• 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.

    Kurykin grips

    Did not have to modify anything, just removed the original grips, used dish soap as a lubricant to work the Kuryakyn grips on to the bars, then put the end caps on. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Kurykin grips

    I do have photos. While had the chrome Kuryakyn's on my Nomad and my Roadstar, I opted for the black grips on my F3 and my previous GS... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Kurykin grips

    Kuryakyn grips As far as I know, there was no difference between the grips for the F3, and the RT. They come in chrome, or black...I bought the black for my F3. If you go to Kuryakyn's website, you should be able to locate the part number. I didn't have to trim anything.

    Kurykin grips

    Kuryakyn grips on an F3 I put the Kuryakyn grips on my F3 SE 6, and they work great, I couldn't be happier had them. I had previously put them on my 2009 GS SM5, and the were fine...also had them on my 1999 Kawasaki Nomad, and my 2002 Yamaha Roadstar Silverado.. I think they are by far the...

    What's your opinion on the nwe Spyder design and riding position?

    Rode an F3-S last Thursday in Temecula. Wow!! Loved the seating position, and performance was incredible!! Handled much better than my 2009 RS, which I have been working on to turn it into a ST...adding Madstad windshield, Custom Dynamics 3.5" risers, Rivco floorboards and heel-toe shifter...

    Spyder's and Age

    I have ridden motorcycles all my life, only one Harley, which I gave away many years ago. I had big road bikes until I moved to the high desert..on a dirt road, which my Yamaha Roadstar did not like. Sold it and bought a dual sport, a Kawasaki KLR 650, which I liked a lot after putting a...

    Anyone riding with Helibars riser?

    I recently installed Custom Dynamics 3.5" risers on my 2009 GS, and have no issues "forcing the clutch lever skyward"... These risers have a notch that accomodates the position of the reservoir. I first boughthe 4.5" risers from Custom Dynamics but found they will not work if you have the BRP...

    Custom Dynamics 4.5" Risers

    OK... I discovered that I have the factory 1" riser, and I could not make the risers work, due to the electrical harness. I bought the Custom Dynamics 3" risers, and they were a piece of cake to install. I love them, gives me a much more comfortable riding position. I now have a set of Custom...

    2009 RS won't start..

    4 hrs on a charger, and my Spyder started right up. While my charger said the voltage was at 12.7V, it also said the level was at 40% when I checked that. Hopefully this solves my starting issue...if not, then I'll be ordering an Odyssey. Thanks to those who offered suggestions..! I'm now...
