• 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.

    traction control?

    I share the same goal. I'm trying to achieve a bit more VSS "flexibility" at low speeds when turning the handlebars (at a reasonable angle) and accelerating. IMHO, the spitting and sputtering when the spyder is well under control is overreaching and annoying. Supposedly, VW/Audi cars have a...

    traction control?

    FWIW, I purchased some wire taps and I plan to experiment with dampening/reducing the Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) voltage feedback. This would maintain the VSS function but delay the throttle kill response based on the steering angle. If I can achieve a 30% reduction in steering angle response...

    Talk to me about reliability

    2009 GS with 560 miles (purchased it a month ago with 80 miles from first owner). Problems so far: Broken/stuck shock adjuster. Dealer replaced under warranty. First check engine light - odd partial throttle engine stuttering. Need to troubleshoot. Wish I had known the magic combination of...

    Power Commander for RT

    From reading past threads, I thought that issue was resolved - unplug all four wheel sensors. No?

    Power Commander for RT

    TwoBros released three different dyno-tuned maps for the JB Pro, each with different intake/exhaust modifications. But, yes, custom tuning would be nice. You could always rent dyno time and make the modifications on your laptop with Top Tune between runs.

    Power Commander for RT

    Watch the video Lamont posted. The AFR changes as the map is adjusted at ~5K RPM. Yes, JB Pro modifies the injector signal whether in open or closed loop mode.

    Power Commander for RT

    Thanks for clarifying the criteria for exiting closed loop mode. :thumbup: How much is the Power Commander going for? I see one selling on eBay for $325. JB Pro is selling for $268 at 58cycle.

    Power Commander for RT

    JB is a simple open loop controller (no O2 sensor reading). JB Pro is a closed loop controller (unless WOT). All maps revert to open loop at WOT. :) Also, JB Pro and Power Commander maps are interchangeable (same tuning software).

    How is this product better than TwoBro's Juice Box Pro? :popcorn:

    My Phantom's VIN.....

    Why are you asking the dealership? Squat down and look at the identification plate. :thumbup:

    My Phantom's VIN.....

    :agree: I had the same question when I purchased my phantom. The model # and VIN # are listed on the identification plate near the rear wheel.

    Heated Seat

    Would a simple 12v heater pad for $20 work? Just need to purchase a switch and wire.

    Rear wheel

    :agree: Yup, I found those same instructions. Appears to be much easier that removing the fender, tensioning the belt, etc.

    AARP-HARLEY-WHY I RIDE A SPYDER!

    It really depends on who you ask. Everyone has an opinion. ;) Most of the people my age (25 - 35) like the look and sound of the spyder (with TwoBros exhaust). A few have referred to it as "gay looking" and comment on the number of "old" folks riding them. Doesn't bother me. Case in point - my...
