• 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.

    Why did you buy Your spyder?

    Why, well... I always enjoyed motorcycles, but my "grandpa" mind set said "you will hurt yourself on one of those". Wife was driving home and saw a silver RT, and proceeded to tell me that she wanted one. Well, it is a motorcycle, so I hemmed and hawed, almost had her convinced that we did...

    Oregon Coast Highway

    After ryding from Lincoln City to SITR, I would recommend taking a pocket camera. There are a lot of places to pull out on the West side of 101 for photos, if you are traveling North, be aware that you will need to cross the highway. The weather is usually in the mid 50s to mid 60s, with it...

    Spyder Meet and Eat BBQ/Pot Luck - August 25th

    Shucks... We had already scheduled that weekend to be in Bend for ZZ Top and some rafting. Maybe next year. This sounds like too much fun. Dan, I will do some checking, but I think I might have a weekend ryde idea that will be a lot of fun for next summer/fall. I will fill you in on details...

    Trip to the Redwoods Spyder gathering 2012

    Jumping in a little late, too busy trying to close down my desk at work:helpsmilie: Wife and I will be heading out sometime Sunday, stopping at father's beach house in Lincoln City to say "Hi" to the birthday grandson, then heading south on 101 to the Super 8 in Coos Bay. We might connect...

    Southern Oregon Spyder ryders

    Corn Dog Ryde??? Not sure what or how the name came about, but we may be able to swing down there, depending on work and kids. Salem is a bit far, but it sounds interesting.

    Spyder Sightings

    Nice Day Saw 2 spyders in Pacific City around lunch time. Hope your ryde was as good as ours. If in Oregon, try the Hebo Highway (Hwy 22), beautiful scenery (not as nice as my wife, but still nice), and a nice ryde with curves.

    Oregon DMV Riders Test

    Depending on your age, you may need to have the "Basic Rider Training" before you can officially obtain your endorsement. The benefit of taking BRT is that the written and skills test are then waived at the DMV and you just need to pay the money and have the picture taken. Regardless of which...

    Back road map

    In Oregon, the DMV produces a foldout map (Form 737-3479) that has highlight routes for "scenic motorcycle rides" and "Oregon scenic byways". SWMB and I have found that this is spot on for scenic and interesting routes to take for short get aways. Best of luck, and like was earlier posted...

    Anyone have an Aluma MCT or MCTXL trailer?

    Not to Hijack, but... Has anyone thought to manufacture or have a manufacturer make a "pigtail" that will convert from the BRP end on the bike to a trailer with a 4 flat plug? I am going to have the dealer install the hitch and harness and then take it to a local trailer shop to see if they...
