• 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.

    2012 RT New Rider

    Welcome I have a 2012 RT and have not added any farkles so far. Not that I wouldn't like to, but I'm afraid once I get started, it'll be like an addiction and I can't stop. I have really had no problems with mine. I actually put about 70 miles on it this morning and still loving it. You...

    Spyder & AGE poll

    On the downhill side, coasting Will be 67 in 6 days. Or, since I don't actually celebrate birthdays anymore, I will be celebrating the 38th anniversary of my 29th birthday in 6 days. Bought my 2012 RT-S in fall of that year. Rode Harley Ultra Classic before that...

    Ethanol vs non-enthanol gas

    Thanks for posting, but watch out what you are getting. I found only one station within 50 miles of me that had anything higher than 87 octane without ethanol. Spyder will run on 87, but runs poorly. The one station I did find had everything up 93 octane, but is about 40 miles from me. I'd...

    Turned key on, nothing happened

    I could have forgotten to hold in the clutch, but I'm sure it was in "N". You all are right though - it has been a long winter. Hopefully we will all be back in synch before long. Whatever it was, I thank all who responded. Since it has not happened again, I'll just mark it up as experience...

    Turned key on, nothing happened

    Checked the battery and all is good. Don't know what is up with the remarks about the brake being on. When it was cold back in the winter, I would start the Spyder while standing on the ground next to her and then go back into the house to let her warm up before taking a ride. I just went out...

    Turned key on, nothing happened

    Got the Spyder out of the garage and washed all the pollen off and discovered that it is still blue, not yellow. Went for a short ride to blow off the water and then my wife and I went to eat dinner at a local Mexican restaurant. After eating and waddling back out to the parking lot, we...

    Facebook's Gender Games

    Not to steal the Neuticles thread, I decided to start a new one - Facebook must have had some inside information about Neuticles ahead of time. They just gave their user's the option of 50 new titles as far as gender is concerned. You'll notice that I said "their user's" since I am not a...

    can not ride bike

    Good luck on your surgery and recovery. My Dad had both knees done (not at the same time) and his advise is - EXERCISE, EXERCISE, EXERCISE. The more work you can give the new knee, the sooner you will be back on your Spyder again...
