• 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.

    50 mph 5th gear roll on 08 SM vs 09 SE

    50 mph is way to slow for 5th gear on a SM5. My SM5 boggs bad when going too slow in that high of a gear.

    DPS Mileage

    Mine is a 2009 SM5 and it first started having steering issues around 5000 miles. I took it in to have the recall done, and it handled better than it ever did. It felt like I did not have power steering before the update. It worked good, but occasionaly the steering would still lock up. It was...

    Spyder Service Manual

    I ordered the service manual the same day that I bought the Spyder. They said that they would have to order it. They delivered my Spyder the very next day and they brought the service manual with it.

    Mileage on rear tire.

    How many miles are people getting out of the stock rear tire? I just hit 5000 miles today, and it will not be long before I need a new tire. The edges of the tire look good but, the center of the tire looks bald. I am running the recommended air pressure and check it regularly.:helpsmilie:

    Update done.

    Finally decided to get the update done. I was riding to work last tuesday and the steering locked up. It would not let me turn the handlebars. I had to force the handlebars to turn and it finally broke free and allowed me to turn. This happened a few more times on the way. It continued to lock...

    Garage door control

    Flash to pass. I purchased the flash to pass garage door opener. The only problem I had was getting to the wires going to the headlight. I ended up hooking the transmitter to the horn on the Spyder. Now when I pull up to the garage, I just hit the horn twice and the garage door opens. Works great.
