• 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.

    TPMS questions

    Securing electrical connections after hand hold removal

    You can try to find a cover or just seal it with electrical tape. I'm sure others will have more ideas, but electrical tape has worked for me for years.

    Introduction

    I assume by your handle, JoeValkIS, that you are a current or past owner of a Valkyrie Interstate. You will be surprised how many Spyder owners are Valkyrie owners. There's something in the blood. Welcome aboard.

    First freeway drive

    Mine was twitchy when changing lanes on the interstate at first. Got a laser alignment and the problem went away. If you have a little too much toe in it tends to over steer.

    Best wire connectors for LED lights?

    Like Anne said, Posi-Taps. To combat the humidity, I put a dab of silicon sealer on the ends where the wire goes into the Posi-Tap.

    Test Ride, do you let them?

    Air Box Removal ?

    The unit in the front is the resonator. It stays in place. To remove the part over the engine you need to unhook the spring clips. There are about six of them. Slide the top out. There are six black torx screws holding the lower unit to the throttle body. Lift it off. The first time is always...

    2014 RTL Horn and ALS not working

    Here's a video showing how to install a relay for the compressor. I tapped into the compressor wire behind the fuse box. You can also tap at the compressor itself. Mine was done on a 2011, so the fuse boxes are different than yours. https://youtu.be/zax7DHo-orI

    Do you still have a regular motorcycle along with your Spyder ??

    My other bike is a 1999 Honda Valkyrie with over 100,000 miles. We got the Spyder because my wife wasn't comfortable on two wheels anymore. I told her I really didn't want to sell the Valkyrie in order to get the Spyder. She said I didn't have to and we could keep both. I said, "Bless you...

    Happy Father's Day

    You too Paul. My family is taking me to a German restaurant. I'm Swedish, so I'm still thinking about that. Got my first gift, a new gun case for my musket.

    Rear Air Adjustable Suspension

    There are several connections that can leak. You may also have a leak in the bag itself. Pull off the Tupperware and get a spray bottle with soapy water and spray around looking for bubbles.
