• 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.

    22 Spyder RT Brake issues - EBC Rotor larger than OEM & abnormal/uneven pad wear. Does any of this make sense?

    Maybe the prior owner or the dealer installed the rotors from the early '08-'12 models, as they run smaller diameter rotors???

    998cc High oil pressure blew oil filter cover o-ring! Anyone else? Ideas?

    Sorry my bad .....I new there were two different size bolts.....it's been four years since I did an oil change on my old STs, and I got into the habit of changing one filter at a time so I didn't get them mixed up...

    998cc High oil pressure blew oil filter cover o-ring! Anyone else? Ideas?

    Check the length of the retaining screws...the screws on the engine filter are longer than the screws on the HCM filter.... If by chance the screws were mixed up ...and if the longer screw or screws from the engine filter were used on the HCM filter, they bottom out and will not tighten the HCM...

    Need Handlebars - Not sure Size

    By looking at your photo you seem to be leaning back into the back rest...if it is a BRP back rest it is adjustable forward and back with a allan wrench...by adjusting the back rest forward that will bring you closer to the handle bars ... Col

    How do I know the DPS is working?

    I have found DPS would not react unless the Spyder is rolling...eg; with the engine running and the park break off roll the Spyder forward or back (only a little) I find the steering will turn with very little effort (DPS doing it's job).... This has been the case with my old 08.GS ... 14.STS...

    How many here are constantly hitting the Nanny Speed limit on curves

    I sometimes strap a carrier across the passenger seat via the passenger grab handles on my F3 ... (to carry my dog and other items) this pushes down on the passenger censer on the rear seat... This makes nanny VERY insensitive in curves ..(cutting the power and applying the breaks)...the first...
