• 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.

Anyone tried Slime in the Rear wheel? How did it work?

It looks like the consensus is that Slime is a no-go for the Spyder. I am using Ride-On motorcycle formula because can't find the auto formula. I started using Ride-On because of endorsements I found on this forum a while back and I like it so far. Anyone had any balance issues, leak failures with Ride-On, or any other issues?
 
I used slime in my ST1300 for many years. I stopped when the dealer showed me the corrosion of the inside of the alloy wheel - particularly around where the bead seals. It was rough, and resulted in a gradual leak, so the tyre always needed inflating to the correct pressure every few days. Perversely , the slime did not prevent these leaks ! Now, each tyre change, they have to clean up the inside of the rims and paint on some rim sealant.
 
I do not bother to balance the General Altimax RT45's I put on the rear of my Spyders, that is three tires on three different Spyders. All run smooth.
