• 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.

    What kind of milage should I expect from a Vredestein rear tire?

    I do have have a tire depth gauge and that's why I was asking the question. I think the center area is a little worn but still has some life. Peter, Thanks again. I will look for those markers when I can move the bike around the garage. We are getting a little bit of blowing snow tonight.

    What kind of milage should I expect from a Vredestein rear tire?

    Peter, thanks for all of your information. There are times when I am on long road trips and it is hot (New Mexico, Arizona) and I do 70-75 for hours at a time. I also carry two dry bags with camping gear and the frunk and trunk are loaded but nothing over 550 lbs. There is some wear in the...

    Not even close yet. I have been running 20 lbs.

    What kind of milage should I expect from a Vredestein rear tire?

    I have already done a search here but could not find an answer. I run a Vredestein 205/60R15 rear tire on my 2021 RTL. I currently have 21,000 on the tire. The dealer said I need a new rear tire but I disagree. It looks like it has plenty of life left. For anyone running this tire what kind of...

    Where do you store your Cell phone??

    I put my phone in the trunk and connect with the USB cable. I ride with a Garmin XT for GPS. I can pair it with my phone and can control my music through the Garmin. I also use a Sena 20S on my helmet. I can make and receive calls through the Sena. Also, if I use the Sena for music, it cuts the...

    1330cc Anyone else had this 'gear change fail' or 'hesitation/vapour lock' problem? Ideas?

    Before any big trip I check the oil. It is always spot on.

    1330cc Anyone else had this 'gear change fail' or 'hesitation/vapour lock' problem? Ideas?

    I have had all my service work done at my dealer at the prescribed time schedule. I was surprised that no codes appeared at all. After listening to others, it looks like it might be a fuel filter or shifter sensor. I think I am going to go ahead and have them run the system test and go from...

    1330cc Anyone else had this 'gear change fail' or 'hesitation/vapour lock' problem? Ideas?

    I have a 2021 Spyder RTL with 28,700 miles. I live in Denver, and I went to Sturgis last weekend. The Spyder ran perfectly the whole weekend. Coming back to Denver it was really hot through Wyoming (around 100 degrees). We got close to Denver and hit the abortion known as I-25 with 5:00 traffic...

    Perhaps an edit is due.

    A thought on service

    I believe they were bought out by Schomp here in Denver. Schomp owns a number of car dealerships in town.

    A thought on service

    I have read here a number of times the thoughts of those who are not happy with dealer service in their area. I thought I would share my experiences. I live in Denver and bought my 2021 Spyder RTL from Fay Myers in south Denver. I have had all my service work done there. So far I have been very...

    Anyone installed netting inside 2020+ RT Saddle bag to secure contents?

    I bought the saddlebags from spyder pops and they hold all the gear I want. Everything in its place and nothing to fall out when you open the saddlebag door.

    '21+ Radiator Fans not turning off - stuck relay! Blocked grills a cause?

    I think you hit the nail on the head. Even with the grills the bugs were packed in there pretty good.

    '21+ Radiator Fans not turning off - stuck relay! Blocked grills a cause?

    Thanks that's good to know about the relay.

    '21+ Radiator Fans not turning off - stuck relay! Blocked grills a cause?

    I thought so too. I always shut it down even if the fan was running so I was a bit surprised when I came out of the house and it was still running. It tried to shut down for a second or two but would start right back up. I am just glad it was a relay and not a bunch of money.
