• 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.

    2022 RTL oil change analysis results

    I agree fuel dilution reduces viscosity. I'm not too worried about 2% but will not go too long between changes until I have more analysis data. (Being an engineer - I've got to have data!!!) Very few people get their oil analyzed, but there was a couple of people who did, and they also had fuel...

    Brake fluid in Reservoir & above the seal - anyone else seen this?

    Photos of the fluid from the reservoir and wheel circuits. Definitely will have to check the reservoir fluid for contamination a lot more often!! Speed Bleeders worked great. Photo order is Reservoir, LF, Rear, and RF.

    Brake fluid in Reservoir & above the seal - anyone else seen this?

    Thanks Ron That was the first flush after purchase in 2022. The cap had never been removed from when it was installed at the factory, unless the dealer opened it for a pre-delivery inspection. Speed bleeders installed and all circuits flushed clear. Jim

    Brake fluid in Reservoir & above the seal - anyone else seen this?

    Doing a 2-year brake fluid flush and when I took the cover off, there was some fluid above the seal. I didn't expect to find fluid here, which seems to indicate the reservoir was not sealed tight. The fluid in the reservoir was quite dark, which indicates it was exposed to the air. I used a...

    When you put your Spyder up on 3 ramps, do you lose the back one?

    A pair of auto ramps for the front wheels. I made a wooden one for rear wheel and back it up the ramps. Glued some sandpaper on wooden ramp so rear tire would not spin when backing up.

    Oil analysis @ 3 years & 9500 miles.

    Interesting about your fuel dilution results. I was surprised to find that my dilution was 3% at my first oil change. I took it for a run of serval Km and it was fully warmed up, but maybe I should have run further. Will know when I change it again later this year. Amsoil 10w40 in it now.

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

    Bought the Yuasa YTX24HL-BS Battery to replace the original Haijiu 300 cca in my 2022 RTL before it left me stranded. Adding the acid is very easy and ensures you have a fresh battery. Left it about 4 hrs then charged at about 0.8 amps on my Optimate 3 slow charger. -

    Recall done. Not sure they put the right sprocket on.

    Just to clarify- after the short run straight ahead and stop- is the belt on the rear 1-2 mm from the inside flange or is the gap larger?
