• 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.

    Hey, folks. Been awhile but I wanted to pop in and say, "hi". I sold my Spyder to a nice gentleman in the Marines a year ago. I miss it but it was the right thing to do. I've got s great new roof to show for it along with 4 other motorcycles. I haven't ridden much this season due to a...

    BUELL closing ???

    I'm a huge Buell fan so this really bums me out. Hopefully Erik lands with another garage soon. HD is now void of innovation. I hope they fold.

    RPG Sold!

    My littlest guy calls all motorcycles "da-da". When he gets home, he runs to my closest motorcycle and says, "ride??". His favorite toys are motorcycles and he rides his little bike around saying, "vroom, vroom!". I never had a chance. It made this an easy decision. :D

    RPG Sold!

    Hey, folks. Some of you may have seen my Spyder on eBay. I'm happy to say she sold for just under $14k. She went to a Marine whom I invited to join this community. His wife serves in the Navy and she bought one too. Be sure to give him a hard time for buying an Air Force themed bike! :)...

    Spyder GS Value

    What would you expect a fully-loaded PE '08 GS with 20k miles to sell for today? I haven't seen anything with this kind of mileage for sale so not sure. HD dealer has trade in value at 9k. I have more than that in paint jobs. Kelly Blue Book has the 08 Spyder at $13,300 but doesn't factor in...

    sorry- meant NOT specifically on a Spyder. Didn't think about the heat though. I'm just trying to understand the concept.

    Does anyone have experience with Big Bore kits- (not specifically on a Spyder)? Are the performance gains significant?

    2010 Spyders?

    I was stopped by a trucker that delivers Spyders and he had the following to offer: The trucks had to be redesigned to fit the larger profile of the 2010s. He also stated that the engine was around 1900cc. Take it for what it is- hearsay. He seemed convincing enough to me though.

    Sidecar

    Thinking of having a small sidecar built. Anyone looked into this? How would the VSS react? It seems to handle the trailer okay but I wonder about the lateral pull.

    Can't Help But Smile

    Can't afford it, I'm afraid. Workin' on moving down that way though. :) Been lookin' at a few pilot helmets. I have 11 helmets now though so it's hard to justify another. Love my German lids. ;)
