• 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.

slippery seat?

I did buy the premium seat for my Ryker. I tend to slip around the seat for some reason, almost falling off a few times. Is there something I can put on the seat to grab my pants and prevent me from falling off?
 
Mine is only slippery after a cage pulls out on me. Honestly, the comfort seat is flatter with less bucket than the Rally seat. It gives me the ability to move around when cornering hard s0 I can load up the outside peg. I like it better.
 
Go to Lowe's and get a package of the peel and stick, non-slip stair tread tape and stick it across the back of your jeans.

Good question. Going to watch this one because I don't have a good answer. The thread does open itself to having some fun with you. :roflblack:
 
It is true that there is a bit of weight redistribution when cornering. Not like a two wheeler where you lean with the bike so you don't feel it. It probably just takes a bit getting used to it. Maybe tighten the knees a bit on a corner and lean your body into the turn? I was sliding when I first got on it, but now I guess I am just used to it and do not notice it. My wife holds onto me tight so I guess I gain two benefits from having a passenger; no sliding and her holding onto me.
 
How many miles do you have on the seat? It could have been cleaned/treated with something that has made it rather slippery and will get better as you "scuff" it up a bit.
 
Stop putting the armor all on the thing!!:ohyea: Mine gets a little greasy when I use it on mine!!! :roflblack: tight knee's, leather pants, whips and chains, Oh boy!!!:shemademe_smilie:
 
Blu tack works... and leaves no residue behind :).

On a more serious tone... I assume this happens when you corner?
Do you lean in the corner... or you just keep straight? You should lean in...
