• 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.

    I am now Spyderless

    My riding gear is still in the closet... just in case! It's been nearly 4 years now since my Spyder left the driveway with its new owner. But, I still find it enjoyable and rewarding to stay in touch with my Spyder friends on this wonderful site. Sincerely hope you do the same. Cheers.... Jim

    Partly cloudy and 68 degrees here in the desert. We'll hit a high of 75 today. Breeze of about 5 MPH. We did have some rain in the forecast for later in the week but that seems to be "drying up" now :cool:. Looks like the rest of the week we'll see seasonally average temperatures for us...

    How many States require a Motorcycle Endorsement for Spyders?

    My final thoughts... When I got my MC endorsement in Washington State, there were 3 levels of MC endorsements depending upon the MC's size. I got the highest level. Spyders, Trikes, and MCs are all licensed as motorcycles and having the MC endorsement means (I believe) that I can legally ride...

    Sunny with a light breeze here in the desert. There are no clouds in sight. The high will be 80 degrees. The Snowbirds are making good use of our pool and golf course. I gave up golf due to mobility issues and, for me, it's too cold to hang around the pool. The time for doing that will come...

    Random thought for the day

    The American public has been caring and (over) feeding that fat rodent for way too long. I hope ICE took his cell phone away from him too.....

    How many States require a Motorcycle Endorsement for Spyders?

    I got my motorcycle endorsement in Washington State in the early 80s after many years riding 2 wheelers, mostly off road. Having an endorsement during those early years was not even on my radar screen. Fast forward... I kept my MC endorsement and it was automatically (for a small fee) added to...

    Currently 76 here in the desert. The high today will be 85 degrees. The wind is calm. There are a few streaks of high-thin clouds. Tomorrow is forecast to be about the same as today. After that, we will slowly cool down for a few days. Stay safe..... Jim

    Should I be looking at a left-over 2024 Spyder or risking any price increase on new?

    Unfortunately, the potential for significant price increases in the near future pretty much eliminates your bargaining power for existing inventory. I think dealers will take the approach of "pay a lot now or pay a lot more later"... Not a good time to rely on Canadian imports.

    What was your best Upgrade/Add-on to your Spyder???

    2014 RTL... Many upgrades but the three I would do immediately again if starting over are, in order of importance, 1. Replace OEM tires with quality car tires 2. Install Baja Ron sway bar. 3. Laser alignment. There were many other changes and upgrades done that each added benefits to me. But I...

    The rain we had last evening here in the desert was not very widespread. In fact, there was no rain measured at the airport, which is where the official statistics come from. So, officially, our drought continues. But last evening I did see enough wet stuff to make the streets shiny from the...

    Any Recommendations for USA Made Trailer Bearings Other Than Timken?

    Seems to me if you can determine counterfeit, the distributer should be able to do the same. I'd just return the counterfeit to the distributer and instruct them to send you the valid bearings that you expected and paid for.......?

    Is there a Good Service Dealer In Western Washington State?

    Glad you found a good servicing dealer. And..... That ride down 101 and back is beautiful. It is the best way heading north or south through Washington and avoiding the I-5 mess. I have taken that road many times. But..... I always have a problem each time! I NEED to stop at The Tides on...
