• 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.

    Eric Buell... let him do one

    i was under the impression that the 998 being used in the spyder now is very similar to what was designed and used in the aprilia tuono, rsv and caponord lines... maybe Santa will free up the 1125 from HD. jus sayin keep the dream alive.

    rented spyder

    yeah we thought about that... biggest downside: price. she did like the idea of a bigger seat and also liked the seat on the hd trike, it feels like there is more "under her" which is a good false sense of security. but there also seems to be a great deal of options for bringing her chair along...

    The engine that should come in the sport model

    without having brp reinvent the wheel they have a decent motor that was built and developed for the buell 1125r... just as the 990 was used for the aprilia rsv1000r and tuno and tuned down for the added weight of the spyder, im sure the former buell motor could work as well (unless they are...

    oh no dont get me wrong i had a blast and it works perfect for the girl and i... the cluster did not deter me just caused me to go "huh... i dont get it... but who cares" she likes it due to the lack of lean like a bike (she is in a wheelchair). and looks like there are plenty of options for...
