• 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.

2008 GS SM5 w tall windshield.jpg

My 2008 GS SM5 had the tall windshield when I bought it 4 years ago. It keeps the wind from using my broad shoulders as a sail when I'm running at freeway speeds. Couldn't even think of riding without it in front of me. It doesn't "buffet" my ride at all.

I had a GIVII tall screen on mine with normal ( not raised bars ) and it was terrible - changed to low sport one and the buffeting completely gone - even at 130kph on motorway. If the bars have been changed to raised ones like the RT then maybe the tall ones are ok as your riding position is further back
