• 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.

    I’ve read a thread about that cutch basket nut. So did your clutch return to normal after the nut was properly installed? No damage to the clutch itself?

    Clutch won't disengage completely, difficult getting Neutral, clunks into 1st, and creeps - anyone else? What did you do? Fixes?

    I am currently fighting this issue. Found some evidence that a previous owner may have used a non-JASO MA/MA2 engine oil for about 3000 kms. So maybe the clutch was damaged by that. Have done a couple oil flushes with quite a bit of improvement. Clutch master and slave have new fluid and bold...

    Welcome, justmike

    Thanks for that SpyderBOT. I should be picking up my 2016 F3-T this week. In the meantime I’ve been researching everything I can to make the transition from two wheels to three a smooth as possible. It’s been kind of bittersweet after 56 years on two wheels, but I’m finally starting to get...
