• 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.

    I hope you love it. I just didn't. It was OK and fun in its own way but just wasn't for me. My wife rode it a little, but in the end, prefered riding with me. She wanted me to love it and probably felt safer on it than the motorcycle at this point in our life but I just didn't warm up to it...

    We picked up the Spyder on Saturday. My wife rode it home from Port Clinton, OH to our house outside of Oberlin, OH. Only about an hour ride. We ran into heavy rain for about the last 20 minutes though. I was in the Nissan Murano following her. I started to pull over and ride it home...

    Heck, you guys didn't have to run away just because you are riding Spyders now. :) There are usually at least a couple of Spyers at my Maintenance Day and other rallies. Marcarl is always there on his, I hear a rumor that Big Tom may have bought one last week. There are a couple of others also...

    Well, sort of a new owner. Actually bought at 2012 RT Limited today in pearl white. It has about 6200 miles on it and looks like it just came off the showroom floor. When I say "sort of a new owner", what I mean is that I actually bought it for my wife. She has been wanting one ever since we...

    How many of us are still riding two wheel motorcyles?

    I'm new here and this is actually my first post. I actually just bought a 2012 Spyder RT Limited for my wife. She has wanted one ever since we took one for a test ride a few years ago. For me, I've ridden many bikes over the years but have been riding Yamaha Ventures since about 1998 I think...
