• 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.

    New law

    I have to think others have seen this at some point, but I'll copy it anyways as it is good. Common Sense Obituary (from London Times, 2009): Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his...

    Buffalo really are dangerous, yeah really

    If I read it right, it sounds like you tried going between the bull and some calves. Never a good idea, with most animals.

    Deal or no Deal

    I had a quote on a new 2012 RS-S SE5 for $17,100 including the dealer crap (freight/prep, etc). ($19,599 MSRP)

    Hydroplaining - Is it an issue?

    And how much would "Nanny" intercede, or attempt to and make things more...unpredictable? That would be my concern: never knowing when she'd be there to slap your wrist, especially if your trying to recover from such an incident, only to make things worse.

    Parking in public...

    I'm sure there's an ambulance chaser somewhere that would try it. People have been injured breaking into houses and sued the owners.

    I want a spyder bad, but looking for input!

    You can return the Spyder if you don't like it. You can't return the children. :joke: :wrong:

    Dealership comments?

    I know there's a thread mentioning dealerships that Spyderlovers have had good things to say about (focused on service). I'm looking at purchasing a Spyder in the very near future (next week maybe). Leaders Marine in Kalamazoo seems to have some deals that dealerships near me can't touch. Any...

    three or 4 wheeler motorcycle

    1. I think I'd be worried it would slip when leaning on wet pavement. 2. IMHO, that would win :firstplace: in an ugly bike contest.

    RS-S SE question

    Yes. The first two guys knew about the SM5 but had no idea about the SE5. The third man in knew about the SE5. As mentioned in another thread , it was the Brake Interlock.

    RS-S SE question

    I see you are in Canada so this might not be useful. According to their website's current inventory, Leaders Marine in Michigan has 1 or 2 "brand new" 2011 RS-S SE5's. However, they list the colors of the 2012 models. It/they are marked down to $16,499 ($3100 off). I've sent them emails to two...

    Vibration...BRP's solution by the "Ostrich method

    This may seem a dumb question (keep in mind I'm Spyder-less for another week or so), but would it be possible to remove the belt, then start the Spyder up and rev the engine to the target RPMS? If you get the same vibrations without the belt on, then it's not the belt, correct? Process of...

    New Paint....All Silver !!!

    I like the look without the fenders. Aside from them protecting the Spyder and yourself, there could also be a legal issue with them being off. In NH (and probably other if not all states), fenders are required to pass state inspection ("Reject if: (b)Any fender is missing or installed in a...

    RS-S SE question

    When I went for a demo ride, the previous tester left the SE5 in 1st gear and shut it off. The guys holding the demo had trouble starting it/getting it into Neutral. The third person called over said, if I recall, it was "Brake Lock". Had to rock it back and forth to get it to release, at that...

    Parking in public...

    Someone should make Spyder seat protectors like these: :yikes: and put a warning sign up: "Sitting on my Spyder without permission can result in several rear damage. Sit at your own risk."

    Caution

    For all we know, the guy that spent his life chiseling away on the calender, passed away when he reached that date. And no one took up the job of continuing the work. :roflblack:

    What's this?

    Purple's been done. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2547/3743278446_2c0767a6e4.jpg But then there's lots of shades of purple... I'm thinking MirraChrome. ;)

    Question??? With all respect.

    I've given it some thought... Someone looking at the Spyder: "Why?" Me: "Exactly." Heh
