• 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.

    Spider keys

    I've wondered about that too, Pam. How long has the key scabbard been used? Since my Spyder is a 2014, I don't know how long the keys have been provided like that. I know that after seven months of the key being in an out of the scabbard multiple times almost every day, it still fits quite...

    Spider keys

    I like the way it comes. The sheath it comes in has a hole in the end that goes onto a key ring. That protects it and keeps it together with whatever other keys you want. Unlike the other keys on the ring, the Spyder key will be oriented with the grip end of the key away from the ring which...

    Tricled lighting

    I'm not sure about "regular" side lights, but but my experience with TricLED's customer service has been outstanding.

    Questions concerning 2015 sponsored Spyder Events

    The only one we've been to is Spyderfest and we had a GREAT time. Was it perfect? No, there were a couple of glitches, but so what? When I was younger, I'd go to something that was really fun and get all bent out of shape because of something totally inconsequential. I'd let it ruin...

    Pointers Please

    Even my superbly engineered, finely crafted BMW K1600 GTL had that CLUNK going into first.

    Pointers Please

    Yep, that CLUNK going into first or reverse when you first start out is ... impressive.

    Dash flashing Spyder

    Thanks for the follow-up At first I thought maybe some sort of hallucinogen was involved - Spyder venom perhaps? :roflblack: Or maybe your RT's spirit was attempting to make contact. :yikes: But alas, it turned out to be something more mundane and practical. The good news is that nothing...

    Traffic in and around Atlanta !!!

    I haven't found it to be any worse on my Spyder than when I'm in my car. But I did install an air horn on the Spyder just in case. :rolleyes:

    Pointers Please

    Are you saying that your Spyder is in ECO mode by default and you have to turn ECO off every time you get on it? Mine doesn't go into ECO mode unless I turn it on. Are some Spyders set up differently or am I misunderstanding something?

    Pointers Please

    You asked if you are doing something wrong, but don't tell us what you are experiencing. Why do you think something is wrong? What is happening?

    Bad Boy 419

    Spyderpops installed mine at Spyderfest. I asked Harvey if he connected it directly or through a relay and he said directly. He said he had installed many of them that way and never had a problem. If I had done it myself, I would probably have used a relay like I did on my BMW a few years...

    Persistant Oil Leak

    I Apologize I understand your confusion and it's my fault. The oil is so clear - and my garage not well-lit - I misread the dipstick. I mentioned the low oil at the dealership and they checked it while I watched. The oil level was perfect. I should have included that in my repost. It turns...

    Persistant Oil Leak

    That set screw is apparently a fairly common cause of a leak. That's what they initially expected to find with mine, but it was fine. Good luck with yours. I hope it's diagnosed and fixed quickly.

    Persistant Oil Leak

    Apparently it actually was fixed the first time, but the tech did not clean up the bike after the repair. So the oil I spotted under the RT after the repair was not a from a leak, but oil that had dripped from a very oily engine and undercarriage . After confirming there was no leak, they...

    First Demo Ride

    Please keep us posted on your progress. The Spyder does like to dance and it's a feeling that is disconcerting at first. Since you are sitting in a motorcycle position, your neurology expects it to feel like a motorcycle, so when the pavement dips on one side, it feels like your bike is going...

    Persistant Oil Leak

    Follow up The dealership got the new tech and he seems excellent!! The problem has been solved and I'm very pleased. I think there was an internal personnel problem that affected service for a few days, but it seems to have been resolved. Overall, I think it was handled well. My Spyder is...

    First Demo Ride

    You and I have a lot in common: Previous ride - K1600 GTL, 2-wheel riding - 50 years + I thought I had made a terrible mistake getting the Spyder (2014 RT Limited). On one 20 mile trip (on some uneven pavement) from work to home, I got so tired and frustrated with trying to control the crazy...

    Potential Newbie

    What works best for us is for me to mount first, then I stand and lean forward while offering her my bent arm to grab as she mounts. After she sits, then I do. I can't see exactly how she mounts because she is behind me, but however she does it, it works.
