• 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.

    How do you determine your head Shape when buying a helmet?

    Trying them on is the only way to know for sure. I've bought my 2 helmets online and both had to be modified even though the measurements and shape was what they recommended. I'll buy local next time.

    Wiring the Chin LED light - is the Black wire Earth, White Live?

    The light you bought isn't the plug and play light that plugs into the harness behind the plate?

    Wondering how many owners do not know this is possible?

    Excellent tip Martin! Four years owning a Spyder RT and did not know this. Been a few times I had to access the frunk while the bike was already running.

    How many times can a Spyder be turned on & off between tries without failure?

    This question reminds me of this...

    My Problem Free time with the RT is over!

    As others have mentioned, a low or bad battery will throw up codes. I was fortunate in that mine didn't before I replaced it. Mine just wouldn't crank over so I replaced it. Last time I bought a bike battery, it cost me around $60. This new one I bought this year was around $150 if I recall...

    Anyone besides me slowing down to Prolong Rides?

    I actually prefer between 30-45 mph. I like the sound of the bike at those speeds, but more importantly, I like being able to take in my surroundings. Going 55 or more, I just can't enjoy the scenery as much because things go by too fast. Don't get me wrong, I do drive the faster interstates...

    Why is the engine braking so Weak?! Should I not use Eco mode?

    I hate ECO mode and have never used it. It makes anything that uses it very sluggish in response. As far as the braking part, I'm not sure how you're braking, whether it be a hard stop, or one where you're rolling up on a stop sign; but I personally do what the conditions ask of me, meaning that...

    Had to wear Gloves for Can Am riding course - Do you wear gloves? Why? Or why not?

    I only wear gloves in the fall and possibly early spring when it's still cool. Other than that, I don't wear them.

    Where do you store your Cell phone??

    I purchased the Carpuride from a member of this forum, so my phone stays on my hip in its holder. Love that Carpuride.

    Jury is still out on my new Airhawk - how hard is it to find the sweet spot?

    My Corbin is the same way. The wings make a big difference in my opinion. The seat is comfortable as well. At least for me it is.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I ran an extension off of the suspension bladder fitting, drilled a hole in the plastic and mounted it so I didn't have to keep removing my 1 piece seat all the time to add air.

    Got a PedalBox, getting VSS Fault & Limp Mode msg - any ideas/fixes?

    I had a PedalBox and it gave me the same limp mode codes. I tried all the suggestions and even tried what PedalBox support told me to do. Nothing fixed the problem so I bought a Pedal Commander, which I have placed under my seat, and so far (knock on wood) after 2 years, I haven't had any issues.

    Slingmods Adjustable Backrest - who has one and what do you think?

    Utopia gets my vote. I have one and love it.

    Got my cup holder

    I have that one but only used it a couple of times. It holds bottles where you can screw in the cap but from first-hand experience, it misses the mark trying to carry my Yeti coffee mug. I had coffee all over the place. I ended up buying a hydration back instead.
