• 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.

    Trailer wire harness

    trailer module I have had two bad BRP modules replaced by the dealer. I finally fixed the problem by putting in a unit I bought from a trailer dealer ,and running new positive and ground connection from the battery. I have two differed trailers I pull with my 2014 STS and no more problems. Allen

    Anyone have this issue?

    lcd panel I have the same problem with my yellow jacket. The screen is one of the worst displays i have ever seen. Too much info on a small space. The sun really makes it hard to see and a reflection makes it impossible. Do they use the same display on their water crafts? Allen

    I'm installing a power distribution box on my 2014 sts 5 speed manual Spyder. The dealer installed a power plug in the frunk pre delivery.

    setting pre load

    shocks it is a 2014 STS 5 speed . All three have threaded adjustment. on two wheels there are ways to set up the shocks by how much compression happens as you sit on the bike. I take it there is nothing like that for the Spyder. What do people do?
