• 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.

    What Kind of Rider are you?

    I have always been an all weather rider. Temperature is not an issue. I live west of Death Valley and deal with a lot of extreme heat. When it's 115+ we ride early morning, but some times there is no escaping. Prefer riding in the winter. We ride locally in leather, on our further ventures, we...

    My new Daylong saddle by Russell

    I remember Bill and have seen several of his seats. Back in the mid 90's, I started doing a number of IBA rides and met a lot of the riders at different events. They were more Daylong saddles than anything. Also remember when Bill had to sell the business and signed a waiver stating he could not...

    Anyone installed the Afterburner tail-light mod?

    I did the install, was plug and play after all the disassembly........ Went with the brake module, like all the different options. Really like the flag, get a lot of likes from it. Being visible is a good thing!

    Open trunk banner would not go out - anyone else?

    On my 21 RTL with 19K, the banner on the display would not go out. Pulled the brake light off the trunk to better expose the micro switch. All looked clean and I could clearly hear it clicking. It appears to be a well-sealed unit, and I sprayed a good contact cleaner and worked the switch, but...

    Anyone here ever need Garmin service? Cost? Any experiences?

    All the Garmin models have different force load requirements. I spend a lot of time on ADV. There are some series GPS geeks there. On a recent trip with my XT, it did the same thing. Read on ADV to hold your finger on the lower right corner til it re-boots. Worked like a champ. Worth a try

    Automated mailed ticket.... But I wasn't there!

    I received a letter from a toll road outfit claiming I blew off a toll on a road some 300+ miles away. Bill is now $45. and will be another $100. in 10 days if I don't pay it. I responded claiming I have never been there, but also included a picture of my Spyder asking them to compare it to the...

    How about heated gear - what's your favorite? Any other suggestions?

    Been using a Widder vest for some 25 years, the wife has a Aerostich vest. I personally prefer a vest over a sleeved jacket. Have never needed socks, pants or gloves. Have traveled to Alaska 6 times, crossed the Arctic circle, so I'm not a fair weather rider

    2024 Deadwood 3 Wheeler Rally - New Site & Registration open!

    This last year was our first time for the rally, but not the first time in the Black Hills during the summer. We were not affected by the heat, maybe the humidity, but is what it is. We had a great time and will be coming back next year for sure

    Seat Strut won't hold up seat - any non-OEM replacements?

    Thanks Pete for the idea! I'm having a Russell seat made this December, already thought the shock would not be strong enough to hold it, so I also pulled the top bolt off and disconnected the key latch. I used a short piece of 1/4" drip hose, heated the end so it would go over the ferule and...

    Anyone installed a Sirius XM radio receiver on their RT? Any hints?

    I also use the XM app on my phone along with Pandora and MP3 files. Bluetooth works great and was easy to set up! One account works everywhere I want it

    In my case, I have grill covers, no bugs or trash anywhere, just a faulty relay

    Has anybody installed the OEM adjustable wind deflectors on 2020+ RTL?

    I recently installed the Bakers and did feel the difference. Will admit, not a big fan on the looks, but they do help. I live outside of Death Valley, and it does get hot, so anyone running both OEM and Bakers?

    '21+ Radiator Fans not turning off - stuck relay! Blocked grills a cause?

    This happened to my 21 RTL with 15K on it. Was 300 miles from home. Disconnected the relay at the hotel. Was going home the next morning and was on a Sunday with no parts houses available, including on the route home. Remote Nevada. Rode home without it, just kept an eye on the temp. No stop and...

    Any Tips for reducing road trip costs?

    So how cheap do we want to go? Mom and Pop motels outside of congested areas are reasonable, with state campgrounds the cheapest; except out west, where you can throw a fart sack on a side road when you're in the sticks for free. Oh, did you say you also wanted a bathroom? A frozen burrito from...

    Deadwood 3Wheel Rally, 2023 - Getting ready to leave!

    Was heading to Deadwood, but a check engine light came on, went into the limp mode, although the banner didn’t come on. Was just north of Vernal on 191. The dealership there is coming to pick me up, hopefully a easy fix, but not happy being on the side of road at least help is coming

    Garmin 550 not recognized by Garmin Express, but does charge - any ideas?

    Are you running a PC or a Mac? Restarting your computer is a good start. The best source of information I have found is on ADV. https://www.advrider.com/f/forums/mapping-navigation.37/
