• 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.

    Winter storage?

    Thank you!!! So considering the Spyder will be storaged in a place where no one goes and the cable will not likely be moved, can I just use the alligator clamps on the jumper terminals, close the seat and cover, and then should I leave it plugged in all winter? Thanks!

    Winter storage?

    I know this is gonna sound dumb but I looked under the seat and on my RS-S the battery poles are not accessible- what do I have to remove and will I still be able to cover the bike/put down the seat with the charger attached? Thanks!

    Ultra-touring windshield?

    I ride my Spyder to work twice a week, a 220 miles round trip and coming back at night I get cold even in the summer, even with motorcycle jacket and good layers plus the wind is just killing me. I am 5'10, how much of a difference will the ultra touring make and is it worth the $350? I have an...

    First time ryder needs tips

    Thanks Thanks everyone, great advice all across! I actually took the BRP course (one day) but it was still short for a novice. My plan is to drive locally (I live in the country) for at least a month before I hit the city or take longer trips. I will keep the handle bars in minds, I HAVE been...
