• 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.

St-ltd won't upshift

I noticed today that when I am ready to ride, my 2014 ST-ltd won't upshift from 1st gear until the cycle warms up a couple of minutes, then it is fine. Is this normal ?

After experimenting a few minutes I realized that as soon as it warms up with 2 bars it is ready to go. I also shift now at 3000 rpm with no problem.
Thanks for everyones help.

While you are down there checking the oil,check the little shifter arm down low on the left side. It is made of (very) soft metal and if it has loosened up the splines may be worn enough to not allow it enough grip in cold oil to actually effect a shift. Just give it a wiggle for your own piece of mind. If loose see if you can tighten the bolt. If you need to replace, it is about $32.00 but easy to do. Index it to the punch mark on the end of the shaft.
