• 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.

2nd update question...maximum range of bike...

Does anyone know if the second update worked to address performance issues by making the mixture of fuel/air more rich? I've been fiddling with my JB and I still get popping when coming out of coasting, esp. in 4th gear.

I'll continue to dial the numbers back a little, but I'm curious if the second update effectively increased performance, and by doing so, made the Spyder run less 'lean', as it was stock...

Also, I ran a total of 167.5 miles on one tank...must've been on vapors...went out for a 150 mile ride, with 17.5 miles on the odometer before I left. The bike took 5.565 gallons to fill it up...pretty close to empty, eh?

Thanks doc...I thought so as my old JB settings were definitely throwing too much fuel into the mix. After the first update, I didn't have to tweak things too much...it seems that after the second, I really have to dial things down a lot...
