• 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.

    Seal vs. Web Floor Boards

    weboards are great ! Some one who says weboards vibrate and put their feet to sleep must have something wrong with the machine or they were installed wrong. We rode our 2014 Rt 4200 in 3 weeks last summer and thank God for Weboards and being able to move my feet around to different positions so...

    Octane does matter

    We carried octane booster on our three week vacation just in case we could not get premium fuel. The 14 Rt did not seem to mind when we had to use the octane booster.The power stayed the same and the mileage did not vary more than 1 mpg and that was the terrain pulling a trailer in the...

    BajaRon anti-sway bar

    Sway bar plus We added a Ron's sway bar shortly after purchasing our 14 RT. Then adding 5 lbs of air to each front tire stiffened the sidewalls of the tires ,an old stock car trick. That made our RT handle like it should have from the factory. The front tires have 9K miles on them and look like...

    Slingshot by Polaris.......

    Warranty on them? Since they are sourcing their engines from GM .Can you go to the Chevy dealer for work? Or are the Polaris Mechanics going to have go to GM for training? Just seems strange that they would pick an econo box engine for their high end three wheel whatever you want to call it...

    I believe the RT stereo is junk, all feedback wanted.

    stereo on14 RT The radio on our 14 RT is not anywhere close to the one we had on our 2012 Victory Cross Country. That System could pick up signals that would stay for many miles. was much easier to use than the Spyder. We just completed a 3 week trip and after about the second day,we just...

    absolute total towing capacity

    yeah I know about the tail wagging the dog I had an Aspen camper and pulled it with a VTX 1800.The trailer was loaded down and no problem. I see Honda Civics and Toyota Corolla's pulling the same camper with 4 people in the car .The power to weight ratio has to better in a 14 Spyder than one...

    absolute total towing capacity

I know that I will have to install a brake controller for the trailer and fit some mirror extensions.Has anybody tried this yet? I pulled it around the neighbor hood...

    SM or SE? What and why did you choose?

    Have ridden for almost 50 years and embraced the technology of the automatic.Did not feel like I lost any control of the Spyder.When I want to downshift myself ,I can .When I don't want to I don't. It is a hoot in the mountains to work that paddle shifter.

Seems to reduce entrance roll over.Once the RT takes a set you can really get after it coming...
