• 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.

    Do I really need to replace front & rear Brake pads together? Is BUDS necessary?

    It needs to be connected to BUDS only for the brake fluid flush when flushing the main unit VCM (if I called it correct name?) You can replace both sets of front pads or the rear pads when due, at different times if needed. Sometimes even a rookie tech will get it wrong.

    Is this noise caused by a bearing?

    How is your belt tracking? Go forward 300 ft, stop, & check the belt tracking at rear pulley. Is it off the left side some? Since you installed a front pulley, did you get the adjusters on rear swingarm back in correct fitment? If belt is off to the left, you can bet squealing/rubbing from the...

    Tires... again - any feedback on Kumho Rear, Kenda Kanine Fronts?

    For those that want Kanine's people are reporting they have been backordered for many months. I don't use OEM Kenda or Kanine. Have currently Federal Formosa on fronts. I'm going with Vredestein on front next

    Spyderlovers - Facebook - Or Both?

    Been a webpage fan since March 2017 here. Just joined the Facebook site about 1 yr. ago. There is more misinformation on the facebook site, than here. We have a lot of VERY knowledgeable members here in different aspects of Spyder. So much good knowledge that I have never had to start a thread...

    New Altimax RT45 225/60R-15 rubbing on belt on left turns

    from the writing, and tire size you installed is 225 wide, most have used the 215 wide. so thats a bit wider, but will run IF the belt is moved away from flange. the right side adjuster will move the tire to right some. it doesn't appear in pic that belt is actually riding against tire. you...

    '22 RT starting slowly after sitting on tender - replacement Battery?

    What is missing from instructions here is charge with 1-2 amp charger for about 18 hrs. That is what my paperwork said (bought new just 1.5 weeks ago). That charger is considered a "slow" charger, and is best for a new battery. Slow charge is better initial charge

    Anyone else dealing with this sort of Gas Mileage?

    OR...... you forgot to put petcock back on "run" after fill up and was left on "reserve" and when you went to switch it, motor was dead!!!

    '22 RT starting slowly after sitting on tender - replacement Battery?

    I would say you missed part on the instructions. Should use a 1 or 2 amp charger for 18 hrs or so. You had a bottle supplied with battery, that when bottle electrolyte is put in and cap pressed on, that is NOT charged to 75-80%. A slow charge is the best way to fully charge a new battery. I...

    2024 RTL display and other items failed

    BATTERY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're lucky to get back home. They have been installing cheap Chinese batteries for a while. Plus, maybe your dealership didn't properly charge battery on assembly. A 1 or 2 amp charge for 18 - 24 hrs is necessary. Anyhow, you're under warranty, so you should be able...

    My 2021 Ryker was missing a weld on the frame

    Did the pipe move when bumped with a hammer, like just checking to see if WASN"T welded and would move? Too late now... My guess would see more of a separation/seam if not welded a little bit and ground down. If you have any Ryker friends, might want to look at theirs too.

    Is it normal for the Belt to travel across the rear sprocket?

    1/4" is a bit too much. Spec is 1-5mm, which is about 3/16"; as long a belt is not OFF the left side of pulley it will be OK. You could bring it in closer by adjusting the RIGHT side tensioner. Backing up is NOT the way to check it, only moving forward and check it, so you're doing that...

    Anyone else dealing with this sort of Gas Mileage?

    yeah, common problem for new riders/owners. I think tank is 6.9 gal. But you can insert the spout fully at first until you get a click off, then barely have the nozzle in, and use a bunch of mini squeezes until the gas level comes up to vent slits. If you do this, then you can get 200 miles on a...
