• 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.

    Curious..... anyone thought of Heads up display on their Spyder? Or helmet?

    Bert, Holy wow!!!! That's the most incredible offer I have heard of in a long time! Just talked to the wife about this......She asked...."what does he suggest for the kind I should get?" I said...." I don't know but I will ask!" See how well trained I am?

    Wife loves her heads up display in her car. She asked about an aftermarket for her new ride. I just searched..... and Joel the Biker did an Ebay one for $20-something back in 2018 and apparently liked it. Was wondering if anyone else has or has thought of putting heads up on their rides...

    We live about 2 hours away. Life is so much easier with the new bypasses around Smithfield and Goldsboro. We are right outside Morehead City and right by MCAS Cherry Point. I just told her about the Triangle Spyders and she seems excited! I've ridden Vmax's before but never owned one...

    Thanks Peter! She is trying to get used to the shifting points. I find that she is almost relying on the upshift arrow on the dash a bit too much. For me when I drive it.....I'm still trying to grab the invisible clutch lever on the left and the invisible front brake lever constantly.

    Blueknight.. I literally am on Tire Rack on another tab looking at the Vredestien's because of some of the posts that you have talked about them! They are out of stock right now until 10/28. So still good. I can do the wrenching no problem. I actually told the wife that I get to get new...

    Thanks!!! You are right! The relaxed grip is huge! I start massaging her shoulders when I seeing her shoulders start reaching her ears and she is white knuckling. It's getting further apart . Just happening now in traffic at highway speeds. She just needs more time on the throttle! I...

    Howdy everyone! Wife just bought a new to her 2017 RT with 5k miles about a month ago. Long story short, she had a Kawi Vulcan, dumped it and got burned from the exhaust, afraid to ride again and sold it. She's now back up and willing to try again. She always wanted a Spyder, saw a great...
