• 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.

If your battery is going dead after the bike sits for a few days, and the battery tests good or you believe it is good, the next step is to conduct a Parasitic Current Test. It's not hard to do and doesn't take much time. You'll need a multimeter for this test. If you don't have a multimeter in your toolbox, you should. A best seller on Amazon is only $13.

Most constantly energized devices, such as ECU, regulator; should not exceed about 1 milliamp each.
