• 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.

    To kill or not to kill (switch), that is the question

    In my book using the kill switch, it's to easy to unintentionally leave the key on and guess what dead battery.

    Does the ECU need re-mapping after cat-delete?

    Not to high jack this thread, But I bought a used ecu from the same year as my spyder. And was going to have it flashed Stage 1, the service manual says you are supposed to use the buds software any time the ecu is pulled, is that true.

    Gravel and Minimum Maintenance Roads in SE MN

    I used to ride my Yamaha Raider on gravel roads it was belt drive never had a problem, and now today I rode 8 miles on gravel no problem, so for me I ain't worrying about the gravel. If the Spyder is that delicate then it has no business being on the road.

    Anyone know the trick for installing under tail cover - ST?

    I've had mine off numerous times on my 2013 ST. Never had a problem, but the two side panels it attaches to on mine will move around until this piece is in place, and secured.
