• 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.

Sunday project complete, installed a set of 2012 RT shocks on my wife's 2009 GS-SM5. Wife will give me a ride report later this week.

Thanks to Trickie Dick.

The black coil springs make it look great. I installed 2012 RT shocks on my 2011 RS-S. I had them up to setting #5 and it made the suspension to stiff. I'm down to setting #3 for overall riding, setting #4 for full load traveling and tight turning mountain riding. Didn't try setting #1 and setting #2 was like my old RS-S shocks. I also have a BajaRon anti-sway bar and that keep the body roll down.
