• 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.

    Belt squeal after new tire installed

    BajaRon thanks for the information....Can you get a manual or at least the specs for the 2011 Spyder RT SE-5 for belt tension load?? We had an ever so slight amount of squeal prior to the new tire, but since the new rear tire install it is almost consent and very loud during a left hand turn..

    Belt squeal after new tire installed

    We have a 2011 RT SE-5 and just recently had a new rear tire put on. Now the drive belt, at least that's what I think it is, is squealing. It is especially bad when turning. Checking the belt it appears true on the sprocket and it not running left or right, seems to be centered on the sprocket...

    Anti Freeze leak 2010 RT

    My wife has a 2011 RT and the last 2 times I moved her Spyder out of the garage there has been a puddle of anti freeze on the floor. The first time was after she had taken it out with me on my motorcycle, for a 100 mile ride immediately following her 9K service/winter. So I figured the shop...
