• 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.

    So many complaints about the Spyders. Anyone with no problems?

    First spyder 08 RS. Too many problems to list, pretty much had most of known issues including leaky fuel tank , engine rebuilt twice and was in the shop half the time. I used to tell people it’s the best ride ever when it’s not in shop. Big part of problem was dealers didn’t know what to do when...

    Anyone know if Slingmods Kicker speakers are worth installing? Any other options?

    I don’t think replacing a 4” speaker with another 4” speaker would be worth the trouble - better, but not a whole lot. You need to move more air to get more sound. SSV offer an F3 system with Kicker 6.5" or SSV 6.5" that are easy to mount. That may be what you are referring to also, not a 4”...

    Does the F3 need a new design?

    I definitely want to see a new F3. I don’t like the look of the current models, so I was forced to buy a used RS (my 3rd) again... If I was forced to choose between a Ryker, an F3, or an RT, it would be an RT; but I’m hoping for better looking F3 before this RS kicks the bucket.

    Do I need LED headlamps with built in resistors? Any recommendations?

    I just installed LED headlights and fog lights on my RS, the ZLED's came from Amazon, no issue. Got H7 and H11 of the same brand. Forenner Fahren Upgraded: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CWV1N2GD?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

    What year was the muffler changed to have a separate Cat Converter on an RS?

    I think it may have been error on seller's end. Found an old catalog that had the same muffler with the same part number, and it was for 2013 and up. Seller did post "No hardware included", but that I can get from Home Depot, I would think. And the gasket from BRP if needed.

    What year was the muffler changed to have a separate Cat Converter on an RS?

    I'm sorry. I have a 2015 RSS. If the ebay posting said 2012 and prior model year, it would have made more sense, since it looks like change was made for 2013, but it says 2013 and prior...

    Oh my... lower psi in car tires on Spyder's really works!

    It was to not to start tire side of story, but I have Quatrac's in 165 which I am sure most people here are familiar with in front and a Continental in the rear (I don't remember which one and hate; it came highly recommended but while that may have been good for an RT it's not for my RS!)

    Oh my... lower psi in car tires on Spyder's really works!

    what was the consensus psi? front and back with car tires? I am definitely on aggressive side.

    Oh my... lower psi in car tires on Spyder's really works!

    I've been on here a long time but I could not bring myself to use lower (to me) psi's for car tires on my Spyder, mostly because under-inflation is a cardinal sin in my job; but I finally went to a lower psi and my.... it works! I went to 14 in front and 18 in rear with all car tires (name left...

    Does a leaky Elka rear shock have to be shipped to them?

    I was wondering if its absolutely necessary that elka does the rebuild.

    Will Using 87 Octane impact performance?

    I go hard to speed speed limit then easy up so it seems I should stick with 91. this is my 14th year with Spyder RS(2nd one now) and I know that acceleration is not the forte of Spyder but I would like to get what I can get. :)

    Will Using 87 Octane impact performance?

    lets see if I got this right. so if I get like 20mpg on local street and 30 on freeway, I should stick to 91, correct?

    Does a leaky Elka rear shock have to be shipped to them?

    it looks like my problematic elka has leaked out and I am on just springs after 6000 miles/1 1/2 year. I ordered it directly from elka with my specs but was bottoming out right out of the box and didn't function well from the start even after adjusting it and their tech wasn't much of a help...
