• 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.

    Hot Day's Ride

    We also took a ride on Saturday, left San Ramon at 1:00 p.m. headed to Pinole for a 'Blue Star Mom's' support event. It was pretty warm by then, and the Spyder was affected a bit, some sputter, popping, hesitation etc. We returned to San Ramon around 4:00, temp read 104, and the symptoms...

    Sissy Bar Bag / Tail Bag

All of the pockets expand as needed. I purchased from Nate at New Enough, in Texas. He was very helpful...

    My hand hurts worse!!!!!

    I often find my throttle hand getting numb and tingly, which I figure might be due to me gripping a bit too tightly. I have been experimenting with some old mountain bike gloves. No fingers, which works well on warm days, and just enough padding in the palms to help alleviate the numbness issue.

    Lost my best friend

    Very sorry to read about the loss of your great friend. As I get older, I find myself outliving some of my very best four-pawed friends as well. We are a very pet friendly family (even the spiders & crickets) get set free. I like to feel that even with all the pain of the loss, I think knowing...

    Speedo error

    Speedo On a recent trip, I took advantage of our caravan, by driving along side the family car on the freeway. At a speed of 70 mph, we were within 2 mph of each other. Up until this crude test, I was thinking my Spyder was off by 5-7 mph.

    Have room for another Spyder Lover???

    Hi all, I am a Spyder owner in Northern California. I found your site recently, and have been reading with great interest, many helpful hints, mod-info, and general comments. I really enjoy the spirit of helpfulness among the fellow owners, and those that are curious but still "on the fence"...
