• 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.

new 2011 blue rts se5

traded in 2009 red rs se5. it is smooth,quiet and quick. rode about 100 miles today and like it a lot. only complaint, gas gage goes down very quickley.
 
that's the way it is

Get used to it... Both the smooth ride and the rapidly falling gas gauge.. Some folks will tell you the mileage goes up after 10000 miles.. that's not true.. Just have fun and remember to stop at gas stations often..
 
It's like stealing from Peter to pay Paul. The ride is a lot more comfortable, and the gas mileage is a little less. 5300 miles on the RT and still can't get 30mpg and I am a snail rider, just ask Lamont!

*Cough* traded our RT-S for a 2011 RS-S and my mileage DROPPED! :dontknow::gaah: I only know this because I could go 9 days between fill-ups and now I go 6-7 in the same trip. *wipes noise*

I bet it has nothing to do with the "Fun" factor I am expressing :roflblack::ohyea::yes::bowdown::firstplace:

:roflblack: Next thing we know, you'll be complaining about increased pain from bending your right wrist. Methinks you like that sporty new ride. :D
 
:clap::2thumbs::clap: Congrats on your new RT-S. Got mine late last August and haven't looked back :spyder: I agree with the mileage issue, though. I average about 27 mpg but since I started keeping track of things (11 fill-ups ago) through www.fuelly.com, I have gotten a couple of tanks with 32.9 and 33.9 mpg. Not the mileage I expected but it's still the best touring machine I've ever owned (and I've gone through three Wings and an Ultra Classic). Best of luck , my friend, and, above all, have fun tourin'!!:yes::yes::yes:

I will say this.. I had an small emergency maneuver I had to do today... One of the double length buses tried to push me off the road. He knew I was there... So did the cop behind me and the other drivers...

Anyway... We are starting off from a green light in separate lanes... Cop behind me... I go nice and slow and the bus starts to pull up about half way (Me being now in the middle of this bus) in first gear around 4k RPM... and the bus decides he wants my lane with no blinker... I gassed it hard for the first time and the rear tire lit up... Hit second gear to kill the burn and get traction... FAIL... Only to need third and the tire just kept going and hitting the Nanny :roflblack:... A few love taps to the brakes while staying in third and off I went... Pulled in front of the bus (Safe distance) and proceeded to my office singing words no good Christian wants anyone else to hear. Cop never even looked my way. Just drove on as if he saw nothing :yes::bowdown:

Cars do not kill people... Stupid drivers do...:chill:

COOL driving!! Amen to the stupid drivers.
BTW- the level of a person's Christianity is what he says when he drops a 50lb Bible on his bare foot. I'm just sayin....:roflblack:
