• 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.

    Eclipse Reports - April 2024

    We were fortunate to be in the Totality Zone here. I elected to work from home today, and around 1:45 I set up some comfy chairs and a blue tooth speaker in the back yard, then we went out around 2:00 Eastern, tuned in a station on Pandora and enjoyed an absolutely beautiful afternoon as we...

    '22 RT starting slowly after sitting on tender - replacement Battery?

    After I took the voltage readings that Peter suggested, I decided to purchase the lithium battery pack that's sold by Lamonster, if for no other reason than to rule out a 2nd weak battery. It was delivered quickly, I charged it up overnight then installed it and got the exact same results. I...

    Spyderlovers - Facebook - Or Both?

    1- This Spyderlovers forum I've been a member here for less than a year. I enjoy absorbing information from those who are in the know, and IMHO there is far less opinion and much more experience based fact in here than anywhere else. :ohyea:

    '22 RT starting slowly after sitting on tender - replacement Battery?

    Yesterday afternoon I was able to take 3 of the suggested readings. 1. after they've sat for some hours off the maintainer doing nothing; 12.93V 2. then shortly after you first turn the ignition on; 12.45V 3. then when you're actually trying to start/physically cranking the engine; the engine...

    '22 RT starting slowly after sitting on tender - replacement Battery?

    Good morning, and thanks for the quick responses. I forgot to mention in my original post last night (it was late, I was tired, I know...excuses, excuses) that I did take the original (Haijiu) battery up to the local parts store and had them test it, and it tested good. I also left this battery...

    '22 RT starting slowly after sitting on tender - replacement Battery?

    I'm experiencing something similar to the original post, with some noteworthy differences. 23 RT S2S, purchased in Oct 2023. Drove it about 250 miles before winterizing. Kept it on the Optimate Maintainer through winter. My buddy and I installed four front end light kits in Dec. We used the...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I'm very interested in both of these options. How do you like the look of the bumper? Can you feel a difference in the ride with the new sway bar?

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Last weekend I removed the cover from the Spyder and moved the bike over into a good working space to R&R the front tires. I needed to reposition some wiring connectors that I'd left exposed a few months ago when I installed the fender light kits. I was hoping that I'd be able to do this by...

    50 year old video camera on moon still works

    I remember asking about this when I was in grammar school. How can a flag wave like that in the pictures if there isn't any wind on the moon. My teacher answered...you're not seeing the flag wave. What you see is the flag being propped up with rods to hold it open. And after looking closer it's...

    A small Safety Mod to our 2022 RTL with a big improvement!

    I didn't use any tools to remove the original from my Spyder. I just gripped it tightly, gave it a little tug and it pulled right off. It kind of surprised me that it didn't fight anymore than that.

    Just finished installing my new Spyderpops KOTT Grille.

    Thank you GDoc, I'll keep my eye out for any updates. There are so many variables that have to be taken in consideration (ambient temp, RPMs, ride vs idle time, etc.) And also, the Spyder owner would have had to have been paying attention to water temp, fan cycles, and so on. I'm not sure...
