• 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.

    Want to install GPS on 2020 RTL, which one to order? What's the difference?

    I agree with the Zumo XT. It's been great, readable in direct sunlight, much quicker response time and redrawing the map when zooming in or out.

    Adding a fuel door to my 2015 Spyder RT seat? Any advice?

    Thanks, just take your time and check everything 3 times before you make any cuts in the vinyl or plastic. Better to make a series of small cuts, than a large one all at once.

    Adding a fuel door to my 2015 Spyder RT seat? Any advice?

    I added a fuel door to my 2016 RT-L last summer. I got a lot of good help from Mike ( blueknight). The most traumatic part was making that first cut in the upholstery. I did the pie shaped cut also, just cut it a little at a time. It would be easy to cut it too far and have it show from the...

    BATTERY TENDER CABLE ROUTING (outside of the frunk)? 2020 RTL

I made it unswitched ( hot all the time ), with my battery tender cable hanging from a hook in the...

    Another vote for the Zumo XT. Screen is bright enough to see easily even in bright sunlight.

    Fuel Door DIY

    Did you even read my post before responding ? I stated the reason. See post #53. It was not a vanity project. I agree with Pegasus1300, post #58,"Hardest part was making that 1st cut."

    Fuel Door DIY

    After several long trips with a bag strapped to the passenger seat, where it's very hard to raise the seat enough to gas up, I decided it was time to add a fuel access door. Following the example of UtahPete and Blueknight911, I was able to get one installed. I would like to thank...

    Lowering brake pedal on rt

    I had the same problem, and what I did was install Lamonster highway pegs. Then with my foot resting on the highway peg I can operate the brake with my heel. It's been working pretty well for me.

    Strobe brakes (combining spyderpops and tricled?)

    I use a "smart light bar" from Admore Lighting. It has a white strobe that pulses several times when you first apply the brake, and a sophisticated accelerometer sensor to detect rapid deceleration (from throttle release or downshifting) and will activate the Light Bar brake light automatically...

    What's the Best Phone Holder for Lamonster's Spyder Cuff?

    I like the Tacform best also. I had used the X-Grip first, and it just never seemed secure enough without the rubber band holder. You can insert and remove your phone with one hand with the Tacform. And it holds rock solid with no worry of it falling out. I mounted it on the Lamonster RT...

    First freeway drive

    You have to have a light touch on the handle bars. In the beginning most people have a death grip and that makes you over steer. Relax your grip. Watch at the vehicle ahead of you and not the road or stripes right in front of you. What part of San Antonio are you in. We're on the north side .

    I'm having the same problem. On my IMAC ( Catalina) I can connect Garmin Express to my XT and do the map updates, but it will not connect to Basecamp. On my 2012 MacBook Air ( Catalina) it will connect with both Express and Basecamp. When I do connect with Express on my IMAC, even though...
