• 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.

    Spyder Shock Adjustments

    I adjusted my fronts this morning to 4 and back to 5. I am 5 11 and 215 lbs. I like the ride on the front but may step back a notch on the rear I felt it was a little stiff riding to work. I would like to get my wife on th eback and see how that feels first though

    On the fence

    Although the RT looks nice I still think i would have bought and RS and made it more comfrotable for touring on. I would really like for BRP to make something in between the RS and RT. More like an RS loaded with quick detachables but an upright seating position, cruise, etc. Now THAT is a bike...

    About to order a Sypder. Final opinions please.

    I agree.. ride it for awhile to decide what you want/need. EG i ride my bike to work daily and while my wife also rides with me on weekends getting her a backrest is lower on the pole than getting the hadlebars pulled back for me. If, of course, we ere planning a long trip that would change...

    Problem with the front bearing/hub..maybe

    100 miles away is th ebiggest reason. Two jobs and college football take up all my free time also LOL. If I feel like the problem is serious i will eventually trailer it down there. I am monitoring it for now. I will also be honest with you after some experiences I have already had at the...

    Problem with the front bearing/hub..maybe

    yeah I checked the play and didnt sense anything wrong there. I did it with the tire on and off and for some reason I could only get the squeal/squeak when the tire was on. i thought it might be a dragging brake too but this wheel hub seems 'tighter" or tougher to turn than the other side. i am...

    Audible click when braking to a stop.

    low speed ABS activation Well I lifted the bike today and could not duplicate the click. But after talking to some pople in the know about ABS brakes they felt it may be whats called a "low speed ABS activation" and it is often caused by bad connections to the speed sensors either due to...

    Problem with the front bearing/hub..maybe

    So I finally pulled the tire off and took a good look at the clicking noise my front end was making but also I wanted to see if there was a problem with the brake dragging or something as this same side has developed a squeak/squeal at low speeds. After raising it up I found that it seemed that...

    1st ride & a question

    I agree too with what’s been said about over steering. I have 2000 miles on mine and I still have my good days and bad days with trying to over control it. I must admit it seems like a tough ride to get a consistent feel on but I am sure it will come in time. I also think that because the...
