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.
Need help/instructions for doing a Header wrap on my F3 - anyone?

Did a four wheeler once, using a pre measured & cut to fit kit. Soak it in a 5 gallon bucket of water to reduce the amount of fiber dust & splinters. Doesn’t have to marinate, just a good soak of the strips while attempting another. Keeping them taut with wet hands can be tricky & it does shrink when drying - so it might slip out from a clamp if it's too close to the end. Multiple clamps & then some, then remove extras when it's all done & dry. Adult sized man hands can complicate things in many tight areas where it's hard to keep your grip (Zip ties do in a pinch - just do NOT forget to remove them!) I do suggest wearing a suitable dust mask & protective eyewear with soft foam liners to help keep the dust out of your eyes.

Take your time to get it right. The thinner width will go around bends better. Thicker widths will cover more ground with each wrap. I would not recommend going over 2" wide for the Spyder. I've used 1" & 1.5" with great results as well.
Purchase a high quality material. You only want to do this once.
Overlap 50% with each turn. Then check and re-tighten the clamps at both ends a few times after riding and curing the mateial. If you do it right, you should only need to use one clamp at both ends.
Wrapping your exhaust is a very good idea as it will reduce heat and increase exhaust flow.
