• 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.

    Lights turning off on full-lock Left - Anyone else had this?

    My 2011 Spyder RT has a connection problem I think, the lights all work when I turn on the Ign. switch, but if I turn the front wheels all the way to the Left all the lights go off.... turn back just a little they all come back on. I am a retired Mechanic, and I am pretty sure it's just a bad...

    Doing 1st oil change (Spyder RT) I have a few questions (((Pics)))

    Yessssss, and as for myself, there is no way I would ever pay $200 or $300 for a Manual. I have a filing cabinet in my garage at home withmanuals of most motor cycles and most cars and trucks I have ever owned, and none of them was ever more than $50. I mean, if you opened a Spyder Shop...

    2015 RTS Belt drifting a bit after tire change

    I traded for my Spyder a year ago this month... ( July ) and I don't think I ever noticed this kinda high pitch little whine from near the rear wheel until about 2 or 3 months ago, when I put a new set of tires on it. I did all the work myself, except I took the wheels to a shop to have them...
