• 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.

    09 Spyder GS lost key - is it possible to program new keys to the Spyder?

    Thanks. Mine is a 2015, so I'm mainly concerned with what works on my application. I'm willing to help others whenever I can. (y)

    09 Spyder GS lost key - is it possible to program new keys to the Spyder?

    I have BUDS1 with the Megatech license. I know I can add and delete keys. I only got one key with my Spyder. It had two keys programmed. I bought a new key online, had it cut and I programmed it to my bike without any problems. IIRC, I did not need to have the working key in the ignition to...

    G'day from Down Under - what to look for in a high milage Spyder?

    I can't really add to what Peter said. An SE model makes a lot more sense considering your situation. Good luck, and I hope you can find a good deal on a nice bike. These things really are fun to ride.

    I'd test ride first, and make sure you can shift comfortably. I assume you have a prosthetic leg?

    Ramp for rear wheel to make adding air easier

    I think people are making WAY too big an issue about this subject. For street riding, I doubt anyone here could even detect a 3 or 4 psi difference in tire pressure, and it's certainly not going to result in a catastrophic tire failure. On most of my street cars, I run about 10% over the factory...

    Do I really need to replace the DESS & ignition for key replacement.- 2014 RT-S?

    I think so. I'll have to confirm next time I connect. I haven't had any trouble with DESS. I only got one key with my bike, and I did successfully add a spare.

    Any opinions on Monster Stage 2 vs Power Vision 3?

    I ended up getting the PV4 from Fuel Moto. I loaded a canned tune first, collected some data logs, and sent them in. Fuel Moto sent me an initial custom tune, and I'll collect more logs when the weather warms up. They also offer future tune support for any future mods I make. I'm very pleased...

    G'day from Down Under - what to look for in a high milage Spyder?

    I'd be a bit leery of any motorcycle with that many miles on it. I recently picked up my 2015 F3S SM6 with 9,600 miles for $8,000 USD. If possible, I'd hold out to find a 2014-up unit with the 1330 ACE motor. They seem to have fewer problems. Good luck, they are really fun machines to ride.

    Do I really need to replace the DESS & ignition for key replacement.- 2014 RT-S?

    It's BUDS-1, so it works for everything through 2016. I got it with a 10 year Megatech license from https://diag-systems.net/ They have it on sale now for $375 plus shipping. It took a couple weeks to ship from Ukraine.

    Do I really need to replace the DESS & ignition for key replacement.- 2014 RT-S?

    I have BUDS with the Megatech license. It allows me access to all functions, including DESS programming. It's a great investment if you plan to work on your own bike.

    2025 Pulse and Origin Reveal - did they fail mileage hopes?

    Before I retired, I often had to travel on short notice. Many times, the drive could be 1,000 miles or more one way, with one day to be there. Seeing your real world numbers, we're a LOOOOONNNNGGG way from electric vehicles being able to replace a normal car. :eek:

    Any Full Synthetic oils that DON'T have issues with clutch slipping? RS V-twin motor

    I ran that oil in my Legends race car for 10 years. Never had a clutch problem. XJ1200 Yamaha motor, 130HP, 300+ degree oil temps and lots of clutchless shifts on road courses. I did run an extra friction disc and double diaphragm springs, which was possible by removing spacers and rearranging...

    Mad Ramps for hauling Spyder

    Regardless which way you load it, it's gonna take some very long ramps to get a Spyder into a pickup without it hanging up underneath. I brought mine home on my open aluminum trailer, which has a beavertail only about a foot high at the back. My ramps are 7 feet long, and it will still drag...

    Where is the best spot for Jack placement?

    I'd love for you to show me a difference in tire pressure with the tire on the ground vs: lifted. I've been a racer for years, and I've never been able to see a difference, even with high resolution gauges.

    Any Tips for removing clutch oil drain plug before hot oil shoots out?

    I noticed that when removing that plug, the first few turns allow the oil from the oil tank to drain. I just waited until that was down to a drip and finished pulling the plug, which drained the crankcase. Then when I pulled the clutch side plug, I only got a few more ounces out of that side...
