• 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.

Does anyone know if the F3 will need an upgraded swaybar, if so is Ron working on one, or is it too early

I'm thinking the F3 has to hit the streets before aftermarket manufacturers can get their hands on one and fabricate aftermarket parts for it. I don't believe it can be done by the specs list alone.

Then again, this is just conjecture on my part, as I have never fabricated an aftermarket part...

It's easy! Anyone can do it!

Step 1- Just call your fabricator and tell him EXACTLY what you want.

Step 2- Then wait, and wait and wait.

Step 3- Then get the prototype that doesn't resemble anything you described.

Step 4- Then have your fabricator try again and repeat Step #2

Step 5- Get the Prototype. Try it out. Works GREAT!

Step 6- Go into production and repeat Step #2

Step 7- Take delivery of the production run and find 25% or more are not within tolerance.
- There are 2 ways to do this....
1- Ship everything and have your customer tell you the product is junk
2- Take time to check each and every part and hope you discover the defect BEFORE you ship

Step 8- Make excuses to the patient customer as to why you STILL CAN'T SHIP THEIR ORDER! :yikes:

Step 9- Go back to your fabricator and work out a system by which every piece comes out as it should and repeat Step #2

Step 10- Finally get the process nailed down and working smoothly. This usually happens just about the time everyone quits riding for the season.

Step 11- Now that you've got some spare time your brain starts churning and you get the bright idea for improving the product! :thumbup: Which brings you back to Step #1 to begin the process all over again!

Like the movie says! "It's a wonderful life!" And I'm loving every minute of it! :ohyea:

Wow you get to have all the fun and get paid too..... lol
 
It's never too late..

It's too early...

Gosh, you just helped & brought back some wonderful memories for me, and of a concert that was probably one of the very best I ever attended here or anywhere.


Thanks for all the hard work you do for SpYder . . .

Hi Ron,

Re: It's easy! Anyone can do it!

Been there, done that.

Most people have no idea of what it means to develop a product & then put it out into the marketplace.

It can make you old before your time. I wouldn't do anything different.

Thanks for the laugh, Ron!
just what my day needed...
 
Nicely put..!!

comical as it may sound it is the path to producing a quality product such as yours. Glad you don't give up half way...that step #2 is the killer..:2thumbs:
 
Based on the pricing of the accessories I have seen in BRP catalog, I.e. License plate holder @ $95.00 we really need after market products at realistic pricing.
