• 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.

    Female Riders (Stats)

    Chas, I have ridden with my husband on his Kawasakis for years and became very tired of being bored on the back. I got my license about 5 years ago and bought a 500 Vulcan. Because I am vertically challenged, keeping the bike upright at stop signs was an issue. I have always wanted a little...

    Tips on buying?

    That happened to me at a dealership when I was looking for my Spyder. My husband was there and the salesman talked to him and I could have been a fly on the wall. There was a younger salesman there, who did spend some time with me, but, it was too late. I thanked him for at least talking to...

    Pain in my hands

    I have had my 2011 Spyder RT for about 2 months and am having a blast riding it! The problem I am having is pain in my hands. I am 5'2" and wondering if the angle on the handle bars is right and if anyone else has had the same issue and how you overcame it. I take Tylenol before we leave on...

    Turn signal question

    I bought a 2011 RT about 2 weeks ago, my first Spyder!! It is SO much fun to ride on the variety of roads that we have in our area.
