Hey everyone!

After months of coding, tweaking, and fighting my way through Google's testing requirements, I am incredibly hyped to announce that my app, Apex Wizard, is finally officially available on Android!
(For the iPhone users out there: iOS is already live and fully up and running!).

A huge thank you to everyone in this community who participated in the beta testing. Your feedback was invaluable.

What is it?

It’s basically a digital race engineer in your pocket. It is built to completely replace the traditional paper notebooks in the pit lane, providing a clean, organized way to track tire pressures, suspension clicks, and setup data without the chaos of flying or greasy paper.

What it actually does:

The Troubleshooter (Diagnosis):
Tell the app what the bike is doing (e.g., "Runs wide on exit" or "Rear unstable under braking"), and it suggests suspension adjustments to fix it.

Fuel Manager:
Stop carrying dead weight. Calculate exactly how much fuel to add for a specific session length.

Setup Logging:
Track your high/low-speed compression, rebound, preload, geometry, and hot vs. cold tire pressures.
Data Analytics: Compare different setups side-by-side to see which one actually gave you the best lap times.

And much more…

The Catch?

There is none. I’m a solo developer and a track day addict.
I built this to solve a massive problem for track riders and want to give back to the community.

The app is 100% free, no subscriptions, no annoying ads.

You can find all the info and the direct App Store & Play Store download links here:

If you guys have any feature requests or feedback, please let me know in the comments. I'm actively developing this and want to make it the best tool possible for us riders.

See you on the track! 🏍️💨

Yesterday I went to test Honda RS, when I reached there they said I will have for an hour for test vehicle to arrive at big wing. So, why not try out vstrom. They had a Suzuki Showroom right in front. So I first took my test ride in VStrom. My both feets barely reached I am 175cm. I ride on passion plus so this was a new experience. In beginning i did find handling little difficult but the bike starts running it feels amazing. I was completely thrilled by the experience. I took nearly a 20 min test ride. I did find gears little on tighter side (Not sure if thats a problem)

After that i tried Honda RS. I was not happy by customer experience. They treated me as I am going to steal their bike or cause damage. I took my test ride. My Legs easily reached. Handling it really easy. It also felt great. Gears were smooth.

Hence I am in a dilemma which to choose. I did find difficulty in handling vstrom but I am sure it must be because I am not used to such vehicle. Please users V-Strom and Honda RS share your opinion.

Looking for a piece of advice/troubleshoot.

Bought a Suzuki gn250 with a busted stator. I bought a replacement through amotopart with a gasket and regulator included.

Replaced the stator, gasket, regulator but noticed that when I fired the motorcycle up, there is a scraping sound coming from the generator side.

I drained the oil, opened everything up and looked for any shavings but couldn't find anything except for some old fragments of the previous stator. I used a stencil to trace a new gasket on 0.8 mm gasket paper, replaced everything while making sure that the idle gear is placed well.

I then turned over the engine using a socket and could not hear that same scraping sound. Good, I thought, problem solved. I filled her up with oil, turned over the engine but the same scraping sound was back. I used a long screwdriver as a stethoscope and placed it on that centre screw cap and different other places with the noise being most pronounced on that centre screw cap. It sounds like gears rattling, but I can't be sure.

When I pull the clutch, the sound persists.

There are no obvious chuff marks on any part.

I have used loctite on the stator, the bolts are not coming loose.

At my wits end really, might have to take her to a mechanic if I can't figure this out.

I’m not sure if it’s just me but over the past few years I’ve noticed much fewer riders waving - lots of riders seemingly intentionally ignore me.

Someone at my workplace and I were talking about this and he said he doesn’t wave because he doesn’t actively participate in the community, he just rides with his wife. I know another dude that had similar reasoning for why he doesn’t wave, he said it’s just a solo thing for him and he doesn’t want to invite conversation

Has anyone noticed the lack of… community in the community lol I’m not expecting everyone to wave or say hi or anything, but when I’d say 50% of the people near me actively avoid other riders, I wonder what’s going on
