• 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.

    Unbelievable

    Just an update Since this post was initiated some 9 months ago - no more problems of any type with the RS. Very happy with it. Almost makes me want to visit the RT - if they're as reliable.

    I've ordered one, so I'll let you know. Should have it next week.

    Limp home mode

    Maybe check that the fuses for the brake lights are the correct amperage - mine weren't (though the mix up didn't affect brake lights).

    Ah, but the ampere (amp) was named for a French mathematician!

    Took it for a spirited 50 mile ride (within the limits of break in) and no problems. Happiness.

    Larry, while there are fuses under the seat, I was talking about the fuses and relays in the box just above and to the right of the front compartment (standing in front of the bike looking toward its rear). You need to pull out the strip of plastic that covers it (mostly, you can still see...

    Well damn, Arntufun, I looked at the fuse ratings and you're right - it should be 15A. And the Cluster fuse next to it, which should be 5A, was 15A. So they'd been reversed! No wonder the thing blew! Any idea if that would be a factory issue or a dealer setup issue?

    NancysToy - thanks, that was enough info for me to fix it. Checked the cooling fan relay and fuse, and the 5A fuse was blown. She's back to normal. Whew. I'm a bit on a hair trigger with these things.

    I know, NancyToy, that's so true. I'll check the relay's in the morning. I'm too deep in the gin & tonics to do it now.

    I got a fault code P00480. Any idea what that is?

    Oh yeah. Forgot I had to have a foot on the brake. Engine light still comes on. Any ideas?

    And now it won't even start. Won't shift to neutral. I can put high beams on and I can hear the charging system run up when I hit the start button, but the engine won't start.

    Unbelievable

    18.9 miles on my Dad's new Spyder, and the engine light comes on. I suppose I should just be grateful that it didn't go into limp mode. I guess they haven't fixed these things. Any ideas on how to check what the problem might be, or at least, if there's a way to look at codes? Thanks
