• 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.

    Removing battery 2014 rts

    Just replaced mine on a 2016 ltd The battery died about two weeks ago. Tried to charge it but no luck. Heat came in with humidity so it sat after trying to charge it up. Came out pretty easy but I didn't find this thread until afterward. The earlier advice would have been good as far as...

    How do I access the cable adjusters for the side bags? My cables have stretched!

    That's where I'm stuck. How do I get the left saddlebag open to get to the screws to take the panel off. I used the OPs methods except for the cursing and it hasn't popped open. I've hoped that bouncing around on the road after fooling with it would pop it but no luck.

    Unexpected Hitchhiker

    A couple weeks ago I had just started out and at the last second I saw a chipmunk trying to get out of my way. I did a late maneuver to try to avoid catching him, but was pretty sure he became road kill. I was just going to the post office and back so I slowed down to see if I got him, feeling...

    Unexpected Hitchhiker

    Gypsy, you're not the fellow I met at Blackman's with the new Corvette are you? I did a break me in from outside Austin, Tx, up to outside Dallas, Arkansas, Tennessee (up into the twisties and the Smokeys), NC, VA, Maryland WV and back to PA. I stopped at Blackman's on my way home to get the...

    Windshield & Parking Break not working Spyder RTS

    The final result was a bit disheartening. Nothing broke either electrical or mechanical. They cleaned some parts and connectors and it worked so they said. I didn't even get a straight answer on how to disable the parking brake from the rear brake assembly, but I found this video while the...

    Windshield & Parking Break not working Spyder RTS

    I didn't do any of the checking, just watched the mechanic strip off almost all the tupperware on the front end. He loosened up the parking brake by loosening a bolt on a circular device that held the PB cable. I thought for sure that he could have accomplished the same thing at the rear brake...

    Windshield & Parking Break not working Spyder RTS

    I had a parking brake issue yesterday on my 2015 RT limited. The brake wouldn't turn off. You could hear the relay click, but nothing. They sent a fellow out today and he spent two hours getting the brake released. Is it possible the WPM module is what failed?

    Shifting into 1st gear failure

    I found a dealer within eight miles of my hotel, stopped in and they graciously did the 3K maintenance on the spot. I was just hoping to get the oil changed and take care of the rest when I got home. I don't know if the oil was low or, as I said, operator error, but no problems the rest of the...

    Shifting into 1st gear failure

    I'm a newbie so its probably operator failure but..... I've had my 2015 RT Limited for two days. It had 2,400 miles on it, now gas close to 3,200. On three or four stops, I went to put it into 1st gear after starting it and nothing. I found that if I put it in reverse and back up a bit, it...
