "ignore" list.

That's just Mike. He doesn't mean anything by it. No need to get upset.
 
IGNORE LIST

Looks like that should be pretty easy to figure out. :2thumbs:

P.S. I thought you had me on your "ignore" list.
Yes you are ..... my IGNORE list means ...under NO CIRCUMSTANCES will I EVER Help or give you any assistance or answers to ANY problems you are having...... However, if I saw you lying by the side of the road ( after - say an accident ) I would call the police ......:dontknow: :2excited:................ Mike :thumbup:
 
THAT'S JUST Mike

WRONG - actually there are quite a few people on this Forum who agree with my assessment of " Easy Rider " and the way He comports Himself here ....... It's very interesting how some people are willing to give Him a Pass ....kind of re-minds me of Mrs Cl *nton & Mr C*mey , & *lapper & *rennan people who have been PROVEN to be Liars and got away with it ....... end of Rant :gaah::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:...........Mike :thumbup:

Yeah but, what are you two guys accomplishing by ranting at each other? It's not even the Off Topic forum.

Kinda unrelated to the thread topic don't ya think? (Unless you're dealing with a different kind of 'heat in the cockpit' :roflblack:)
