• 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.

    Major Exhaust Leak

    If someone has the same problem. Go to the local plumbing supply and get a NoHub band, just leave the rubber insert out and the stainless steel band will cover the broken pipe.

    rumbling exhaust?

    A straight pipe for me. I wanted more sound from my 2012 RT S, so I had a local muffler shop build me a straight pipe, with a stainless steel tip. It looks good and the sound is good, not as loud as a Harley, and no potato potato. Just got back from a 1000 mile trip with my Harley friends and...

    SpyderPops RT Bumpskid

    Bumpskid gap. After installing the Bumpskid, I too didn't like the gap. So I removed it and removed the nubs with a wood chisel. Reinstalled and it looks great. Also I think it improves the handling by smoothing the air flow underneath. I am very pleased with it. Have saved many scrapes from...

    long distance riding and "butt" comfort ........

    Beadrider I have installed Beadriders on my 2 Goldwings and installed one on my 2012 Rt s. I don't care that my buddies claim I stole it from a Taxi. It works great, I just returned from a 1000 miles ride, in two days. No sore butt for me. I can't recommend it highly enough. Great purchase.

    Bumpskid....is it needed?

    Great Investment. I installed the Bumpskid today, I was surprised how much the bottom was scapped in only 800 miles. It was an easy installation. I did remove the ribs along the edges so the plate fits better. it looks good and I think it will improve fuel mileage. On just a short test after...

    Any in the slc area?

    Spyder Lover in Hooper, Utah I bought my new 2012 RT S. Three weeks ago, love it more every day. I hope to meet other riders in the area. The only downside is every time I stop someone I have to tell all about my machine. A lot of them say this is the kind of motorcycle I would like, I hope I...

After test drive still felt a little twitch, I had purchased a pair of magnetic laser levels from Harbor Freight, so I set out to check the toein, it was set a 0". I adjusted it...

    Exhaust

    Straight pipe I wanted to see how my Spyder would sound and run with an open exhaust. I had a local muffler shop make a pipe up for me with a stainless tip. The sound wasn't too loud, I ran it for a couple of days, it wasn't obnoxious, but I guess my age caught up with me and I put the stock...
