• 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.

    FS: 2022 Spyder RT

    A beautiful ride. Compare to a new one and it’s a no brainer, cause it is new. It will be great buy for a lucky rider.

    How do I post a pic in a new thread? Send me there please

    Did a search and know its here somewhere but could only find how to orient. Want to post pics for a sale from my Mac or Samsung S24. Could not find this function anywhere on this forum but recall seeing it at one time. Thanks

    My hat is off to this Australian gentleman and his dog... did someone say water...

    Thinking same. $300 and none of this would have happened. Rescuers/searchers risk their life and family puts life on hold. But he has internet fame now. He said communications went out. Well yeah, where’s the trip/contingency planning?

    A question or two for those who carry firearms on them when riding

    Always carry on car/truck road trips with my spouse, or solo, as we travel in in some isolated places in the SW (isn't any unplanned stop on a road isolated"?) My concern is a flat tire or other problems when the wrong people may stop to "help". Felons often need cash, a car or worse. I would...

    Those of you that Concealed Carry on your Spyder, what type of holster do you use?

    Definitely in church. Largest group of unprotected citizens around on Sunday morning. All with their back to the door. Hopefully your church has discussed security measures.

    What Proof of Extended Warranty did you get?

    I have a '21 RT with 7500 miles and no problems. I may want to sell it in a year or so and I'm coming up on my deadline for an extended warranty next month. I would purchase through Imotorsports as that seems to be the place to go for best price. My question is if i sell in the next year and...

    Any before & after info on Elka suspension upgrades?

    I put the Elka's on my 2021 RT and am very happy with them. First ride on my 1/2 mile gravel road I could tell I had better shocks going over some rough spots. They were enough of an improvement I didn't go with the Baja Ron. It made cornering smoother and smoothed out the rough tarmac roads. I...

    Cross country midwinter trip on Blizzaks

    Having lived in the CO Mtns for decades I used to run snow tires to AZ and other dry places without any issues. You will experience a little more road noise and possibly a little longer stopping distance on dry pavement. There will be a little more tire wear when the temps get above 50-60 and...

    Riders Etiquette, "The Salute"

    I do a lot of cycling so I wave to bicyclists also as an approval of their activity. It reminds me I need to get some exercise also. Sometimes they wave back, probably thinking, damn, I wish I was on that machine.:lecturef_smilie:

    Thoughts on Pedal Commander vs Pedal Box - & where's yours mounted?

    I have the Pedal Box from Martin. Easy and fast ordering and no problems since installing. I double tape the holder to the center post when running it externally and can hide the device inside the right speaker grill when I want it out of sight. Can change the setting on my phone in that case. I...

    2015 - Statistics on Motorcycle Fatalities of Syder Ryders?

    When I last had a 2 wheeler I bought an Alpinestars Tech-Air 5 vest. Some good illustrations of this and other airbag vests on YouTube. Very thankful I had it on last summer on a trip when a deer darted out near Pagosa Springs, CO. He jumped just before frontal impact and took off my right...

    2021 RT Seat won't release - Any ideas/hints?

    I kinda like that idea. Better than taking off all the tupperware. I can't see a safety issue with that since the opening faces forward.
