• 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.

    Garmin 665 on 2014 RT-Limited

    Garmin Zumo 660 Problem--Update I think I have found the root of my problem. The Mount that I ordered from Amazon and UPC label on the Garmin Motorcycle Mount Box says Motorcycle Mount Kit 010-11270-03 but the mount inside the box says 011-02023-25. The box [made in Taiwan] contains the wrong...

    Garmin Zumo 660 Problem--Update I am having problems getting the NEW Garmin 660 mount to transfer to my F3. I took the mount apart and find that power gets to the printed circuit board inside the Garmin Mount but it does not get to the power pins for the 660 GPS. From this observation I deduce...

    Garmin 665 on 2014 RT-Limited

    Garmin Zumo 660 Problem I had a Garmin Zumo 660 on my RT and I want to move it to my new F3. I purchased Lamonster's handlebar GPS Mount (no problem here). I also purchased a Zumo 660 Harness from Amizon. After I got it installed I found that it did not work. There was no power getting to the...

    I live in Stow, Oh, near Akron. I ride an F3-S. It is my 3rd Spyder. I'll be heading to Spyderfest 2016 on the 23rd of April (I need to get some work done on my trike at Pitbull before the crowd shows up).

    in case you missed LADY GAGA today

    Lady Gaga Remember that the National Anthem was actually a POEM written by Francis Scott Key during the war of 1812. The music was added 100 years later and was patterned after a barroom drinking song. So I am not sure exactly what 'traditional' means. She did a hell of a job, though.

    top speed

    F3 Top Speed The theoretical top speed of any Spyder is easily calculated without endangering yourself or anyone else. Unless you have a slipping clutch the ratio of engine rpm to speed is fixed. So all you need to do is note the rpm at a lower speed, say, 60mph. If the rpm at that speed is...

    ISCI Handbrake for F3 installed

    ISCI Handbrake for the F3 I found the electrical problem (pinched wires in the handlebar mount) :gaah:and everything went well after I un-pinched the wires. I had to take a little time to re-route the wires because the heated grip wires made the bundle too large for the ISCI mounting hardware...
