• 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.

    Has anyone given their Spyder a "Name"???

    Fat White Chick. My wife has always called my bikes the other woman that gets more bling than she does.

    "E" when shifting gears

    I had this problem when I first got the Fat White Chick. Turns out I was shifting too quickly and the gear position sensor couldn't keep up. Stretched out the shift intervals and haven't seen it happen again.

    Shipping my Spyder RT

    You may be right, that would be a logical way to do it. I posted what they told me when we were trying to find my scooter.

    Shipping my Spyder RT

    I used haul bikes once when I bought a scooter in NY state. They did fine on the delivery, but they use a hub and spoke method, with all bikes going back to MN first, then delivered when they have enough bikes going in one direction to justify the trip. It can take several weeks to get your bike...

    Where's the trailer's truck?

    Reed Timmer and the other storm chasers have a screw loose. A couple of them die each season chasing storms. But they do get amazing videos.

    ok drone lovers, don't do this

    It depends on the drone. My Phantom 4 is GPS enabled, and once turned on remembers its starting point. I can activate a "go home" function and it climbs to 85 feet, returns to the starting point, and lands slowly. I have to be sure there are no obstructions on the trip back, otherwise it's an...

    ok drone lovers, don't do this

    About 3/4 of these drone operations were illegal. It makes it harder for the rest of us to find areas to fly when so many people just ignore the laws.

    FOBO will not pair

    I was going to suggest a battery change.

    Can I install new fog lights without removing the frunk ?

    You don't need any extension cables to install Lamont's LED lights. Pull the rear covers, unplug the fog lights, plug in the new ones, put the covers back on. The headlights are a bit more involved due to the control box that needs to be routed outside the headlight housing. Lamont has a video...

    Reflections on recent upgrades

    see my signature, only the last six items are the new ones. I'm way past starting to farkle, but this bunch required the most Tupperware removal I had to do. I'm about done with upgrades for a while.

    Fobo problem

    Is the pressure slowly dropping? I had put on one of the locking nuts but had not screwed it in far enough, so the FOBO unit was leaking very slowly. Once it alerted I went back and realized the problem.

    Reflections on recent upgrades

    I just completed the most work on the Fat White Chick since I bought her. Let me offer some reflections on the results. Today was my first test drive, and next week I am taking her to Spyderfest. Doc Humphrey's vibration damper -- I am so impressed with the results of this. My Spyder would...

    Can I install new fog lights without removing the frunk ?

    I replaced mine by removing the two black inspection panels on the upper corners of the frunk, then a combination of reaching from there and inside the wheel wells. I wish I had smaller hands, but it's doable. Not fun, but doable. This is on a 14 RTL.

    Airhorn

    I just installed a Stebel with the relay. Stebel says their horn can use up to 20 amps, and therefore recommends the relay to prevent electrical damage to the bike's horn button or other parts not designed for higher power. YMMV.
