• 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.

If so can you let me know how you did it, was there a plug & play light set available, and if you perhaps have any plans available ($$), The $650+ cost of a "real" one is a bit pricey .. unless of...

    Remap necessary after cat delete? ... what about ...

    Is a remap needed after a cat delete on a 2021 RTL? What about if I move on from that and swap the muffler too, will I need it then? Looking for a bit more sound, and thinking of starting with the cat delete. We will see after that. Always open for comments and recommendations. Thanks as always

    Any info on adjusting rear trunk/top case latch on '20+ RTL?

    Yes! Thank you... well if anyone else is looking, watch this one. About halfway through, when he is going to adjust his S2S trunk a message flashes on the screen telling you to watch their vlog 2054 for an easy way to adjust it! That’s the real one to watch. Sweet, thank you so much.
