• 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.

    Check Engine/Check Transmission

    Really? That's what the guy told me. Maybe he didn't understand me or told me a price for something else.

    Check Engine/Check Transmission

    Called up the dealer and they said the paddle shifter is about 45$ so wouldn't be a bad first step if I get that nasty message again.

    Check Engine/Check Transmission

    Yes you are right, did mention that I have an SE5 so now I see why you'd suggest that. Just caught me off guard since we've been talking about the position sensor. Thank you for the suggestion.

    Check Engine/Check Transmission

    Thank you for that explanation. I did my service recently myself so it's good to keep that in the back of my mind that a) I can still ride by spyder (even though been riding it for 2 days and got no issue) and b) let the dealer handle it.

    Check Engine/Check Transmission

    Paddle shifter??? What. We been talking about the gear position sensor.... why would the paddle shifter be an issue and cause check engine / check transmission light?

    Check Engine/Check Transmission

    Update: called the dealer. Like Mike said, part is 135$. Spoke to the service department, they want me to drop the bike off and then they will let me know the price. Which I think is a load of crap... why can't they just let me know how much would it cost.

    Check Engine/Check Transmission

    Hello All, So I took the bike out yesterday night when I got home. It sat for about 3 hours and then we went to the hospital (wife's uncle had an open heart surgery). No signs reported back / forth. I mean I was changing gears at 5 K rpm and doing it slowly and carefully (very scared on every...

    Check Engine/Check Transmission

    Lastly, Before this issue happened, I had gotten on the interstate and accelerated fast and shifted up rapidly..... could any of these be an issue? Lol just trying to figure out if it was something I might have done?

    Check Engine/Check Transmission

    Also reading the forums it says it could also be "ground strap is missing" I'll let you guys know once I go home what's the deal. How much would this cost if I had to go to the dealer?

    Check Engine/Check Transmission

    I just went to the bike and try to "force" the issue, and I took it up to 5th gear in the parking lot and no go. All good. I'll see hopefully when I'm going hope the issue comes up so that I can get a code. I've been riding for a few days now and nothing and until today. Could it be me riding...
