• 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.

RT tensioner

No, i haven't got it figured out quite yet, but getting close. I've been going by the dealers almost everyday for the last 3 weeks taking measurements, pic's, etc. of the RT, because i haven't met anyone close by that will let me dissect their's. The dealer has been very nice to let me come in and lie under their RT with a flashlight, camera, calipers, a bunch of things scattered on the floor for an hour at a time. Luckily it's in a corner where nobody can see me unless they come to look at the spyder, then i quickly pile up everything in a little pile underneath, out of site and walk away until they leave. Sometimes i will start talking with them before the salesman gets there as i can answer more questions than they can. Well, today this older gentleman walks over, climbs in the passenger seat and says he fell last year and now has a steel plate in his hip, can't swing his leg over the 2 wheeler anymore. I explained to him this would be perfect, and a majority of the riders were in their 60's and 70's, he said, well, i'm way past that, I'll be 90 this year, but I'm bringing my wife in tomorrow, she will be driving most of the time. Man, i hope that's me one day! Gotta love it, just thought i'd share.
 
Thanks for the update and thanks for the effort on the RT tensioner. If I were closer to you, you could use mine for all your investigation and research...
 
Hi keep me informed about the RT tensioner and I will get one of you I got two of you last time ( but one did not fit the RT ) so I will get another one when they are available

Hey Rob, sorry it didn't fit, i remember saying the swingarms were the same, but i couldn't say for sure as i hadn't even seen one yet, didn't occur to me they would have a cat shoved in that space. I will be glad to swap it out for you when/if i get the RT figured out.
