• 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.

    in the middle of my first oil change ????

    I switched to the Gold Plug about 30,000 miles ago with no problems. I don't know if this change is really needed I think the original would be fine with the proper Allen socket and a good torque wrench. The Gold plug for the oil tank has a magnet and I don't think the original did, but I don't...

    I have an RT A&C thus no rear speakers. I ran wires from the rear speaker boxes and made my connection under the seat and ran the jack under the Tupperware and out the left in front of the seat.

    Had an accident today....

    Dan it was good to spend time with you at Cowtown, I though your adjuster had died in his SUV, I didn't think he was ever coming out. Your settlement sounds great. Len and Cowtown did a great job taking care of my issue, like they usually do. Be safe and have fun.:congrats:

    Front wheel bearing

    On my 2010 RT with 33,000 miles I have noticed a slight clunk when the wheel is pulled straight out. There is no problem with handling or tire wear, I noticed this when I had the front jacked up and pulled on the wheel. The wheel spins without noise or roughness and I can not see or feel any...

    How much oil should a spyder rt be using

    I use between 4 and 6 oz each 1000 miles. My RT has about 32k and the oil use has not changed since new. The oil use may be determined by riding style and speed, higher rpm may result in more oil use.

    Tips for exhaust?

    I just added the basic tip to my Two Brothers it quiets the sound and has a more mellow tone. The sound to me is more consistent with the nature of the RT. The cost was about $35 and it only took a few minutes to install.
