• 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.

ride like a pro

Yep! It can be done but you have to have some faith in both your abilities and in the machine. Back in 79, MN driving test for motorcycles had circles and figure eights. I had a Kawi 650 with a Vetter fairing. I had a radio mounted and the speakers were to close to the handlebars for the circle and eights. I dropped the bike on my first attempt. FAIL!~ :roflblack::roflblack: I removed the radio and practiced a lot. Got through it the second time. Never tried it on my other bikes though. My new motto, was "give me 40 acres to turn this thing around."
 
The "Ride like a Pro" group is pretty fantastic. I've watched their videos and always wanted to take their class. I was about to then got my first Spyder. And, well, the rest is history.

This is a great class for anyone still riding on two wheels.
 
While I heartily agree that anyone can maneuver a motorcycle at speed: it's when things don't go as planned, that problems can crop up. nojoke
Example: Pulling up to a Stop Sign with a fully loaded dresser, and having your foot slide a bit in some sand on the road... :yikes:

Been there and done that. First gas stop on the new Kawi Vulcan LTD: 2000cc--pulled up to the pump, left foot hit some sand, over I went. Ahhhhhhhh, could someone help me pick this thing up? Pride--now down to zero. :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:
