• 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.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Thx. Did the left shoulder last February, so I know what to expect. Takes a lot of maintenance to get old. LOL

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I put my parking brake back together today. A while back it would not release, so I took the cable off and just let it sit. I rode it a couple of times but did not stop anywhere that I needed a parking brake. So today I decided I need to check it out and determine if it was something I could...

    Buying S2S - What luggage to maximize storage? Add a trunk top mount?

    We use laundry bags. They let you use every square inch your compartments. We have a topcase rack, but use that to put our jackets on if we take them off.

    The frequent lament of "they said my Spyder was not a real motorcycle!"

    I rode many Harleys for many years. The last one being a TriGlide. Never had anyone tell me it wasn't a motorcycle. When my shoulders got real bad I switched to a F3 Limited. Have been to Sturgis rally multiple times. Never had anyone tell me it wasn't a motorcycle, and if they had, so...

    Anyone doctored their 2021 F3 Top Case Back Rest?

    downside to the grips is if you do a lot of mountain or twistie riding. My wife hated them doing a lot of curvy roads. Installed the armrests and now she is happy

    AC joint separation - have you ridden the Spyder with one?

    Different Docs have different philosophies. I had total shoulder replacement. I left the hospital with my arm in a sling, but with explicit instruction to not wear it more than 48 hours. Then move arm as pain would allow. So far so good.

    Need advice on Changing Rear Tire on a 2021 Sea to Sky...

    my dealer only charged me $108 to change the rear tire. I carried the tire ($97 from tire rack) in and they did all the labor.

    Brand new 2023 S2S Clunks going into Reverse - is this OK?

    Nor much different than a Harley. It is caused by the straight cut gears. The straight-cut gear teeth provide complete contact along each tooth's mating surface at all times, providing added strength over helical gears, and their straight profile also means that there's no thrust load to...

    Lost a friend today

    Lost a friend, neighbor, and a fellow Spyder rider this week. Bob let met ride his Spyder a few years ago, which led me to buying mine. He was 88 years old and still owned 6 motocycles including his 2017 F3-S. Given his many years of drag racing, that is how he rode his Spyder; full...

    What's happening with Front sprockets on the 2020 and up Spyders?

    Just to muddy the waters a little more. I took my 2018 F3L in for the recall. They tested/measured it for movement and determined it was bad. NO RED DUST THOUGH. They replaced the original pulley with a new white one during the recall period. Once the new final fix was available they...

    How does your Spyder react to Road Hazards?

    watch out for pot holes too. I hit one earlier this year. Ruined the right front tire. Had to get a tow and a new tire, along with a laser alignment. Otherwise bike unhurt.

    Any Tips for reducing road trip costs?

    Many, many years ago we did our first trip to Sturgis. We tried to be thrifty and watch our meals and did the tent thing, once we got there. That was the last time in a tent. We decided we are too old to sleep on the ground, and too spoiled to eat ****ty food. Now when we go to Sturgis, we...

    Anyone with a CCW vest?

    I wear a thumb break belt holster when I ride (have for years), with an untucked shirt, so if I take my jacket off it is still concealed.

    Just to confirm my rear tire size and brand

    You could also run a Altimax 225 60. That is what has been on my Spyder for the last year
