• 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.

    Motorcycle Dave here with a Drivers License question

    Hi, Dave! We just renew and the MC endorsement carries over. (MN) Don't know about coming in - been here 40+ years. We do have a varying period every spring of sand, etc. in the. corners until the first raging downpour.

    What Communication devices do you use between rider/pillion & other riders in your group?

    We switched helmets when we got the RT. New ones (Schuberth) came with collar/communicator using BT. Been happy with them ever since.

    Looking at buying - If you are over 80 y/o and ride a Spyder, raise your hand...

    I'd say, go for it! I traded my 07 BMW for my 15 RT-S 9 years back. Have no plans to sell it; still much fun. Will be 80 in 2 months, been riding with both of them and 65 years, so far. One of the best things is parking in gravel lots at restraints with no worries.😎

    Passenger fell asleep!

    Passenger zzzzzz . . . W used to do that on trips, especially when we had the Beemers. Since the :f_spider:, not so much - Spyder ergonomics too different.

    Try BajaRon's stabilizer before getting new Shocks? Or What?

    Baja Ron's bar made a huge difference for my RT! I ryde it just as hard as I rode my Beemer.

    When and where was the first time you rode a Can-Am tryke ??

    In 07 the dealer in White Bear Lake had some demos. My wife got tired of my helmet in her face while riding my Beemer, and decided to try her own. She took the MSF course and passed! We found her a 250 Virago, and she was on her way. After a couple of years she wasn't yet comfortable on two...

    Your experience/thoughts on Spyder vs Other Trikes?

    While I was still riding Beemers, my wife got a Spyder GS in '08. We of course had to farkelize it, which meant many test rides for me after each addition (cruise, shield(s), luggage, etc). I knew about spiders so when I was coming out of a nasty bout with Lyme I knew what I needed. Traded by...

    What is a good way of Talking To my Passenger - helmets or add-ons?

    There are a lot of BlueTooth-enabled units around. We have Schuberth helmets (not cheap, unfortunately, but fit us well) that have worked very well for us. The electronics are in a collar that attaches to the helmets that are USB-charged (a charge usually lasts all day for us). We got to...

    Recommendation for cover that is reasonable in cost

    Try www.bigbikeparts.com I know their 1/2 cover works with 20-22 Spyder; not sure about the full cover. Give them a try.
