• 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.

    Any reviews on After market trailer hitches?

    For our 2021 RTL, I bought a WeiSen hitch via Amazon and have been very pleased so far. Added Show Chrome/Big Bike Parts 5 pin wiring harness and Uni-go connector. Cut the upright verticle receiver section off of my Uni-go adapter left over from the GL1800. Bored a 7/8" hole in it and attached...

    Won’t go in reverse or manually downshift

    Switch, wiring, or connector to the left control. If not for the warranty risk, I'd try a shot of contact cleaner on the switch and connectors.

    Finally got a new Spyder

    Adjustable wind deflectors, backrest. Since iMotorsports discounts accessories sold with the deal and installs for free. I doubt you'll need the highway pegs.

    Well, I have a price

    Kind of an update on our RTL. Pulled the old Uni-go to Barber Vintage Festival and back, no problems at all. Last night rode ~20 miles to church, then back at aboht 8pm. It was down into the 50s already, and I just has thin leather gloves, jeans, and an insulated armoured jacket on. Was feeling...

    New Spyder

    Mine came from iMotorsports with 30 psi front and 35 rear. I lowered them to 18/28. Came with a full tank of gas, though!

    Dealer changed service staff - now refuses to install ANY auto tire on a Spyder.

    Try Walmart. Might not be able to balance, but you can run beads.

    Brp go

    I believe Androids can use Android Auto. But, I don't use any of these. Just Hey Google.

    Dupe.

    Need a Stiff hitch for a Uni-go - recommend any?

    An update on pulling a Uni-go using a sawed-off MC verticle receiver hitch bolted to Chinabay Spyder hitch adapter and BigBike Parts/Show Chrome wiring adapter; Worked great for a ~300 mile (one-way) trip to Birmingham and back for Barber vintage weekend! Took some rather rough back streets...

    Who Uses Shell Rotella T-6

    I use 5W40 like I used in my '06 GL1800. Only one oil change so far, though.

    Recommend/suggest Bluetooth for single rider?

    I have an old Sena SMH5 that connects to the phone. When the wife is with me it also connects to her SMH5. Does all we want.

    Build date is 05/2020, selling as a 2021 model?

    From what I read, ALL 2010 model Honda GL1800s were built before January 2010. Then they closed the factory and auctioned/shipped equipment.

    Use the same Tire pressure riding 2 up?

    BK, maybe you know Longtimer well, but the rest of us may not know if he is running a CT. How about expanding your answer to the Kendas for those of us still running them?

    Pre hibernation battery charge/maintainer options

    One of those says 2 Watt? That's 166 mA! I don't think it will do it.

    Pre hibernation battery charge/maintainer options

    You really should go ahead and do the oil change before storage.

    What portable air compressor do you use?

    I have a cheapo (Walmart, I think) squarish blue 12V that I cut the cigarette lighter plug off of and installed an SAE to mate up to my battery tender connection. I've used it five times - never for myself - on both the GL1800 and now the Spyder. It rests well in the bottom of the frunk along...

    Looking for Can-Am Dealer Transmission Repair

    And, as another Tennessee Spyder owner, I'd love to hear of the "good" servicing dealer.

    Car Tires and Tire Pressure

    GL1800s have been known to run car tires at zero psi without bead separation, and they don't have "J" beads. Several of the GL1800 "dark siders" have reported full pressure loss (road hazard or valve stem failure) that was only discovered when they arrived home. Now, these are usually on...

    Lost my jacket liner - replacement possible?

    I would find out who really made the jacket (should be on a label inside) and watch for one on eBay.
