• 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.

    Anyone else have this RT-L whine noise issue? Any advice?

    Personally, I'd ride it w/o any other adjustments. At this late date there is likely no extended warranty from the previous owner.... the recall if needed could be researched. I can't remember if there's a 500-600 mile initial oil change indicated in the break-in period. Being a new to you...

    Got my Speedbleeders today! Straight forward install?

    Hello NorwegianRT, Hey, I am still enjoying the trunk lid support you designed and file you sent to me. I have made 2... using an online 3d company for $15/EACH. In regards to the speed bleeders ... just a simple remove and replace ... it'd be a travesty if you lose more than a couple drops of...

    RT rescued from graveyard

    Just a quick "kudos" to megagame and BertRemmington.....two members that have enriched the last two years of SPYDERLOVERS with their persistence and knowledge in repairing what seemingly would appear to most of us as "lost causes" in the revival of wrecked Spyders. I would love to see the two of...

    2021 RT rear tire change cost - did I over-pay?

    Mikey-this is exactly what I have done for the rear tires as well.... I was a bit apprehensive at first... had a lil trouble with the actuator on the parking brake-pads, no problem... I also adjusted the belt alignment with bike jacked up and running the rear tire - I used the Krikit for belt...

    Show Chrome Trunk Rack After Thoughts.

    Any additional weight of the trunk lid will overload the lift struts. Easy solution is the to add the prop that has been sold by Pierre and shown by NorwegianRT and elucidated by so many folks.

    998cc My current ride is a 2011 RT - is the 1330 that much better?

    I have both 2012 RTL and 2014 RTS. Both white. Both great. I almost pulled the trigger on the an "upgrade" for the 12 but when it comes down to it ....I'd say the only significant changes I wanted were upgraded Brembo braking, less maintenance and a lil less idle rpm. None of which are...

    Anyone tried "Speed Bleeders" brake bleeders?

    Eviltwin, it's easy to get air in, and IDK what method you used. Was it absolutely working before you started, or is this a result of your work? Ps: I don't pump the brake pedal to push fluid through, in most instances I just tie down the pedal; open the bleeder; keep the reservoir full until I...

    Anyone tried "Speed Bleeders" brake bleeders?

    I did the speed bleeders on the 2012 RT at the calipers only -Not on the VCM - that's too hard to reach and requires BUDS to bleed. My thoughts are that with all the lines to the brakes, you will get about 90% of the DOT4 exchanged. Granted, it's not complete, but good enough for me. To actuate...
