• 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.

    Back from Fun Adventure on the Trusty 2010 RS

    This is the 10th year of a Memorial Ride for my wife who passed in 2014. The same buddies have ridden along now for 8 years. This year we rode to Northern Wisconsin, then through Northern Minnesota, on along the Canadian border in North Dakota, then Montana and into the mountains of Wyoming...

    2010 RS Still Roadtripping Like a Champ

    Back from 2500 miles out to Niagra and then around Ontario. 2010 is still running strong and up to the challenge of seeing new scenery with me. The smoke in the air was heavy at times from Canadian fires. Time to wash the gear so I don't smell like a big smoked summer sausage. Hope everyone...

    Winter Blues in WI - what's the best new/replacement battery?

    We are still a long way off to riding season up here on the Tundra. My Spyder (RS 2010) has a 6 year old battery and it is time to replace it. What is the best battery for it now? Any good vendors to recommend purchase through. Thanks and I'm jealous of you folks down south LOL

    Back from Weeklong Tour

    Rode through IA, MO, OK, AZ and through some of the worst rain ever near Hot Springs. We took refuge under a church breezeway for 2 hours and then in a break found a hotel in Benton to wait it out for the day. My 2010 RS is still running flawlessly across the 2600 miles traveled on this ride...

    Short roundtrip in Southern Norway, my Spyder RTS 2012 and friend with a BMW 1250 GS.

    Thanks for the peek into Norway. I hope to get there someday. My ancestors were from Arendal (Oyestad) in Agder (formally Aust-Agder). I'd like to see where they embarked for America on a Schooner my ancestor, a ship builder, helped craft. He must have been okay at his work as they made it...

    Need Helmet Help. Considering HJC & GMax - any issues with either?

    Sorry you had that experience... i have the 54s modular and the latching mechanism has never failed. It it were to, I'd toss it in the trash too. So far, this model of their helmet has been super dependable.

    Need Helmet Help. Considering HJC & GMax - any issues with either?

    I have the GMAX 54s and have really enjoyed it. I just ordered a new headliner as after a number of washings the padding at the forehead is no longer firm. I also put an internal fog shield on the visor that helped with fogging. The helmet flows air well and the detent lets me ride with the...

    Oil change today, using Rotella T6 & BajaRon's kit!

    Just changed oil for the season, again with Rotella 5/40 T6. The old oil after a season of use looked great on the dump...clean, nice coloring and no wear filings to discover. All set for another season. Thanks Ron for the help with the filter parts and quick service. Remember... where you...

    This is how I still have Dry feet!

    On rides where the weather is iffy, always wear my pants with a rain barrier built in and elastic cuffs. They snug over the waterproof boot and have never had to worry about wetness getting through. The jacket is the same. It is nice not having to get off the bike and dress a second time for...

    Interesting news out of BRP on electrification.

    Really not interested for a long time due to long distance touring trips. I don't want to have to sit and recharge for a long time after going 200 - 300 miles. Also, I don't plan to hunt for charging stations at the off-the-beaten-path areas to be explored. It will be a long while and using...

    Each June I ride with 3 of my friends on a memorial ride. 2 of us had wives who passed at younger ages. (I'm fortunate to have remarried a wonderful woman). This year the hope is to ride down into Oklahoma before heading back east into the Ozarks. Anyone from Oklahoma or who has toured there...

    What Brand Engine oil do you use

    Cannot find T6 5/40 here in WI. Shortage of that product everywhere I guess. Good thing I stocked up last spring! :)

    Time for a new rear kenda

    Sounds like you are a lucky one... Kendas among the people on the board have been very inconsistent in quality - out of roundness, material - someone must have known what they were doing the day your rear tire was made :) You'll have to send a thank you card to China.
