I drove for 600 miles before getting it completely resolved. I was in denial for a 300 hundred miles because it always did it and I figured it was the nature of a belt driven system, but then I...

Thanks, guess I was just hoping.

I'll reread the white paper because somewhere in there they mention why certain oils possessing certain qualites would be bad for starts, but I can't remember off hand as I only read cover to cover...

[QUOTE=Lamonster;304834]Sorry you had trouble with your new RT but glad it wasn't too serious.

This is the panel under the seat to access the battery. It's two screws.

(just out of curiosity...

:clap:Wow 120K!! :congrats: I defer to your veteran experience on this one.

I'm not sure what they did when they took my back wheel off, the GM told me belt adjustment, but the person telling me...

:popcorn:Nice diagostic experiment. :congrats:

:yes:Wow, I was right about something. I'm taking this moment in! I hope you can be more forceful about getting it resolved than I was. I wussed out about pushing the issue 3 times before I got...

This is what I thought all along :agree:

I tried to get the issue resolved at the 600mile service, but they were busy and other than spraying something somewhere don't think they took the time...

I would wait until you hear the death squeak ;)

:chat:

I thought the sound was coming from the front too, but when I listened without my helmet on and off the spyder I was able to hear it distinctly from the rear when I let my friend take out...

Sorry Dee, I must have not gotten the thread update. I had to take it back 3 times and demand to have it resolved. I guess they don't care to take the back wheel off and redo the alignment and...

They didn't come out on top on several tests, but because they were not poor in any test and some oils were they scored overall better based on a multitude of tests that they scored in the middle to...

Personally I would not run Royal Purple, it's barely maintains its SAE rating at 100C. Its outside it's viscosity grade right out of the gate and at 15-90 cycles it's already at an SAE 30 viscosity...

I researched Amsoil and found plenty of people who share your skepticism as do I, but I found so many people who liked the product and decided to give it a try. They pioneered synthetics in the 70's...

:joke:I had emailed him prior to posting on here and he told me to ask on here because he did not know. I'll check and see if they match your numbers. Thanks.

Bajaron Rocks!

Yes very cheap and very fast! He is the goto guy for filters.

I had the shop put Amsoil in at the 600mile oil change and I will say that the Spyder has never been smoother and more responsive. The transmission shifts smoother and faster, the engine sounds so...

Are these compatible for all Spyders? I have a 2011 RT-S SE5 & what is the part#

Thanks, That what I was looking for. I was looking in GEAR & ACCESSORIES and only found the Oil Change Kits.

:thumbup::thumbup:

Yes, I only found the Kit that has the oil and filters as a kit, but no part numbers for the filters.

Thanks for half of the puzzle, yes the transmission filter is shorter and not the same.

I contacted him already by email, but have not heard back (maybe because he is at the Spyder event). I wanted the OEM part #'s to cross reference by my Amsoil rep, they are researching to see if...

I need the model/part numbers for the OEM Oil Filter and Transmission Oil Filter for 2011 SPYDER RT-S SE5. I have combed the Owner's Manual & Maintenance Manual and it is nowhere to be found. I have...

I need to stop reading threads for entertainment, I now fear relay problems & think I need some spare relays (just in case), Anyone know what relays the 2011 RT-S SE5 needs? I'll get some just to...

Spoke with Tim at Gold Plugs, and had some extra washers added to my order since they are cheap. He upgraded the shipping for a buck to ensure I get them by Friday for my 600 miles service appt on...

I just placed my order, thanks for your well formed rebuttal, you just saved me $40...Though I do have an affinity for o-rings, I'll get over it. :thumbup:

I guess its sounds like rotational chirping that is proportional to the amount of throttle I give it. It's loud, annoying, and makes the thing sound like it's struggling instead like a motorcycle...

My Spyder always squeals when I am accelerating. Only at minimal throttle does the sound die down to less irritating noise like in 5th at cruising speeds. It's so loud that my friends who were...

I don't forget this fact, I simply don't care when they charge $27K for these things. :roflblack: My Honda costs less and is more complicated than a Spyder. That fourth wheel adds a lots of...

:2thumbs: Thanks...One less thing to worry with! :yes:
