• 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.

    New Goldwing Launch

    Coming from an 05 wing to my spyder, I really like the look of this bike. If I were inclined to go back to 2 wheels, this would be the one from the looks of it. However, I have ridden my spyder 3x's more then my annual mileage on my wing in 3 months. Needless to say I'm sticking with my spyder...

    What about what you don't you like about the Spyder?

    Coming from a goldwing, it's hard for me to understand why this machine is belt driven. I think something of this size should be shaft driven. I also think the helmet locks are very poorly designed & located. My helmets have a communication system and won't lock under the seat and the storage...

    Why Did You Buy A Spyder?

    My health limited the time I could spend on my golwing. It took me over 3 years to pull the trigger for my spyder and I am glad I did. I ride the spyder much more than 2 wheels. It was necessary to keep riding. Chris

    Apparel

    It's not just Spyder gear, try to find something that has goldwing on it. I wanted goldwing apparel when I rode my goldwing but was never had any luck, I know the goldwing community is larger than the spyder group but you'd never know from the merchandise. It's all about money

    Took the Plunge - 2017 RT Limited (gray) is now in the garage!

    Congratulations and welcome. I have been riding my 2016 RTL for about 6 weeks now. I really love this machine. I went from a Goldwing to the Spyder and don't regret it at all. In fact I wish I did it sooner. While the info on this site is excellent, I decided to ride the machine to see what...

    New Owner

    Welcome, I wasn't sure I was ready to give up my goldwing but let me tell you something. Making this purchase has been the best thing, I should have done it years ago when I began looking at the bikes. I have more miles in the last month on my spyder then all year on my wing. Its terrific...

    Seat Dilemma

    My wife complains of the lack of passenger space since we switched from our goldwing to the 60 RTL. We have a comfort seat and I too seem to slid and have some discomfort after an hour or two. I will probably go to a local upholstery guy to have the seat redone rather than buy a cookie cutter...

    Stopping distance-close call

    I read plenty of threads that talk about the close calls and such but haven't seen a thread talking about the stopping capability of our machines. That was my primary reason for this thread. I don't believe the stopping distance for my wing was nearly as good but I never had a close call like...

    Stopping distance-close call

    This morning while riding to work, I came upon a line of traffic stopped at a light in the straight lane. I was traveling in the turning lane when out of nowhere someone decided it was ok to let a driver out of a starbucks. This person didn't see me at all based on the expression on her face...

    Riding in the rain

    When I rode my gold wing, I wouldn't avoid the rainy weather but it wasn't enjoyable to ride in the rain on my wing. Since I've purchased my spyder, I've put more miles on it in less than a month then I put on my wing all season. It is everything I hoped it would be so far and more. I've been...

    2015 1330 "whine"

    The whine on my goldwing was the gears on the alternator. Something about how they are cut makes them whine. I don't know for sure but this type of construction may be the problem on these bikes as well. I'm not an expert by any means, so take it for what it's worth. Chris

    Spyder Insurance Cost VS 2 Wheeled Bike Insurance Cost

    I to recommend Dairyland. I had my goldwing insured through Erie and the wing was almost $600. My 16 RTL is $300 with good limits and roadside. Chris
