• 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.

    Considering starting a Tucson area riding group.

    Has the club been started? I've been riding my Spyder with a BMW group for the past several years. Nice guys, a little too fast, so I've been looking around for a Spyder group. Sierra Vista is a little far so is anything happening with this potential new group?

    Gas mileage 2013 ST

    Well I really wasn't looking for kudos on the gas mileage, but wondering if I was missing something. I think the fact that mileage may vary requires me doing this several times over to make sure I get a good average. 40 mpg seems a little too much Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Gas mileage 2013 ST

    Well, those are the numbers. Now this was also going up Mt Lemmon for about 12 miles, average grade 4%. In addition to street riding. Coming down Lemmon not much gas used, I'd assume..anyway Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Gas mileage 2013 ST

    I just decided to once again review my gas mileage. So rode 81.4 miles and used 2.03 gallons of premium. Seems high. My 08 was about 33 or so. I had also read that most were getting around 33-35. Anyone getting the 40+ in mileage. I'm sure of the numbers. My only concern was that the tank got...

    Blue Tooth Dongle install on 2013 ST Limited

    I'm a little confused on the bluetooth dongle install. When I go to the BRP page showing the dongle it shows it being installed next to the 12 volt outlet. I went to the 12 volt outlet on my Spyder and next to it is a multi pin connector. So my question is two fold; 1) do you just plug the...

    Heated vest on St Limited

    Traded my 09 for the St Limited. On the 09 I had a couple of sockets put in for my heated vest any my fuzz buster. I know there is a plug in the front trunk but that's a long ways away. Anyone have suggestions as to where to install a plug if any? Thanks

    2013 Spyder RT or 2014 Spyder RT

    Well, its time to trade the 2009 Spyder. So when I walk into the dealer figuring he'll have a 2013 RT avaliable or maybe a 2014 on the floor. I know the price will be better for th 13 but does the 14 have enough better features to pay extra?

    Gas leak hot weather storage

    I leave my 2009 Spyder in our AZ garage during the summer. We go back to MI. After we come back there is a gas leak from the bottom right sider of the Spyder. I drive for about 25 minutes and the gas leak stops. I've had all the updates, but maybe there is some kind of overflow that heats up...

    My Wife does not like riding on the Spyder!

    Whoa glad I read this thread :sour: Getting a new Spyder the 2009 is about due for a trade-in. My wife says she wants to ride this time, so now I'm undecided which model to get. I can see where passenger stability is an issue, going slow in the beginning will be important. So is it the RT or RS...

    2009 Spyder The Dealer wants to buy back, interesting

    The dealer I purchased my Spyder from called once and then again to purchase my Spyder in Tucson, AZ. They're not looking to trade but to purchase outright. Strange I thought, Is there a shortage of used Spyders? Well, I'm going in to see what the gig is. (Funny, the gal said bring your title, I...
