• 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 did you do to your Spyder today?

    Yes sir, good eye. All of the reflectors have been replaced with LEDs. I also added a light package to the top case. She's illuminated very well.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I picked this up last month and just moved the tools into it that I had rolled up in a towel in the frunk. This rolled up small enough to fit into the saddle bag along with the rain gear and half cover. That saddlebag is stuffed, but closes with a small assist. https://a.co/d/fV8kUTz

    Good looking cover for your grape! I really like the shaded visor.

    My Jump Port installation

    That looks super convenient, hope it doesn't get in your way too much. I use the frunk to store my helmet and I'm sure I'd hit or drag across those lugs allot.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Installed footboard lights over the weekend. Got everything finished in time to tuck the Spyder back into the corner and get my truck back in the garage before the snowfall. Very pleased with the results. Before I got finished with the lights, I made a misstep and rolled the hell out of my...

    Another rider needed a jump start, which got me thinking... Here's my better way!

    Very good idea Clawman, thanks for sharing. Mind sharing the item info from Amazon?

    FYI - Brake Rod Linkage bolt installed backwards blocks the Clutch Drain Plug!

    I just ran into this as well. Swapped the bolt end for end no problem.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    We took advantage of the abnormally warm day and went for a ride over to our favorite local wing joint. When we got home, I performed an oil change for the first time since the break-in change that was done by the dealership. I'll parrot the comments made regarding the oil change kit supplied by...

    Anyone besides me slowing down to Prolong Rides?

    Wander Mode, I like that tag. This what we do when we're not quite finished riding for the day.

    I’m getting frustrated with the belt vibration - any ideas to help?

    I'm very interested to hear how it works for you. I couldn't get the vibration to reappear at all while I was solo. My ride was only about 5 miles, but it gives me cause to be optimistic.

    I’m getting frustrated with the belt vibration - any ideas to help?

    Safe travels brother! I'm hoping to dial things in a bit more by relaxing the belt tension a bit, but it'll be a couple weeks.

    I’m getting frustrated with the belt vibration - any ideas to help?

    So this afternoon I reduced the rear tire air pressure from 21 to 18 PSI, then rode over to pick up my wife at her job. I rode solo on a 70 MPH highway and was very pleased to find that the vibration wasn't there. I slowed down, sped up, rolling through the rpm range and didn't feel a thing...

    I’m getting frustrated with the belt vibration - any ideas to help?

    We're planning to ride tomorrow after work, but before we go I'll drop the air pressure from 21 to 18 PSI without making any changes to belt tension and see if it has any effect.

    I’m getting frustrated with the belt vibration - any ideas to help?

    Hi Peter, sorry for the slow response, it's been a busy week. You may notice that I responded to the tire size rpms per mile chart that Ron shared which I think answers some of your questions. I did install a GPS on the bike and confirmed that the speedometer is much more accurate now with the...
