• 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.

Flags

I have tried flags in several places on my Spyder

attachment.php
up top they seemed to be the best, until i tried putting my cover on the Spyder, broke flag masts or ripped cover, next idea

attachment.php
hey this worked great, no problem with the cover, but before very long the flag got very dirty very quick, next idea

attachment.php
tried these and so far they stay clean, don't interfere with the cover, and still fly proudly.

this last one is the Rivco, license plate mounted dual flag holder in chrome.

Still not real happy with Rivco because of some cheap flag holder clips that i had to pay extra for but the flag holder is nice.

I've had my ISCI tall flag/license plate holder for years. Transferred from '10 RT to '14 RTS...great quality...stands up to my miles of smiles...check it out..pretty sure your detail to quality will approve. Hope all goes great with you guys....how are the granite counter tops coming???:roflblack:

Granite counter tops ....:(:( .........she is still searching for the ones she wants ............... the estimates are getting higher :(:(
 
What next...??

saw some great ones mounted to the front fender mounts. Flags flew nicely up there...:thumbup: wish I had a photo, no much of a shutter bug...
 
Murphybrown, that's the same one I have. Very pleased with it. Very good quality AND the flag they supply is made in America and comes from SSP Flags.
 
Do you folks who have flags mounted near the license plate have a problem with the flags getting full of road crud? Seems to me that they would. That black Tupperware is the first to get dirty on my :spyder2:.

I'd like to see that, too! If anyone gets a pic, please post it.

We'll find out by the time we get to your place in Alaska, Dwayne. Though my US flags mounted there did OK, so far, coming home from Spyderfest.
 
Counter tops

Still taking greif over the granite counter tops? Better bite the bullet before it costs even more!
 
Yep....truth spoken here..

SSP is the go to flag company IMHO...just ordered the custom flags for the North to Alaska group. Yep the ISCI flag/license plate holder (the tall model clears everything)..and they are an awesome Spyderlovers Sponsor also...Go ISCI and SSP Flags..:thumbup::yes:
 
I bought the Rivco trunk mounted flag mounts at Spyderfest. So far have only flown the US flag but I've got an Idaho state flag and a Finland flag on order. Will fly whichever I'm in the mood for as the second flag. My heritage is Finnish, of which I'm quite proud. So far the flag doesn't seem to have gotten too dirty although I rode through a lot of rain on the way home. I agree w/ Joe about the cheap chincy clips. I read somewhere the other day a suggestion to use stainless washers and a rubber grommet to hold the flag in place.

One thing I've noticed is the flag flies backwards a lot of the time, flapping up against the antenna. Shows how much the wind swirls around behind the bike at 70 plus! Anyone else ever notice this?

You're Finnish! I'm Un-finnished!
 
Nope on dirt

And the SSP flags launder well... I'll be flying them. All the way on North to Alaska trip. :thumbup::yes:
