• 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.

    Has anyone else with a 14' noticed

    I just bought my white/black '14 RSS a couple weeks ago and I just noticed the same thing before washing it. I only ride it on paved roads, but I was thinking I just picked up some dust along the way. It was pretty noticeable and if I rubbed my finger across the plastic panels my fingers would...

    Wind blast

    All great advice, thank you! I might have to look into the anti-sway bar if it helps that much. I'll have to ask if my dealer can do the laser alignment. I live in Ohio and I was okay on I-70 going to and from the dealer, when the wind was at my face and at my back, but with the cross wind on...

    Wind blast

    Hi Bob, Thanks for the quick reply! I tried using my knees and I even tucked down a bit. It wasn't just an annoying blast in the face. It literally felt like my body was getting moved from side to side. So much so that I started white knuckling the grips after a while. I was starting to...

    Wind blast

    Hey everyone! I've had my new Spyder RS-S for about a week now and I'm loving it, with one exception. I took it on the highway for about a 50 mile round trip yesterday and it was NOT fun! That being said, keep in mind that I'm fairly new to motorcycles and very new to the Spyder, so maybe...

    Thanks to everyone who has viewed my post and responded. This seems like a great forum and I look forward to being part of the SpyderLovers community. I'll let everyone know how my dealer responds to these issues.

    About to be a new Spyder owner......please calm me down!

    I got the white/black RSS SM5, like the one Danica Patrick is on in the promotional pictures. Now only if she was included with the purchase! :) I'll include pictures and a first ride impression after receiving it later this week.

    About to be a new Spyder owner......please calm me down!

    Hi everyone, After a couple years of looking at the Spyder and being very intrigued, I have placed an order for a 2014 RS-S SM5. While waiting for my loan processing paperwork to be completed I have been reading a lot of threads on this forum and others. Now I'm starting to question my decision...
