• 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.

    2011 RT Weekend Project BajaRon Sway Bar and Bump Skid

    F.Y.I. the dealer service dept. charged 1.5 hours each for the tire mount/balance, flush the brake fluid/fix the brake failure error, and the laser alignment... so $132 for each task. So $132 seems OK for me for the laser alignment, and $132 to mount the rear... total bill $463.84. I'd do it...

    2011 RT Weekend Project BajaRon Sway Bar and Bump Skid

    Got her back from the shop. Kuhmo rear tire mounted and installed with Dynabeads. Laser alignment done. Brake failure problem fixed. She really rides nice now. Tomorrow is perfect riding weather. Anybody in CLT up for a ride? Think I’ll ride to Morrow Mountain.

    2011 RT Fog Lamps not lit Headlights work fine

    Thanks Snowbelt. I REALLY appreciate the quick reply. You are correct, as I was flipping the switches on the Console, the engine was not on... So I will definitely start it and test hit that rocker on the far right. But I have to ask, I've looked all over on the Main Menu on this site on the...

    2011 RT Fog Lamps not lit Headlights work fine

    So, I come to the well again, for help with this temperamental femme fatale. I despise electrical problems... as much or more than mechanical problems. I'm a computer guy not an electrician or mechanic. 2011 RT: I think these are fog lamps - not designed to be on all the time. They don't...

    Need to get a dog

    I know this is a a Spyder forum, but humor me... I just finished Jack Reipe’s column in my new issue of BMW Owner News... funny guy... if you can get past the K bike/R bike racism... Anyway he tells the story about this woman side car mechanic that teaches her dog to fetch a crescent wrench. I...

    2011 RT Weekend Project BajaRon Sway Bar and Bump Skid

    I decided, that since I am replacing the tires and getting the laser alignment, I will punish myself some more, by trying to install a BajaRon Sway Bar and Bump Skid on my 2011 RT. She's still awaiting the rear tire install - the two fronts are done - see other thread - went with the...

    What size car tires do I need to fit a 2010 RTS?

    The local Discount Tire at Northlake mounted the Bridgestone Potenza’s on the front and put in the Dyna Beads. I don’t think they’ll do the rear because of the hitch... doesn’t it go through the axle? So I’ll have to wait on the rear for the Yoko to be mounted until mid August when it goes to...

    What size car tires do I need to fit a 2010 RTS?

    Iron horse in Monroe is where I got the appointment. They’re set to look at the brake failure warning, mount, balance, laser alignment. I’ll check with discount tire and see if they’ll mount and balance the fronts. I Also have dynabeads on order for the front and back. It’s gonna be...

    What size car tires do I need to fit a 2010 RTS?

    Thanks Steve. I don’t really care about speedo accuracy... my only concern is, will the tires fit the rims and fit the RT without causing any modifications. I think I’m ok on the fronts, they’ll be the same size. But the rear has me scared to spend the $$ for a different size tire. Does the...
