• 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.

Sad story

just read this on the internet. sad ain't the word for it. nothing can describe this poor guys misfortune.:pray::pray: go out to his family and friends!
 
I pick up on this:

"Just three miles after leaving the dealership, Strang was along side a tractor trailer, and for unknown reasons struck the side of the rig and was thrown underneath, and was killed instantly."

Maybe he should not have gone on the street with a new "unknown ride" until knowing more about how to ride it?
Just saying.....

Imagine being poor all your life and winning the lottery only to die in a plane crash on your first trip to somewhere you had always wanted to go.... It happens!

Sorry to hear about this news honestly! It's sad when stuff like this happens :(
But I can relate! Wife would not let me have a motorcycle until the Spyder came out!

Sad news..!!

I remember a young guy who brought me his Honda inline four 750 to work on. He babied it but when the
V-4 Intercepter came out he had to have it. He scratched up all he could borrowed what he could and traded his bike in and got his dream bike. After servicing it and trying to explain the differences in handling he flew out of the dealership. Hour later tow truck pulled in with a clump..lost it on the freeway a mile from the shop. It happens I truly feel for his wife and family..:pray::pray:
