• 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 St 12v plug questions

    Pry the center of the strange fastener up with a flat blade screwdriver. Then the outer piece will come out. It is similar to a plastic pop river. There is a special tool for removing the center piece but you do not need it. Do a search. I posted pics of the factory wires for the plug. You do...

    Interesting Ride

    Yes, the real Smokey Bear (no "the") is buried in Capitan NM. He was found just a few miles north of Capitan. There is a great ride from Roswell to Capitan on Pine Lodge Road, about 80 miles. Lincoln NM is not too far from Capitan. It is where Billy the Kid shot two deputies in his escape...

    Interesting Ride

    Had an interesting ride yesterday. I was up in the mountains and decided to take the road from Ruidoso to Cloudcroft NM. This is about a 30 mile twisty road with great scenery. After a few miles I reached a point where the road was being worked on. Brand new chip seal. The bike was sliding...

    Wanted F3 Rims

    Years ago I sold some tires and rims on eBay. I found out it was much cheaper to send four separate tires and rims then try to ship them in one box. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    So BMWLarry how did the install go?

    Only need to get one side of the Spyder up 22". And only for a couple minutes. I raised the front of the bike about a foot. Used two tire/rim combos under the front wheels. I removed all the hardware, then raised one side higher with a floor jack. This put a side load on the tire/rim under...

    Brake light stays on

    I shaved the pedal stop on mine. Did not fix the problem. I believe they also changed the mounting bracket on mine.

    Cruise control problem

    There are two springs in the back of the switch. One just holds the switch in the on/off position. You can feel the spring move when you slide the switch from off to on. The other spring is actually pushes the "on" switch. If the spring is too weak, the cruise may not stay on. This is what...

    Belt alignment test

    On my 2013, I get codes and the orange screen of death. But driving it after checking the belt clears the codes and the orange screen. So, I'm guessing you will get a code but it will clear withing a mile or two.
