• 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.

    Riding Spyders instead of......

    I wasn't panning on them. That's basically what I was told. Those guys idea of a long days ride is 5 - 6 hours riding and 4 hours of not riding (gas, food, drinks, visiting, etc.) I kinda prefer that type of long ride myself.

    How to do YOU get on to your Spyder?

    I voted always on the left as it just feels right. I've gotten on it a couple of times from the right but it feels awkward.

    Riding Spyders instead of......

    Some of my coworkers are in Sturgis this week. They trailered up (6 bikes) because they knew they couldn't ride that far in the allotted time. In talking with one of them, I guess they can't ride more than 1 - 2 hours without taking an hour break. :dontknow:

    Another 1" riser ???

    I sent coz my stock riser so he could go back to stock. You had the BRP 1" riser already on your Spyder when you bought it. Here is a picture of a stock riser.

    Official Updated 3 Great Lakes in 3 Great Days Ride

    Depending on how the Village Inn was on Friday, I was thinking of eating there Saturday night as well. The menu looks good and has a nice variety. However, as Debbie stated in one of her posts, we are doing things in a relaxed manner with no strict itinerary. If you (or I) felt like eating...

    2008 Spyder seat replacement

    I have the Russell seat on my RS and I love it but if I had it to do over again, I think I would get a KonTour seat mostly because of its seat cover material. Its pricing is similar to Russell's.

    Mirror Extension Question

    The ESI ones look a little more finished than the KewlMetal ones (my wife had KewlMetal and switched to ESI) and my wife and many other people report that they work better so you should be very happy with your ESI purchase. :thumbup:

    Mirror Extension Question

    ESI extensions are manufactured differently than the KewlMetal ones that you have. They have a hole that you have to put the wires through, not a groove with a cover that the wires sit in.

    Mirror Extension Question

    I did the cut and splice procedure when I installed the extensions on my wife's Spyder. It was going to be much quicker for me to do that than to try and get the wires out of the socket and put them back in. Its worked great. I put heat shrink over each individual wire, soldered them together...

    2 Spyders/2 Odometers = Way off ???

    Another factor could be the mileage on the tires. A low mileage tire with full tread depth will give a different odometer / MPH result than a tire thats worn down to the wear bars. Not as dramatic as Scotty's 1 inch difference example but still a factor. IMO, unless you've had your...
