• 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.

    Great Time At "Spyders in the Adirondacks"

    That sounds like a good turnout.

    Email from carlo

    I didn't know what that meant either but wasn't curious enough to ask. I figured it was that a Hard or Absolute wall meant it was regulated by hardware in / on the engine while a Soft wall meant that it was controlled by software in the computer. Ron's guess sounds a lot better than mine.

    LEG 1 Completed

    I'm only 47 and I still agree with you for the most part but these two have been riding hard like this before and I think they know their limits.

    One thing I really do like about the new picture format

    I also like that I clicked on the picture in this post and it opened the album in a new window so that when I was done viewing the pictures, I closed the window and was right back where I left off.

    Great Time At "Spyders in the Adirondacks"

    What kind of turnout did they have for this event? I know that they had a good thing going with Spyders in the Smokies (but BRP stole their thunder this year) and I wondered if its carried on with the change of location.

    BRP Oil

    If you want to use BRP oil most of the time, why not just carry a quart with you on trips? Otherwise, boborgera's post about getting any brand motorcycle oil at motorcycle shops is very good advice. I wouldn't count on being able to find a compatible oil for your Spyder at Walmart or the local...

    New Look

    This is the second or third (or forth or fifth?) upgrade I've been through on SpyderLovers and each time it causes a little anxiety while trying to get familiar with the new idiosyncrasies of the forum software but soon Lamont will have the tweaks done on his end, we'll get used to the new...

    Kill Switch

    But killing power may give you back control of the steering allowing you to correct back into your lane instead of braking into oncoming traffic. I don't know this for sure as the issue never happened on my Spyder, I'm just speculating.

    Kill Switch

    Potentially those who had the bad DPS that locked into a left or right turn might have wanted to use the kill switch as taking a hand off the handlebars to turn off the key would have been a disaster.

    seat

    Depending on where the tear is, I think a spot repair has a varying chance of success. Maybe you can find a replacement seat cover or buy one of the BRP upgrade covers for the stock seat. Or take it to someplace that works with vinyl extensively (like a boat cover shop or an auto upholstery...

    My Spyder is home, let the riding begin again

    Didn't you have this same problem once before, about two years ago? At that time they had to replace something on your Spyder to make the problem go away.
