• 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.

    Need a Madstad "T" Nut

    That's too bad about Madstad CS. I've had two past Madstad shields, and their customer service always assisted me in spare parts. I guess a sign of the times :(

    General Safety Recall - is the onus on servicing dealer to notify &/or perform the necessary work?

    AND ... If a person purchases a newer used vehicle that is still under OEM warranty, it is THAT persons responsibility to transfer ownership of the vehicle with the manufacturer. A vehicle dealer can help with that process.

    What Communication devices do you use between rider/pillion & other riders in your group?

    Been a faithful Sena user, but just recently picked up a Cardo Freecomm 4 to use in a new helmet. Still waiting on the helmet. Whatever comm you get, be sure to get a device with voice command (Sena) or Natural voice (Cardo). Other than syncing other devises, your unit will then be hands free...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Just ordered Spyderpop grill vents and Lamonster front Brite Ryder frunk light from Lamonster. Part of my winter 2024/2025 add ons :)

    Baldwin Ironworks Cat Delete vs Lamonster's - preferences/recommendations?

    In a word.. Maybe. The Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act protects consumers from possible warranty claim rejections. The dealer/MFR has to prove that any consumer negligence was a cause of any warranty issues. If you install a cat delete/change exhaust, and say you burn a valve, the MFR may have a...

    Any Pics of 2020+ RT Daylong or Laam Driver's Seats?

    I had Laam do the seat on my past F3S and was very satisfied. What soured me with him on my RT seat was his attitude toward some of my ideas. I was pondering leather inserts, and he strongly advised me against it. That's Ok, but he didn't bother to send me any samples of vinyl/leather I...

    Anyone know if the OEM Swaybars on F3's are stiffer than RT's?

    Thanks Ron. I actually snugged up both bushings and control arms just before winter storage. I'll send some pictures in a few months after the Wisconsin hibernation :)

    Any Pics of 2020+ RT Daylong or Laam Driver's Seats?

    My OEM RTL seat is now in possession of Russell Day Long. The build date is for a couple weeks, but shipped it a bit early to reduce chance of being delayed in busy shipping season. I FINALLY settled on black vinyl sides/graphite vinyl top/half moon stitch pattern/graphite thread color. I'll...

    Anyone know if the OEM Swaybars on F3's are stiffer than RT's?

    I also put the BR Ultra bar on my 2022 RT S2S. I have had to snug it up a couple of times to eliminate some "clunk" noise. I think if I did it again, I'd order the original version.

    Baldwin Ironworks Cat Delete vs Lamonster's - preferences/recommendations?

    I've had two Baldwin Ironworks cat deletes. I actually stopped by his shop in 2019 on my way to the Ozarks. He built me a fresh cat delete, installed it on my 2019 F3S and shipped my OEM cat back to my residence, all for the original selling price. I can't verify or prove, but I'm guessing that...

    Anyone done a Cat Delete leaving stock muffler on?

    I can't prove it, but I actually think Paul Baldwin builds the cat delete for Lamonster. Baldwin Ironworks is only about 20 miles away from Lamonster's shop.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Big difference in quality. OEM belt tensioner is made out of plastic and has a small roller with light bearings. The Lamonster (and Spyder Extras) rollers are stout aluminum arms with larger rollers with stouter bearings. About to replace my OEM tension on my 2022 RT S2S with the Lamonster unit.

    Any tips on removing all left side panels on 2020+ RT, especially the large panel?

    Thanks. I was wondering if there was a way to do this by being able to just remove some rear push pins/clips and being able to pull out just enough to access the tensioner.

    Any tips on removing all left side panels on 2020+ RT, especially the large panel?

    Hey all, This question is for those who have removed all the body panels from the left/clutch side of a 2020+ RT/RTL. I will be installing a Lamonster belt tensioner, and I have removed the (3) basic panels. I know I also have to remove both the driver/passenger floorboards. My question is for...

    Any Full Synthetic oils that DON'T have issues with clutch slipping? RS V-twin motor

    The only 5w40 MA/MA2 oil I would consider using would be the latest Amsoil iteration. I'll stick with 10w40 for the little extra shearing stability....

    Where to look to get more handlebar cable slack on 2020+ RT models?

    Ha ... OK. 1.) By saying I can't find the left side (clutch side per se) cable, I meant as it runs down into the console area into the front cavity. I can't find where it runs inside the left area behind where the panels were removed. 2.) On the right/throttle side, I try to follow the control...

    Where to look to get more handlebar cable slack on 2020+ RT models?

    Hey all 2020+ RT owners, I'm wondering where to look under the side panels to get more handlebar cable slack for my 2022 RT S2S? I took off the wire loom clip at the top and just removed the (3) panels on both sides. The left side cable is nowhere to be found. I found a zip tie around two looms...

    Are the stock cables long enough when installing short reach bars?

    Which bars were taller, the mini apes or the Helibars?
