• 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.

    Too funny...it's the same 09 Spyder. I am pretty sure it's in the good shape and well worth the donation :)

    I love graphics they put on it! You can still get raffle tickets on the day of the ride. It will start at 7ish I think. They told me today that they have started with 10,000 raffle tickets and they sold 1/2 of them at this point (3 for $10 dollars)

    SPYDER RTS/ES5 TIRE PRESSURE

    I picked up spyder 2 weeks ago and I still see 20 upfront and 30 at the back. It seems dealerships use the same rule as the pro's here :clap:

    Funny reaction at a fuel stop

    I am in my mid 30's now...I do have RS vs RT but I think both machines are bad azz. I have had quite a few 20 something come up and ask a ton of questions...mostly, I have never seen anything with 2 wheels upfront :spyder2: My parents have friends in Ukraine...when he told them about the bike...

    GPS Wiring

    Just came back from dealership disappointed. I was hoping the could wire Garmin Nuvi 255w to '11 RSS...I bought Garmin Hardwire power cable wire online for their install...after an hour and a half, tech couldn't make it work...he blamed the cable. Do any of you guys know what type and brand...

    Great idea Papa! We have a bunch of folks on forum from around this area... We should try to get as many Spyders to attend Ride For Kids on July 17th...we can meet by Nielsens or Elgin Community College (main meeting place). I am going call Nielsens soon to get more details on timing, etc

    What size of of trailer do we need to haul a rs Cam Am Spyder?

    Guys, has anyone used Uhaul 5x9 or 6x12 utility trailers...I have just bought a new Spyder RS S. I am only planning to use a trailer once or twice per year so it doesn't make sense to shell out $1.5k for a regular trailer...plus storage is extra money in the winter. Thanks guys
