• 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.

"Parking" Brake - Normal delay ?

Many brands

New member
When I stop the bike, its in First, or Nuteral. I press on the Parking Brake switch - and it often take, like 15/20 seconds to come on. (Seems like a long time when all you want is to stop and get off the bike.) Then the reverse is true, when I turn on the key, press the switch, it often takes another 15/20 sec. to turn off. The question is ---- IS this normal??? Or should it be immediate.
Thanks.

No.
 
It sounds like the cable that activates the mechanism is out of adjustment.

Ours take about 5 seconds for on/off.
 
Immediate regardless of 1st or Neutral.
