• 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.

    Cornering Tips for a Newbie

    You guys are right handers, right? I have similar experience, turning left in the direction of the road camber is a breeze, but right up against the camber is always slower for me. A perfect flat road....no problem but the slightest camber and i take the right handers slower. So for u right...

    Cornering Tips for a Newbie

    My two cents worth....I pull on the inside grip rather than push with out side hand, the pulling action moves my body forward and into the turn, push down on outside foot and push on spyder with inside knee. These actions can be slight or quite aggressive depending on speed and the turn you...

    P1614 code like Fligt Risk's, BUT ....

    Been there done that...it is throttle body. You will notice that the revs is all over the place and you should also smell unburnt fuel. I never tried to engage gears when it is like that, the noise was way to painful to listen to. I soon realised that you cant rev or ride the problem away. Just...

    Oil in filter box

Also check oil level not to full, being to full being the reason why it pushes oil from engine through breather into air box. Normally all oil vapors is vented from engine to air filter where it...

    Oil in filter box

    What causes oil to end up in the filter box? Lots of oil, the filter fins is submerged in the oil. Have not seen it but that is what the shop said. I do not do my own oil changes, or top up oil. Spyder is young and only had two services done by dealer. In with a unrelated problem....i hope (P...

    Seal Floorboards or Lamont's NBV highway pegs?

    NBV pegs are good, have the straight ones, a bit wide having both feet up there but perfect to relief one leg at a time. The new angled version should solve that problem. I luv them and would recommend....

    reverse problems

    Our drive way is on an incline and somedays I would release the brake and have the spyder roll forward and then engage first, that is the only time I get a shift without a clunk. At least hearing the clunk confirms my hearing is still OK!
