• 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.

    Is my Battery failing? Or not?

    Thanks for looking Peter, but that's not the most recent messages I was looking for. In this thread that you've linked above, the source of the problem was that the starter had failed. The local dealership replaced it under warranty. The messages I'm trying to find were just posted in May of...

    Is my Battery failing? Or not?

    I posted some interesting info (it was to me at least) regarding the battery on our Spyder, but I can't find the thread to link here. It's unfortunate though because it's very relevant to this conversation. I installed a Battery Tracker Plus device earlier this year before our big trip and it...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Thinking we dodged a bullet. I recently purchased the Battery Tracker +Plus and installed it Friday morning. It showed the Xtreme AGM battery at 12.7 volts and charged level at 83%. The Spyder had been sitting for 5 days without being started or put on a tender, so I recharged it. Over the next...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I called and spoke to Elijah over at Lamonsters Garage on Monday morning to ask if they had any Elka II rear shocks on hand and was very pleased to learn that they did. He took down our weights and our riding preferences, had the shock set AND SHIPPED that same day! UPS had it on my door step...

    Planning a ride - Virginia/W. Virginia rural roads - any experience on these roads?

    We're headed out next month on an extended trip that's spanning 10 states, largely avoiding Interstate highways. I feel good about the routes that I've put together but have a little uncertainty regarding a part of the trip that travels west to east along state and county roads in West Virginia...

    Which of the following Highway Pegs do you recommend?

    I've been hesitant to install a set of these because of my height. At 6'3", when I stretch my legs out straight my feet are well forward of where the pegs would be. I'd be resting my calf or Achilles on the peg and I'm not sure how comfortable that would be. Anyone have experience with that?
