• 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.

    Who Dat?

    Yesterday, I saw a large group of Harley Riders on Route 23 being led by a gentleman on a bright yellow RT-S. They ended up at a local watering hole, Gibby's Restaurant & Sports Bar, in Circleville. Was that anyone from central Ohio Spyderlovers or Ohio Spyder Ryders? :doorag: :ohyea:

    Collective Brain Storming for Header Routing.

    CG Taurus I was looking at Doc Doru's CG Taurus on Facebook. It appears to have more open area around the engine. Airflow? ... https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=578521565533943&set=a.301317716587664.80410.100001283157402&type=1&ref=nf

    Collective Brain Storming for Header Routing.

    Let me start off by saying, I do not have a Spyder to use as a reference. I would like to appeal to the Spyderlovers technical community for brainstorming ideas on how to better route the headers outside the Tupperware. If we could have some pictures of a naked Spyder it would help. Hot rodders...

    Another twist on three wheels

    I stopped at Micky D's this morning for some biscuits and gravy. A a guy pulled in beside me on a Bergman 650 trike. I struck up a conversation with him. He said the conversion is a Topak (SP). I asked him how he liked it. He said it doesn't handle the curves very well and was somewhat hard to...

    Foglight Nacelle Question?

    I guess my question is "Can air enter through the Nacelle slot into the engine area? I used to be pretty decent in Visio and Autosketch. (am I dating myself as old or what?) I don't have it on my Mac. I might be able to take some Spyder pictures and scan them in, then literally cut and paste...

    Foglight Nacelle Question?

    This has probably been discussed a hundred times. Does temporarily removing the foglight nacelles improve airflow under the Tupperware? :dontknow: I remember someone suggesting putting small fans in the nacelle pods. Did this ever pan out, and was it considered a non workable idea? :dontknow:

    Ongoing ST heat Mods

    Would it seem logical to relocate the cat converter back to the muffler and outside the body panels? I think this question has been previously raised. :dontknow:

    new lazer alingment

    Great explanation! Thank you so much! This will clear up a lot of the confusion regarding alignment and the loosy goosy feeling on the 2013 models. This has been an enlightening and educational thread. This raises another question. Should every dealer be required to have an alignment system...

    new lazer alingment

    From factory to dealer alignment question In that the Spyders are laser aligned at the factory, does the dealer merely put the tires on when it comes out of the crate or does he have to do an alignment check as well?

    new lazer alingment

    Is BRP aware of this product? Have you talked to or been approached by a BRP company representative about applying this tool to their assembly line process? If they haven't already, they should consider using your product. The benefits I think would be mutual.

    Battery Connections ... How can BRP make them better?

    We're always hearing about checking the battery connections when troubleshooting. There's the infamous spinning ground lug I seem to have heard of many times. How can BRP make the basic battery and ground connections better? What about another switched accessory buss as well? Comments...

    Rotted Vacuum lines? Purge Valve?

    I have been reading a number of reports on SL about rotted vacuum lines. Are the rotted lines causing stalling. Are the rotted lines due to heat? Please enlighten me on how they work with the fuel system? Also I'm reading about bad purge valves? Pardon my ignorance, what is the function of the...
