• 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.

    Spyders in the Smokies Cancellation

    Due to a family medical crisis, I must cancel my reservation. Seems like everytime I have planned to come to the mountains and ride with a group in the past three years, something major has come up forcing cancellation of the trip. Unfortunately, this year is no different. I wish all of you...

    "Touring Cover"

    BRP Spyder Cover The answer to your question is yes. I the BRP outdoor cover for my SE5, and I have an F1 Slider windshield (the "shorter" one) installed. With the slider portion down, the cover will cover the entire bike nicely. If I leave the slider extended, the cover still fits, but...

    Run Forrest Run

    Mobile to Pensacola is approximately 60 miles. Pensacola to Tallahassee is right at 200 miles, and Tallahassee to I-75 (if using interstate all the way) is about 130 miles. Then South on I-75, I want to say it is about 185 miles to the Tampa area, so figure from that as far as a day's driving...

    "Girl" needs help with negotiating pricing

    Hi! Bought my SE5 through Jax Power Sports, and thought I paid a bit more than some other places. Since then, First Coast Suzuki in St Augustine, and Daytona Fun Machines have also become dealers. You might check their prices as comparison for an equivalent bike, or do as I did, which was do...

    Is there anyone on here from the Jax area?

    Hastings, Florida here. I live in Hastings, but commute every day to Jax for work. So far, my Spyder riding (as well as my other bike riding) has been kept to a minimum due to weather, budget constraints, etc. Just made arrangements to take her in for the 600 mile check ( a little late) in St...
