• 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.

    I have a brake squeak in my front wheels. Been there since day 1 and I am also that this is fine and that there is nothing wrong. With 1200 miles on it I would hope this wasn't being caused by brake dust. The spyder stops fine with no issues to report.

    Replacement fuel gauge

    No, I haven't done anything to the gauges. I was hoping there was a setting in the display to make the temperature and the gas gauges to come up.

    Replacement fuel gauge

    Mine doesn't. In fact I have no gauges on my display. If there is a way to set them to pop up, please let me know.

    Extreme Heat on 2013 RT

    I just had my 2013 RTS wrapped. Found a slight difference in the excessive heat problem area. It is no quieter as some had suggested. Funny thing happened on the way home from the dealer. I stopped for gas and went to start up when I got a limp home message for excessive heat. I gave the...

    Replacement fuel gauge

    Does anyone know of a replacement for the fuel gauge currently on my 2013 RT-S? The gauge just stinks never showing the right amount of fuel in the tank. I wonder if there is a replacement that will read the fuel more accurately than the one we all have. Anyone have any suggestions or...

    Brake Longevity Question

    squeaking front brakes My RT-S has 1000 miles on it. The front brakes always squeaked . Anyone know what causes that? I understand it when I am first starting a ride but after its warmed up? That doesn't make sense since the brakes are new. This has happened since mile 1.

    Octane does matter

    I run the highest octane I can get in the area I am in. I find a difference. The engine is smoother and the mileage is higher. It's not a huge increase but enough to see the difference.

    Wrapping the exhaust on an RT

    I have been quoted $350 from my local dealer to do the job. The cost is all in the labor with the heat tape costing $40 to $50 (2 rolls). I have an appointment for next Thursday so I will report back to you on how well it works then. Thanks for all the input.

    Wrapping the exhaust on an RT

    For you guy that have done this, how much did it cost? Did anyone go through the dealer to do this? Did it make that big of a difference to make it worth the cost? Tom

    Small oil leak ?

    I honestly don't know what your spyders problem is. I had a situation of a similar leak. Brought it to the dealer and they told me nothing was leaking. I saw the leak. It turned out to be anti freeze from the over flow. Nothing to fix. But that doesn't mean you have nothing wrong. Go to the...

    Slingshot by Polaris.......

    That is a 3 wheeled car no matter what the manufacturer says it is. A stick shift in the middle of the car? How many bikes have you ever seen like this. Besides it has a 2.4 engine in it. My car has slightly more engine. Yes, they will sell a million of them but to me it is still a car with...

    Cleaning

    Thanks Granpa. I posted because post 12 was the only one to use soap and water. It seems like the vast majority uses one product or another. I was questioning why? I used soap and water and had no problems. I thought it might leave streaks. But the spyder came out clean. I was careful not...

    Cleaning

    Does anyone else use soap and water? What are the panels made of that would preclude me from using soap and water? I have dusted my spider with a professional duster for high end cars so far. I think it is time to really clean up the spyder . Or are all the products mentioned here use to make...
