• 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.

    Know of any 'slip-on' Seat Covers for RT's?

    Good suggestions... The padding under the leather is fine, no problems, so I don't need the egg carton stuff. My lambskin covers the seat completely (except for the passenger's back piece). It looks great and is very comfortable in summer and winter. But I have to put it on and take it off...

    That's a good solution, but my budget is so tight, it squeaks. LOL

    Know of any 'slip-on' Seat Covers for RT's?

    I have a lambskin cover that fits both rider and passenger areas, but not the vertical part of the passenger seat back. The lambskin is comfortable, and I like it very much. However, it isn't supposed to get wet, and my Spyder lives outdoors year-round. I put it on and take it off for every...

    I'm broke...sounds good, but I'm looking much lower. LOL

    Know of any 'slip-on' Seat Covers for RT's?

    Thanks, but I just need a slip-on type cover. I have a lambskin cover that I use most of the time, but I 'd like something for all weather. :-)

    Know of any 'slip-on' Seat Covers for RT's?

    The seat on my 2012 RT SE5 is structurally sound, but the "pleather" has cracked, ripped and looks terrible. I have a lambskin cover that I put over the seat when I ride, but it can't be allowed to get wet. I can't afford a whole new seat (and don't need one...just the surface material). I...

    Grumbling Noise When Coming to a Stop

    Could be the front sprocket. I don't have a home-shop or the required tools, so had to take it to the dealer. Turned out to be the front sprocket. They replaced it, and the noise went away completely. You may be able to check the condition of the sprocket yourself. Some of the posts above...

    Where Are Battery Posts on 2012 RT?

    I'm thankful for the blessing! I can't even begin to determine why it started easily after refusing to start with the associated issues. I will do that long ride once the weather allows. Maybe a nice ride along the Outer Banks and lunch at the Black Pelican... :doorag: I try to be careful...

    Good point. I'll check my tender and see if it can detect the difference.

    Where Are Battery Posts on 2012 RT?

    THE UNBELIEVABLE HAS HAPPENED! My Spyder STARTED with no issues at all! After replacing the two large relays yesterday, I tried starting it, and got nothing. This afternoon, I went out to do try some small relay swapping for fault isolation, but figured I'd try to start the bike before...

    Where Are Battery Posts on 2012 RT?

    Great info! Thank You! I replaced the two large relays (left and right sides) in the frunk fuse case, and when I tried the key in start position, the needles came back to normal position, and the center gauge came on. Still no start. I'm going to try your suggestion with the smaller black...

    Where Are Battery Posts on 2012 RT?

    I checked all the fuses, both in the frunk and under the seat. I pulled each one, examined it, and reseated it firmly. All were okay, and none were burned out. I also pulled relays in the frunk, one by one, and reseated them. I couldn't see any issues with them, but don't know how to test...

    Where Are Battery Posts on 2012 RT?

    When I put in the key and turned it to the start position, the needles spun from bottom to top, and stayed there. The center display didn't light up at all. Normally, the needles spin up to top, then return to bottom, and the center display lights up. The needles didn't move at all when I...

    Where Are Battery Posts on 2012 RT?

    After unsuccessful efforts to jump start my RT, I think I have either a completely DEAD AS A DOORNAIL battery, or a bad fuse somewhere along the line. With the jumper cables hooked up (with the truck engine off), and the key in the Spyder and turned to start position, there was absolutely no...

    Good suggestion. I'll give that a try tomorrow. I have some long and thick jumper cables that will reach. I tried jumping it today with a Halo device...12V, 600 amps...and got nothing. I did notice that the MPH gauge and tach were "stuck" at the 12 o'clock position, and didn't move at all...

    Its slightly different on the 2012, but I've found the positive post, and will try the jump start tomorrow. Thanks!

    Where Are Battery Posts on 2012 RT?

    Thanks! I've located the positive port with the long nut, and can clamp the positive cable to that while I clamp the negative cable to the frame or some heavy metal. Yes, I'm at home (thank God!), and it's in the hi 20's, so I'll wait until tomorrow to try a jump start. LOL

    Thanks again. I've located the positive post for the positive jumper cable, and will hook the negative jumper cable to a metal part of the frame. Hopefully that will do the trick. :-)
