• 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.

    Osskicker... just remember when you get your spyder... even if it is brand new the first thing you do after checking the oil is put a battery tender on that new battery overnight. A weak battery causes more problems than you can count on two hands. Also ask Christy if she has an Aunt Olivia...

    UNFRIENDLY RYDER

    I travel up and down the eastern seaboard and I've never met an unfriendly spyder rider. As a matter of fact I have found when you are riding a spyder everyone wants to talk with you and look over your machine. /Ken krb1945

    Is it just me? Feel beat after a long ride

    I went across the Mighty Mackinaw bridge on a GL1500 a few years back and almost got blown off that one. Even the cars were getting buffeted by the cross winds that day. Those steel grates don't help any either. Some bridges will scare the bejeebers out of you no matter what you're on or in. Ken...

    Relays

    At one time or another we've all probably experienced that kind of installation. I put one of my replacements in upside down and like you got alot of messages. Ken krb1945

    2faston3 After paying attention to your handle "2faston3" ... inquiring minds want to know just how fast have you run that machine? I've only run my up to 100 and that was my limit. Why? I was on a dip-sey doodle 2 lane with a crown. And yep it scared me right down to my boots. I decided right...

    Purchased and Returned

    Many on the market are demo units. Some purchasers thought it would be cool to have a spyder but then after getting them decided "it wasn't their cup of joe"! So now they are on the market. As Scotty said a loose relay or weak battery can cause many errors to occur. That is one of the main...

    Airbox oiling!!??

    It all depends on the dirt, grime and pollen conditions where you drive. Particles the size of baking flower particles will clog the media over time. Miles and months are relative when driving in a clean environment and the filter media won't clog as quick. However, moisture in the air can...

    gas mileage

    Did you install mods that increased exhaust and air flow? Also check you brakes you may have a brake that is not released. It doesn't take much brake drag to decrease MPGs. Do you smell gas when you put it in the garage? If so check your gas cap. If ok... then check to see if the fumes are...

    My good deed for the day.

    If the air filter you got from advance is the purlator a13192 it is the exact same filter as the BRP filter just less expensive. Ken krb1945

    Airbox oiling!!??

    There are many clips to release... one in particular on the extreme right front corner as you sit on the seat is easy to miss. After you release all the clips remove the hose on the right front of the top. Then is is a matter of twisting and pulling... I pull mine out the right side. And it does...

    Dynabeads and first wash.

    I've used dyna beads in my 1800 tires for a couple of years. I like them because you get a fresh balance after every stop. The really get on the job when you hit 35 to 40 mph. They are re-usable and you can capture them when you change tires by putting an old sheet under the tire before...

    Is it just me? Feel beat after a long ride

    No it isn't you... many of us tire out on the longer rides. The heat, wind, sun, viberation and other factors tire us out. I would hazard a guess that world class athletes with their extreme physical conditioning wouldn't even notice a 400 mile ride. The "old bird" that I am it tires me out...

    SE5 won't start

    When you hit the button did the solenoid even try to engage the started? Her SE5 had something like this happen one time at a gas station... it wouldn't even activate the solenoid... after making sure it was in neutral and pressing the brake it started. Had us worried for several minutes though...
