• 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.

    2010 RT Service Manual

    I need a service Manual but in my searches I find several vendors offering their download versions. Or at least I think it is their versions. Haven't found a way to preview the offerings as to detail and clarity of instructions. So my question is which vendor provides the best version. I'm...

    Thanks Don. I've been shopping locally because of thinking it may help to have a relationship when it comes time for service and maintenance. I know where the bike is bought should not be an issue but experience has shown me some dealers do not treat all customers with the same priority. Very...

    Got the price down to 14K but sadly not the out the door price. Jerry Bennett

    Thanks for the help. I did get the price down to 14K but couldn't get the salesman to make that the out the door price. No CB though. It is supposed to be fully serviced before I take delivery Tuesday. I'm not very trusting when it comes to service people I have never dealt with. It is...

    Thanks for the site. More informative than anything I have stumbled across. Answers many of the questions I had been searching and probably some I had not thought of yet. Jerry Bennett

    I did the test ride. Two in fact. One on the 2010 RT and one on the FS-3. I am now on the horns of a dilemma. The FS-3 is outside my budget but really enjoyed the ride. The price on the RT dropped $1K. Anyway I now understand why so many people praise the syder platform. Thanks every one...

    Thanks everyone. Excellent suggestions that never entered my mind. And excellent feedback on the machine itself. Raises my hopes the RT just might be my next ride. I'll post tomorrow afternoon after the test ride how this first timer fared if I don't decide to reschedule for safety reasons...

    I am planning on taking my first ride as in the first ride ever on a 2010 RT SE-5 with Audio and Convenience tomorrow. So I am trying to educate myself on what to be on the alert for. It has about 8500 miles on it. No idea if the previous owner(s) added anything (dealer has it now). The...

    By jove my bank account groans with pain but the RT does lead the pecking order. Not to mention having to convince SWMBO. ;)

    Thanks. The feet forward position vs the upright position is where I am most conflicted. On the wing I had pegs on the engine guard so I could stretch my legs which I have to do fairly often. Then I could move my feet back to the rider pegs. I move around a lot while I am riding. I seldom...

    Thanks Don. I was sitting on 2015 models at a dealer. I live between Dallas and Fort Worth. I have been debating with myself manual vs semi automatic. Getting lazy in my old age. Jerry

    I’ll introduce myself. I am a newbie to the spyder world but not a rider – just educating myself. Early last month I ended a 35 year of on again off again history of two-wheel riding. At present, I am half way into an eight-week surgery recovery period. I am trying to decide if I want to put...
