• 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.

    Two Incredible Rides This Summer

    I just completed the second of two long rides this summer: (1) the first (three weeks) was from Knoxville, TN into the Canadian Rockies; (2) the second (one week) was in the wilds of West Virginia which ended on Saturday. If you'd like to see pics here is a link to the Rockies ride...

    No Help In Kalispell

    Note: This was written in Montana while on a 7000 mile trip to the Canadian Rockies; I returned two days ago. I was unable to post it while on the road and will do so now. The contents is relevant even though I am home after a spectacular trip. This is a story about two Jerry's. Jerry 1 works...

    In Praise of stevedfive

    There are, thank goodness, a small group of folks here who will do anything to help a Spyder owner fix a problem. These members drive considerable distances, spend hours on the phone, post informative videos and just generally make themselves available for those of us who can't easily fix our...

    Electrical Noise -- Long

    SpyderAnn01.... I wasn't clear in this response. What I should have said is that I have the BUILT-IN speakers turned off. Rattigan-Roger wondered if I had enabled the setting where the built-in speakers shift the volume down when you slow down and increase when at highway speed. On my setup...

    Electrical Noise -- Long

    Electrical Noise -- Long

    Yes, I have the Zumo 665 and it has the latest upgrade. I have not tested the gps mic (the previous installation where the gps directions were sent through the gps speakers was the reason why we changed the handle bar connector. Now the gps directions come through the helmet so I assumed that...

    Electrical Noise -- Long

    On my 2014, I have the CB, mp3, gps comm system installed. On the 2014 and the previous 2013, I had CB, radio, mp3 and gps but have never had a working iPhone as part of the system. Just this week I had my dealer install a better gps connection thinking that it would solve the problem; it...

    We did it!!!!

    Congratulations, Jim and Nancy That is a wonderful achievement and I know how hard you worked keeping your Spyder in great shape to get that far. No one, that I know of, has ridden that far on one bike with the same motor. You should both be proud about what you -- and your Spyder -- have done...

    Vermont?

    Route 100 in Vermont For me, one of the best roads to ride in VT is Route 100. Wonderful twisties, farms, meadows, streams -- mile after mile. See here: http://www.linkvermont.com/route100_vermont.php http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vermont_Route_100 or google it. It winds from the very south...

    RT CB Radio Problem Update

    GoPro Mount

    What did you place between the ball on your bracket and the GoPro ball? I can't quite identify it on the list of RAM mounts. Wonder if there is room for both the GoPro and a RAM X-Mount for an iPhone. ken tompkins

    Factory Tour Was awesome!

    Factory Tour! There is not much that I can add to what has already been posted about the tour. I intended to write something last night but was too tired after an 11 hour ride home. To say that it was fascinating is to understate it. Like others I was part of the 2008 Homecoming; at that time...

    Atlantic City Cycle Center -- Great Dealer

    I wanted to add my dealer to the list of "good guys". They just delivered my Yellow 2014 yesterday and they had installed both BRP and after-market accessories that I had provided. They even sent me off with a full tank of gas. So here is a shout-out to Ed Reyes (General Manager), Justin Hammel...
