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.

Well, it depends on your definition of "Cruiser". Me personally would not be able to ride an F3 because of the sitting position, therefore I ride an RT. If "Cruising" means relaxing on a nice day long trip, then the RT is perfect for me. I can set the "cruise" and go. I'm sure the same can be said about the sitting position of the RT for some as well. It really depends on how you like to be seated in the seat. Do you want your feet out in front of you with more body weight on your tailbone, OR, do you want to be more upright on the seat with your feet under you with your body weight a little more upright and centered. We all have our preferences, and different definition of "Cruiser". Both bikes will make a great cruiser, it just depends on your riding style and position of comfort.

As stated above, it depends on what you consider a cruiser. For me, yes, feet forward (like on my M109) is cruising position, and that is only found in the F3 series or Ryker. But some would consider a Harley Ultra Classic a cruiser (I consider it a tourer). In that case, the feet are more under you in a seated, but relaxed position. That is more like the RT. The new RT (2020 and above) definitely gives you more movement forward of the feet, without having to add highway bars or something. Only way to tell, is to sit on or ride one.

Having owned a few "cruiser" type motorcycles, I tend to go with that definition.
Thinking "cruiser" vs. "tourer," as in HD vs. Goldwing, you tend to sit "in" a cruiser bike, and "on" a touring bike. The cruiser fits a bit more "part of the bike." The tourer makes you feel like you are on a comfortable couch.
F3 configurations are all cruiser and RT's give you that GW feel.
