• 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.

    Your thoughts on using the hitch as a tie down??

    I would not trust the hitch on a Spyder for a tie point. Best is to strap around the wheels, like the car haulers.

    Any thoughts on battery replacement? Change now or at failure?

    Buy an unfilled battery. Don’t fill or charge it till you need it. Buy a jump pack and keep it in the Spyder. When it gets to the point where you have to use the jump pack to start the Spyder a few times, fill and charge your new battery and replace.

    Tire Pressure Science

    Yes. Start there (18 on rear). Drive for 30 min or more to get tires warmed up. If you see 4 psi increase warm over cold you’re golden. Less than 4psi increase you are over-inflated, and vice-versa.

    Best place for GoPro mounting on a Ryker?

    I went with a helmet mount because so much of what I want to see is off to the side, not down the center line.

    Recommended Go Pro settings for night time video?

    I’ve got the Hero 9 and haven’t been able to make it work well in low light. I guess even the new 10 isn’t great. I guess the iPhone 12 does better video in low light.

    Ferry Crossings - do Spyders need to strap down?

    We crossed to Washington Island in Door County last month. Didn’t have to tie down the F3-t. We were packed pretty tight, and the water was lumpy. The Jeep Cherokee in front of me was moving about 6” front to back with the waves. It was obvious he just put it in park without using the parking...

    Old ears are getting tired and . . .

    I’ve not heard of a way to send the Spyder audio to Bluetooth. I don’t think there is an aux out or headset out connection on the radio either. It’s all about sending other audio sources TO the radio. My ears are shot from farming, so I used to use wired earbuds to my iPhone. I have the XM app...

    CAN AM auto cycle slingshot competitor?

    The main issue with the Honda was that it had a solid Rear Axle. To turn you had to lean to the outside of the turn to unload the inside wheel. If they had put a differential in, they would have solved most of the stability issues.

    Radio antenna - anyone changed to get better reception?

    The nice thing about the app is it uses cell data. You don’t need a clear view of the satellite.

    Radio antenna - anyone changed to get better reception?

    I think the only real solution is to get the SiriusXM app for your phone. Always perfect reception!
