• 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.

    Aftermarket seats

    Hey mclovin, I'd have been interested in your bike but I managed to get one yesterday I'd been eye balling. I don't know your price but there' a member "MrGimpy" looking a spyder with a handbrake? I cut out the foam on my old GS and tried airhawk and few other things, wasn't bad but I'm thinking...

    Looking to buy, but having doubts

    Hey Mr G. Couple things to consider... If you keep track of all the spyder's for sale in your area on craigs, cycle trader, ebay etc. Watch to see which ones have been for sale for a long time, what people are asking for them and what they may be willing to take can be two different prices. Also...

    Parts swap?

    Guys Thanks all for chiming in. Was the Hindle I was most curious about as it really improved performance and stopped my old GS sounding like 1972 Wolksvagen! I had installed 1" BRP handlebar risers on the old bike but they didn't make much difference so I will be researching everything on...

    Parts swap?

    Hey guys I'm meeting a guy at my local dealership today to have his 2012 RSS inspected before I possibly buy it. I had a 2008 model and am wondering if my BRP 1' risers and my Hindle silencer will fit the 2012??? Thanks, roller

    Difference between RSS & STS

    Thanks, the diagrams couldn't have answered my query clearer. It is due to injuries I was trying to figure out the seating positions. I'd like the lower seat but the RSS has same or close to it as my old GS and that is what suits me... Thanks a million, roller

    Difference between RSS & STS

    Okay, so I know the STS is heavier and higher overall but can someone list all the major differences between the two? Is the STS seat higher? This is in reference to 2013 models cheers, roller:thumbup:

    Smoothspyder Backrest

    Backrest does look sweet and looks like the best choice for us high level paras. Do you have a rack for carrying your chair? I sold my 08 couple years ago with a rack that attached nicely to the "kewl metal" passenger backrest. I'm looking for another spyder now and like your backrest but am a...

    Help!!! Stranded in Key West with a new 2015 Limited Spyder.

    Give them a bit of a chance guys... Who knows what their situation has turned into? Might have gotten the bike to Miami only to find out the part needed is a week away! I know if something like that happened to me I'd rather be stuck in the Keys and not Miami! I also would probably bury my head...

    GS versus F3

    Guys THANKS a million! I really got way more response than expected and the quality of response was great, hitting on many areas I feared would be missed... To be honest, I always liked the looks of the RS but the F3's seating position is what caught my eye and I know would be very beneficial...

    GS versus F3

    Guys, I've been an outsider looking in for the past while. Sold my 2008 GS SE5 few years ago but always knew I'd buy another Spyder someday. I am paraplegic so had some modifications to my bike and am certainly not scared to do it all again. I'm a bit thrown at the prices I'm seeing for the new...

    RS-T floorboard switch?

    I was at the dealership today talking to the head Spyder mechanic about different year models. I had a look at what they had on the way out but couldn't get to close as they were tucked away and I'm in a wheelchair. I noticed they had what looked like an RS but with hard bags and floorboards...

    Nice ride Derek. I've started looking for another Spyder and have already decided on same color scheme as yours if I buy late model. I put a hindle on my last one and really liked it for performance reasons, bike could breathe easier and was more responsive. The sound was a good improvement...

    Member since 08 thinking about a new spyder. Please help

    Hey spyder riders. I sold my second year production 08 RS SE5 couple years back for several reasons, mainly I wasn't using it a lot at that time but when I asked myself why? I felt selling it was the right move. I am paralyzed and really wanted to get back into taking trips for a few days or...
