Traded 2010 RTS Spyder for a used Road Smith Goldwing trike couple weeks ago. We have lost all faith in our Spyder do to to much shop time and also myself spending to much work time and mods to make...
Mango: Your post is almost exact what I was going to post. We also have decided for same reasons to trade off our Spyder for a used Road Smith Goldwing trike. Used trike only has 20,000 miles on it...
Just as Bob Said.
I must really be getting old. In my last post I for got to report that the problem with power steering was that The DPS failed and had to be replaced. That should make my last post make more sense,...
Picked up bike from dealer and all is well, rides good. About $1100. repair RPM1 warranty covered it. Dealer stated since recall several years back has not had to replace any DPS. Will be trading...
Steering effort was a little harder at low speeds and did not hold a straight very well at higher speeds. Seemed to be more play in steering also. Pc screen flashing check DPS.
I have the RPM I warranty and have had two exspensive repairs done. No deductable no problem at all and no hold ups.
Dealer has informed me that my RPM 1 Warranty will cover repair. Seems that the power steering unit has failed and a new DPS unit is on order. And before any one ask yes this bike had DPS recall for...
Thank you parts number worked. Ordered one from dealer.
Bike is at the dealer who seems to think might just be a sensor.
I thought some time back a thought I saw that some one had posted the parts no. for a gage blank on this sight.I hope some one can come up with that number again. local dealer could not find it in...
Would any one happen to know the parts no for the gage blanks that are used to fill in the holes when removing a gage? Local dealer could not find anything on this.
Pulled and re-seated any fuse that I thought would be possible to have anything to do with steering also pulled main fuses thinking maybe it might re-set sensors or pc. Battery is on charger now and...
Checked on battery connection and the were not all that tight. WOW! thats it but no still no power steering. This thing is driving me nuts. Still searching.
I did not Check connection at battery but it shows 12.74 volts.
We hit something in the road other day with the left front wheel that gave a good thump. Like wheel ran over something. No noise other then a thump. Went a few hundred feet and lost power steering...
I have been getting what appears to be little peaces of black rubber or something in the clutch fluid. Reseach done on this board sounds like I will have to rebuild or replace some of the clutch...
I think I would wait to see if and when a stiffer after market sway bar can be bought. Best mod I did to my 2010 was after market sway bar,later added 2012 front coil overs(springs and shock unit)....
I also have RPM warranty and had a $400. water pump shaft, seals replaced with no problem. If I decide on selling off bike to buy a 2013 or 14 bike will still have warranty for next buyer. Myself I...
I have an RPM warranty, Seems okay to me had one major repair which was a water pump shaft,seals. done to repair oil leak. I think the bill was some where around $450. When you purchase bike new and...

I added an Evo sway bar on my 2010 RTS just month after I bought it. Had an after market bar not been avaibale I am sure bike would have been sold real fast. Ron,s bar I think is even better....
Thank you for great info Ron. I will be checking on this as soon as possible.
The difference between the EVO bar and my bar for the RT is significant in 2 ways. The EVO bar accomplishes a modest...
If I were to replace my current Spyder which has the Evo bar on it.First thing I would do is order a new one from Ron. A better sway bar then stock is the best mod I did to my 2010RTS. I also have a...
Will do George. The meeting at Sunoco was really Sandy's idea. Just thought I should get it posted.

I thought that the 2013 models no longer have adjustable front shocks. I do not know about the rears.
