• 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.

    2012 Spyder RT-S SM5 Gas Mileage Chart

    Haha, 100% this! We have a Spyder and a Triumph Rocket III. Fuel economy is not clearly a priority for this recreation. (I do have a PHEV car though, for daily use...) Although range can be an issue when we are in the boonies... -- Posted from my iPhone using the "Tapatalk" app.

    2012 Spyder RT-S SM5 Gas Mileage Chart

    I use Fuelly (via the GasTracker+ app on my iPhone) for all my vehicles. Also - 80mph is really fast when considering fuel economy, the Spyder is not aerodynamic at all. From Wikipedia article on drag: The power needed to push an object through a fluid increases as the cube of the velocity. A...

    Another intro - new RT-S in the family

    We started the farkle planning before the purchase of the Spyder... We want to get some miles to figure out prioritization. We did add the factory driver backrest - it's nice but I am not a fan of how it fits through the hole in the seat, the posts are seemingly too far to the rear and kind of...

    A note on tire compounds.

    If you don't specify any specific color - then it works with any app or theme. If you specify a color, then your color may conflict with a given theme. Your original post had the tag COLOR=#0000ff which forced the blue text. -- Posted from my iPhone using the "Tapatalk" app.

    A fuel Question

    Any vehicle built in the last decade will have zero issues with ethanol up to 10% - as long as you are driving the vehicle. For fuel storage the concern is that ethanol absorbs more moisture than gasoline. The way this predominantly happens is condensation on the inside of the tank. I have...
