• 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.

    RT pulling to the right

    Hi Johnny, Have the dealer check the steering sensor to be sure it is centered. If not it will pull no matter what you do. Mine came from the factory a bit off... How did you guys fare out from the rains? JT

    Wow I have been super busy... finally getting the NHR Carrier to the top of the plate dispenser! The new press brake works great and I can now make precision bends in 11ga sheet metal. That is V5, yep I've built 5 versions before I was 1000% happy with the design and function. Fixing to drill...

    Annual Kentucky Lake / Barkley Spyder Ride 2016

    Connie, For me and I'm sure many others this ride is all about good friends, good times, good rides. The door prizes are OK but not a reason for someone to attend. This is the only event that is all about the Spyder Riders and having a good time and seeing some neat things, seeing old friends...

    Spyder Pulls To The Right

    Is the tire pressure exactly the same on both front tires? When I first got my Spyder it pulled to one side, the tech said your tire pressures were not the same so I came up with the Dual Fill. Still had the problem so the tech checked the steering sensor and it was not centered... he reset it...

    Adding to Switch Cluster

    Pam, I used a dremel and cut then check the fit and keep cutting till the width was correct then worked on the length of the slot. Just take your time. Removing a side panel will make it much easier to pass the wire to the battery. JT

    Side compartments stuck - Please help!

    If a push on the front of the side compartments while pulling the lever does not open it then open the trunk and with a flashlight look down each hole to see if the cable is connected. You can see it move as you pull the lever. My left saddle bag will only open if I pull the lever then give a...

    That's a pretty good test of the hitch, that would be 60 pounds of gasoline not counting the tank etc. JT
