• 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.

    Can am Spyder RS handbrake

    reason for hand lever So a few years back, I am cranking through a curve on my 650 ninja. I ride with all controls covered. A deer comes like a bat outta hell from my right and I squeeze the brakes. She passed so close to my front tire that I couldn't see her legs below the knee. If I had to...

    iPod question

    OK, that works Maybe it's because my iPod is really old but it does seem that the only way to control what's playing is from the iPod; the Spyder/iPod link seems to do nothing at all. Pulling the iPod and forcing something to play then hooking it back into the Spyder works.

    iPod question

    3rd layer? I'm stuck on this problem as well. I want to select album mode and have the iPod start at album <x> and continue down through the list. Mode to get to the iPod menu. Long press (don't recall which button) to get into the 'edit' mode. Down button to get to 'Album'. Right button to...

    Dragon and the " RATTLER "

    Lots of good roads down south As long as you're in the area, just do a duckduckgo (*) search of 'best motorcycle rides in <name of state>'. Since the Appalachian mountains start in GA and to to Maine, anything that runs along or crosses them is going to be twisty and fun. Since the south rarely...

    Spyder RS in a uhaul trailer

    Good info and some thoughts I'll eventually need to do some hauling so good to know. One thing I'll probably try is lashing the Spyder down like I do when moving bikes using a trick my bike dealer showed me. Use ratchet straps with the metal hooks at the end. Take the long strap and make a...

    2014 ST Limited Feedback please ;)

    No heat at all My first Spyder is a 2014 ST Limited and I've had no issues with heat anywhere; right foot, under the seat, just no heat at all. I wear full gear and live in NH so our hot days, err day, was 85. My commute is about 70 miles each way. The dealer told me that the 2014 fans blow...

    ST SE5 mileage/gallon & Taking the Turns

    1500 miles and here's my feedback Just switched to 3 wheels (new ST) from a lot of years on 2 and think I know what you're feeling. You head into a turn, everything is going great and suddenly the bike takes off in one direction or the other. Scared the crap out of me the first (few) times it...
