• 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.

    lidlox

    I am contemplating buying the Lidlox product but have one question for those of you that have them. Do the helmets hang so low that they hit the side of the spyder especially when the wind is blowing? Thanks.

    Long Rides, Shawn Smoak and a "Perfect" Touring Bike

    Shawn I have had Shawn do tires, services and warranty work on my 2014 RTS and can say that I have never had a technician more capable at what he does than Shawn. He has a wealth of information and likes to share it with you. I have said many times I hope Shawn never retires as long as I own...

    Bumpskid

    Is there a video out that shows the installation of the Bumpskid on a 2014 RTS. Maybe it is so straight forward that one is not needed. Would appreciate seeing one if possible. Thanks Larry

    highway foot rests

    I ride a 2014 RTS and before I buy highway pegs I would like to hear from some of you that have an opinion about the Rivco Brand of highway rests. They look well made and designed very well for the Spyder. Thank You, Larry

    6x12 trailer

    trailer I had a Interstate 6x14 foot single axle trailer with a drop down ramp and because of the reveal on each side of the door my syder did not fit. Bought a 7x14 but had to go to a double axle. Found that the double axle pulls a lot better.

    air filter

    only what i read I am only responding to what was written on the forum by orange spyder man. If his statement about a air filter coasting $1000.00 is incorrect then he should certainly correct that staetment. It is ridculous to write and leave staements like that on the forum. lmadsen

    Oregon dealers

    my experience I purchased my RTS at the Sublimity dealer and it turned out to be one of the worst experiences I have ever had while buying a vehicle. They are new to Spyders but the salesman was uninformed, parts and service gave invalid information and management was also uninformed. Bought my...

    bug screen

    My water pump had a leak so was getting replaced. I noticed that after the tech had taken the nose off the bike that there were a lot of bugs in the radiators. I thought that unusual because I only have 3300 miles and not many of those were put on during bug season. As you look at the grill of...

    checking cooling

    Does anyone else have trouble seeing the level of your radiator coolant. I thought I had been smelling hot coolant after a ride so I decided to check the coolant level. The problem is I was unable to determine if I had coolant in the tank because of where the tank is located and the color of...

    I posted this message in general discussion but I will post it here also. My trailer has a 5 pin plug and the BRP hitch wiring has a 4 pin plug. Is there an adapter that will connect this situation.
