• 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.

    Blind spot indicators on newer vehicles

    Cagers are too dependant I too have read this article in the AMA magazine. Some would say technology is taking out the need for drivers to be responsible for their actions while driving. It was pointed out to me that in the 80s, when it was made mandatory for motorcycles headlight to be on...

    2010 RT stalled, restarted, stalled and now will not start

    Update... I borrowed a trailer to take my Spyder to the dealership two weekends ago. When I took it in I was expecting a call form them, to say: my display was fried, my ECU was fried, my recently installed ignition switch was fried and / or my battery was fried. Well I was wrong on all four...

    2010 RT stalled, restarted, stalled and now will not start

    Voltage drop Thanks brusier, I tried this, no voltage drop when the key is turned. No voltage drop at the fuse box when the key was turned also. I did notice that when I had the battery charger on, the voltage read 12.73 V. As soon as I removed the leads, the voltage started dropping one one...

    2010 RT stalled, restarted, stalled and now will not start

    Change battery. Ronsam, Thanks, I plan to have the battery replaced when I take the bike back to the dealership. Jumping a weak battery should allow me to start the bike. I tried this, and I cannot get any life out of the dash, nor any of the systems that work when the key is turned. For...

    2010 RT stalled, restarted, stalled and now will not start

    battery was replaced a year ago. As I understand it, a battery at rest should have a voltage of at least 12.6 V. I My charger shows the battery at full charge as soon as it turns on. So, bad battery? But even at 12.17 V, I should still get the display to power up? A few weeks before this...

    2010 RT stalled, restarted, stalled and now will not start

    Thanks for the hints on where to look Thanks for the information, I've been taping, priming and painting all day. I was in the process of removing the left lower panel last night while waiting for AMA roadside assistance to come on line. I was almost there, but was foiled by the last torx...

    2010 RT stalled, restarted, stalled and now will not start

    I know I don't post a lot on the forums. Normally I can find what I need here and fix the bike myself or at least know what to tell my mechanic what might be wrong. But I'm lost on what my 2010 RT SM5 did and is now doing. Yesterday afternoon, the temperatures were in the 50s and we decided to...

    Key won't depress and open seat nor frunk

    Key will depress, but not turn to the right. I had a good look at the ignition switch, but could not see where the problem was. The cables looked intact, so I did the only thing I could. Admit defeat and put it all back together and took it to the dealer so my mechanic can fix it. Thanks...

    Key won't depress and open seat nor frunk

    Spyder it a 2010, RT AC, SM5. Long story, but the end result was I over stuffed the frunk trying to put someone else's gear on my bike, I got the key to turn left to open the frunk, had to wrench it hard down an left to finally spring the latch and finally got it open to repack the frunk...

    Tires....a.g.a.i.n

    MC Tires I had to replace my the Kuhmo tire before the trip to Spyderfest. My dealership, who installed the Kuhmo tire for me 17,000 miles ago, tried to order, through their distributors the Kuhmo and then the Falken tires. They were not available, so, since I needed a tire now, I had them...

    First Orange screen

    Parking Brake I've had this happen 4 times in the past. Twice at the owners event. The parking brake cable came off its pulley. Have the dealer put some cable lubricant on the parking brake cable, both at the pulley, and at the wheel to stop this from happening. If you wanted to do this...
