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.
My '21 F3 Ltd is Pulling to the Right - any ideas on what to check next?

Double check your tire pressure. Use a good gauge like a digital or dial gauge (no push out the top type that is pencil shaped) and keep the tires within 1/2 pound pressure side to side. Do this with COLD tires that haven't been driven (like first thing in the morning) or several hours after a ryde.

Thanks. I had the alignment and tire pressure rechecked. But I haven't looked at the brake calipers. Looking at the service manual, it seems to indicate that there are two sensors that could be an issue: the "Steering Angle Sensor"; and also some sort of a "YAW Rate Sensor". These are beyond my knowledge base.
Were they OEM Kendas?? Or something else?

Interesting, but if they were OEM Kenda's, not surprising. I feel sorry for those who believe the myth that the engineers know what is best for a vehicle, which I don't necessarily disagree with. But the myth is that the engineers have the final say in the final product, and in what the manual and the manufacturer recommends. That's where the idea falls apart.
I always point to the Columbia Space Shuttle as the ultimate example of this myth. It's the bean-counters who have the final say. And I imagine, with the engineers quite unhappy about the corner cutting for profit.
Thus, we end up with products like the Kenda tires which BRP has had to threaten dealerships in order to keep selling a well documented, inferior product to us.

Actually way worse than OEMs. They were Vee Rubber VTR-350 Arachnid Touring. Never, never use these!!!Were they OEM Kendas?? Or something else?
They're OEM Kenda clones... They run what is effectively the same lightly made poorly quality controlled tire carcass, only with a (slightly) different tread! So they have ALL of the problems, issues, and concerns that the OEM Kendas have, plus a few of their own!
I'm sorry you had to learn that the hard way...
