• 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.

    Paint on exhaust coming off - anyone else? Any fixes?

    The best high temp powder coat is good to about 800° F. Ceramic coating much higher. Most ceramic/powder coaters will treat it with stripper and sand blast to prep for adhesion. Not sure how hot a secondary muffler gets? Do you have an infrared heat gun?

    Looking for Battery recommendations & sources to order from?

    When my two year old Yuasa craps out, I'm going all in on a Shorai LFX lith ion.

    Left fender lights stopped working? Any ideas on what to check? And how to determine fault codes?

    Wouldn't the repairs be covered under your comp insurance? Most companies wouldn't ding you for that.

    Rear mud flap rubbing & melting!

    I've also been pondering cutting off the lower 3" at the cut line. Still plenty of rear protection.

    Is the Radio Reception on 2024 Spyder RT Limited's any good?

    I generally sign up for XM streaming during the summer, when you can get 3-4 months for $15. I generally take it June-Sept. Cancelling on line is easy, as no more need to listen to a high pressure rep.

    Is the Radio Reception on 2024 Spyder RT Limited's any good?

    FM radio reception on my 2022 RT S2S is basically acceptable at best. I generally stream iHeart radio on my phone and Bluetooth it to my speakers. Crisp and clear for me. I certainly wouldn't avoid a 2024 RTL over FM reception.

    Anyone tried Slime in the Rear wheel? How did it work?

    I was actually told the opposite from a Ride-On tech (Harry). He said the motorcycle formula is more viscous than the auto formula. Go figure ...

    Anyone tried Slime in the Rear wheel? How did it work?

    I have used Ride-On brand tire sealant and balancer in many of my motorcycles over the years. I now have it in the rear tire on my 2022 RT S2S. Unlike Slime, Ride-On is clean and doesn't fling all over the place.

    2022 OEM RT S2S seat versus redone Russell Day Long seat.

    I did have one installed, but I also recently installed the Spyder Extras under seat wedge. Won't be any issues there :)

    2022 OEM RT S2S seat versus redone Russell Day Long seat.

    Well... I received my RTL take off seat earlier this week from Russell Day Long. Its build date was Dec 30, and it came back on the 21st. I purchased the take off RTL seat for $125, as I wanted to keep my OEM RT S2S seat intact. My seat was spec'd to have black vinyl sides with graphite vinyl...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    LS2 makes really nice helmets for the $$. I have both the Advant and Drifter. I put a amber drop down visor in my Advant. Amber is nice for when riding at night/cloudy weather/rain. Heck, I'm always wearing sunglasses anyways :)

    Lame USPS - sending my items on a nice long road trip!

    Thought I'd add a second USPS mailing debacle. Back on Oct. 01, I requested some leather samples from Corbin seats. After a couple weeks of not receiving, I made another request. Those samples arrived within 10 days. Since then, I went with Russell Day Long. Well, today according to USPS...

    Does anyone leave the parking brake off during winter storage? And some rodent protection discussion...

    Just went out to the garage and released my parking brake. WTH :)
