• 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.

Heat in the Seat.....Ouch!

I was thinking of the towel idea also, but I wanted to make sure I wasn't just being a Mississippian....LOL

:shocked: I couldn't even begin to keep track of where I was in a word like that if I had to type it! :clap: :bowdown: :thumbup:

Kind of like "banana"; only much more interesting! :roflblack:
 
Cheap not so easy

I cheated, as I run a fabric store. Grabbed so knit fabric, either matching or for my prototype, white. A lil elastic around the edges. That was the not so easy part. Painted on a couple of spiders. Now I throw my leg over, never worrying about heat. Never having to move a bike cover, and just throw it in the wash.

Travel Cover for now.... Custom fit cover when not using...

Many years ago when I lived on my Honda CX500, I would park it for the day with no thought to covering it to protect from the hot Florida sun. One hot August afternoon leaving work, I started my bike as usual but noticed something funny on the instrument panel - I looked closer, and saw that the last (10ths) digit on my trip meter had started to melt and deform, so that the number 5 was barely recognizable - even though the trip meter continued to work. The sun must have hit the instrument panel lens just right.....

We've only owned our Spyder for a little over a month now - I use the travel cover when I know the Spyder is going to sit in the sun for very long. When it's going to sit for the day - the full cover goes on. The sun will damage things over time.

I'm sure there are many spyderlovers who love riding the spyder to work like I do. But man does it hurt to sit on the spyder after it's been sitting for a few hours in non-shaded 104 degree heat! :yikes::yikes::yikes: Lol

I'm brainstorming on something to put over it. What do you guys use?

From Cycle Shade for the RS.

kontour seat does not get hot(its mesh) and flows air nicely.

Features & benefits: http://kontourseat.com/id2.html

Yep, Kontour seats do not get hot at all. My wife and I both have them and won't ride without one now.

Trying to figure out how I can get a Corbin solo seat and smuggler trunk, then send the Corbin seat to Kontour to be recovered so it's not a blistering pain machine. Kontour says they only to stock seats. My wallet says otherwise!

Yeah, i'm not sure why that is...but :dontknow: I would like a gas door, but not sure how that would work messing with the mesh....sometimes i wish i could leave well enough alone.... :banghead:

And I certainly have never meant to pick on your State; Goodnes knows...Us New Yawkers certainly have a lot of glass walls up around us! :shocked: :roflblack:

You guys need to ride through MS sometime. Lots of cotton fields for you to look at. LOL
 
Hey this is not a bad price worth a try. I just ordered one, can't go wrong for 12.99 with shipping. Just type in cyclesunblocker on e-bay

Glad I kept reading through this post!!! I just ordered one too!!

The parking lot at work was just re-tarred about a month ago. HOT HOT HOT in this 95 and above weather!!! They removed all the little trees in the islands, so there are no shady spots left!!! :mad::mad::mad: My tushy gets a wee bit toasty....
