• 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.

    God Bless America!

    God Bless America--We must continue the fight to remain free We should bless America daily. We must also work daily to keep this great nation free. Right now complacency and the sense of entitlement is running this great country into the ground. Nothing is really free whether it is freedom or...

    modified seat

    The Kontour seat is always cool I have been riding on a Kontour seat since early this season and have found it to be very comfortable. The hottest day that I have ridden was about 90 degrees but the seat was cooler than anything else I have tried including my Airhawk. It is comfortable even...

    HD Bike Stolen.

    Make the thief serve his prison time as active duty in a war zone I think that if they ever catch the thief, make him serve his prison time as an active duty military person in a war zone!!! Maybe he will then understand what a Purple Heart really means.

    Fatal Spyder crash in Oregon

    Sad News-Ride like your life depends on it!!! Sad news that this type of accident happened. Always 'Expect the Unexpected' and realize that people do not always think or drive rationally. I think this problem becomes worse daily with cell phones, texting and other distractions. Unfortunately we...

    stop light trigger

    Turn off and restart bike An old friend of mine tells me he just turns off his two wheeler and restarts. He claims the 'magnetic field' created by the starter will activate the light sensors. I did use that successfully several times on my previous two wheel ride, but have not needed it on the...

    Close call....

    Great Defensive Driving!!!!! I taught defensive driving training for years before retiring, working with drivers and management people at UPS. It always pays to drive well ahead of yourself and 'leave yourself an out'. It helps to practice what you might do in dangerous situations so you can do...

    Suggestions for BRP on the RS model on the 2012's...

    Hand Brake, Floorboards, Electric Plugs I have to say the list of requested options has been pretty thorough. The hand brake, floorboards, electric outlets are ones that seem pretty popular. How about redesigning the heat on the feet issue and exhaust to be more comfortable. Better MPG would...

    Man gets "bitten" by Spyder scam!

    Watch Craigslist too!! When I was selling my two wheel bike, had several scam type hits on Craiglists also. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

    Anyone use these mirror extensions?

    They work Great!! Lots better than looking at my gloves in the mirrors. 4 inch risers put the mirrors right on my handlebars, but now I can see the road again. This a mod that make a lot of sense in the safety aspect.

    STALLING SPYDER

    Stalling Stinks My 2008 SE5 RS was acting poorly after warming up and really hesitated taking off from a stop at times. It ran good at higher rpm and speeds, but would almost stall when taking off at times. I checked plugs, plug wires, relays, vacuum connections, battery condition and...

    SOLUTION FOR HOT SEATS WHILE RIDING?

    Kontour Seat I started using my Kontour Seat earlier this spring. On a recent 90 degree day, I left the Spyder in full sun for about 45 minutes before getting on it. The seat was not at all hot and was actually very comfortable. The stock seat would have been really hot plus had no air flow...

    Picked up my spare relay

    Relay number is VJ28-95F24-S01 The part number on the OEM and replacement relay is in the title above. I do not know if it will work on the RT models. I wrote down the number from the relays in my 2008 SE5 Spyder since I did not see specifics in the operators guide. I did ask if he carried...

    Hand grips

    Black ISO Grips are nice I used the black Kuryakyn ISO grips modified to work with my Throttlemeister. Had to drill out the outer end to fit the Throttlemeister shaft on the right side, but works great. The left side fits right on the stock 7/8 inch handlebar.

    12 volt adapter

    Just a thought I use a Battery Tender and have the quick connect plug lead under my seat. Had previously bought a 12v outlet to use on another bike that plugs into the Battery Tender leads on the Spyder. It works just like any other 12v receptacle and I do not have to cut into anything. You can...

    Need Part Number Help and Engine 'Stumble' issues

    Running Good now I added fuel additive and filled up with premium this morning. Took two short rides today with emphasis on stop and go driving to get the temp up. Got up to five bars this evening with stop and go traffic, but no problems at all. The Spyder ran great in town and a little...
