    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

    You guys, meaning the Australians have a huge following for Kats. And that is very, very good. One of our mebers here Dink, is also in Aus, somewhere :) You may want to contact him about your Kats questions. Not trying to deter you from here by any means, just thought a "local" may be easier.

    What about Bridgestone Sport-Touring Tires?

    So you're not a real aggresive rider, which is ok. You may be able to get by with a "cheaper" tire. If you want something sporty and reasonable, try the Dunlop GT 501. Look around, you can find them at a decent price.
