• 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.

    Question??? With all respect.

    Well said. I get angry reading some posts from Spyder riders, who are as condescending and make insecure remarks of two wheeled bike riders. I thank you for this response. Your first comment was the best response. The Spyder affords me the opportunity to experience the richness of America with...

    Shock adjustment??

    So the adjustments are for compensation of weight? Or as I asked at the beginning, what is the reasoning for adjusting? Everyone I have spoken with says they have the shocks adjusted to 5. This is smaller people and very large people.

    Shock adjustment??

    Whats the shock adjustment reasoning? Do you want it hard for cornering? Do you want it soft for cornering? Do you want it hard for road riding? Do you want it soft for road riding? What are the effects of changing the setting? What do you set your shocks at and for what reason?

    How to wash Spyder?

    I would take exception to using a product like "Pledge". It is abrasive and over time will damage your finish.

    How to wash Spyder?

    Calling up codes on 08 Spyder

    Lamont did a video on calling up codes on his RT. Can the codes be called up on 08 Spyders? I tried finding something, here on Spyder Lovers, but i don't have a lot of luck finding older posts on certain subjects.

    Shark Bluetooth Motorcycle intercom.

    I agree I purchased there stereo. It works, but is crap, nothing like advertised. Don't expect to return if your not satisfied. I gave up on the stereo. So my good deal made the one that works cost more then it had to.

    Helmet noise

    Noise Its a full face Bell helmet. When the shield is down the buffeting noise is much greater then when it is up. Is this true with your helmet?

    My wife asked me to ask are some helmets quieter then others? She gets a lot of wind noise and has trouble hearing the helmet speakers.

    DPS question

    Thanks I didn't think about the battery connection. I have a new battery installed last year. It was on a battery tender but I discovered after the issue the battery tender fuse had blown. So maybe my battery wasn't completely charged.

    DPS question

    DPS I agree, I thought it sitting for a while contributed to the issue. The technician calibrated everything. I think Lamont and tech are right. Both times happened with road issues. My tech said he could not find anything either. So I guess I will see how it goes. I was just alarmed planning...
