• 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.

    Dead Bike

    Yep! I am kind of hoping that the HG Switch shorted and fried the battery and that's the end of it. I was a wee bit concerned about the other quirky mishaps though, hopefully once I get a responsive battery in circuit that'll iron them out. Ordering a new battery today (dealers wants £120.00...

    Due to a water shortage in Ireland, Dublin swimming baths have announced they are closing lanes 7 and 8. Paddy thought his new girlfriend might be the one; but after looking through her knickers drawer and finding a nurse's outfit, a French maids outfit, and a police woman's uniform, he finally...

    Tow hitch

    @Ga BK, I got the impression that the one I found comes with it's own fitting kit and doesn't use the existing (chocolate) fender mount. I really like Littlebadwolf's offering best though. I might chase that one up. :clap::thumbup:

    Tow hitch

    On the OP I contacted them and it'll tow 550lbs (gross). But I wasn't able to find a parts list. That being said I do like Hawkii's offering though. :thumbup:

    Front wheel in the air

    When I am booting along, I shift my arse over to the inside too, puts more weight on the inside and keeps the bike well planted.

    Gas Milage with the RS

    so if I was to get 36MPG (imp) I would be getting 30.3 MPG (US) But realistically, it is exactly the same, because in both instances I am getting 8 Miles Per Litre in both instances. *Gad I had to take my socks off for the final part of that calculation....*

    Gas Milage with the RS

    No, if the gallon is bigger, that means more miles per. but I think the difference is minor.

    Paddy & Mick go to London to donate sperm. It was a disaster! Paddy missed the tube & Mick came on the bus!! A Muslim was sitting next to Paddy on a plane... Paddy ordered a whiskey. The stewardess asked the Muslim if he'd like a drink. He replied in disgust 'I'd rather be raped by a dozen...

    25 REASONS I OWE MY MOTHER 1. My mother taught me TO APPRECIATE A JOB WELL DONE. 'If you're going to kill each other, do it outside. I just finished cleaning.' 2. My mother taught me RELIGION. 'You'd better pray that will come out of the carpet.' 3. My mother taught me about TIME TRAVEL. 'If...

    Hand guards on RS?

    I scored a pair of these, but they clunked into the mirrors when I put in a big turn, looking at risers as well now... BUGGER!

    Hmmmm Just the other day when I was riding home, I got this mahooosive juddering through the handlebars, it only lasted a couple of seconds and it wasn't tankslapping oscillations, however it was enough to leave mars bars in my knickers!:shocked: At first I thought it may be road surface but...

    Gas Milage with the RS

    Yeah, but I think the UK gallon is slightly bigger than the US one for some reason. UK Gallon is 4.46 litres.

    New Tire

    I know this is an old thread but, I didn't see the point in creating a new one to ask the same questions. 2 things, what is 'Ride On' as alluded to in the above post? AND.. has anyone any experience with toyo tyres on the Spyder, I can't seem to get the Kumho ones (which I really fancied) over...

    30 give or take a couple. Two up around 40, that's because I rarely go over 60mph with my precious cargo (Anne) aboard.
