• 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.

    How to tell when it is time to replace your battery

    Slow starting, occasional clicking, poor load-test results, low voltage check, erratic electrical issues/codes. Every battery I have is hooked up to a smart tender - keeps them topped off/desulfated and ready at all times. At the five year mark I usually replace a battery. I do carry a jump...

    What trailer for getting Spyder home from a far away dealer?

    If you decide to trailer it home - bigger the better. An open trailer will give you more tie down options, unless you have a enclosed trailer with tie downs installed. Bigger trailer gives you more room to get around bike and tie down properly. If you haven't already, download operators guide...

    New Sea to Sky missing front speakers!

    Been there before myself. Time is short and and things to do. When I picked up any new car & bike from dealerships I refused "orientation". They said come back anytime if any questions/issues/problems. I was good to go since I read the manual a couple times while waiting for build &...

    Gold Plugs - are the torque specs the same as OEM?

    So how do the Show Chrome engine & transmission drain plugs from Lamonster Garage compare to Gold Plugs? Do they "break" like I'm hearing the Gold Plugs do? Or is the magnetic thinner making the thread wall thicker?

    Something new from Harley

    I'm not a off road bike rider but I give HD a thumbs up for introducing new types of bikes for consumers. I've had many different HD models over the years and was never left stranded or experienced a breakdown. Like everything with an engine - PM is the key. Will keep my 2 wheeler until I...

    First oil change

    I glanced at the OM and Cam Am recommends oil & filter changes every year or 6k miles, whichever comes first. I like to do my first oil/filter a bit earlier than that, but at least at a minimum go by what the manual states.

    Battery terminals loose

    First thing I do after a purchase (car - motorcycle - tractor) that includes a starter battery is add star washers, tighten down terminals, and give a good saturation charge. Then recheck at each service.

    2018 RTL Need help Sitting for 9 months

    I am leaning more towards the battery most likely dead. If battery can be saved - I recommend a good saturation charge. If you can get it started, add some fuel stabilizer and top off fuel with fresh fuel. Good luck and keep us posted.

    Fuel stabilizer comparison test

    I run the cruddy e10 in all my vehicles including my motorcycle - been doing so for too many years to count. Treat the cycle and all small engines with Sea Foam occasionally and when going into any type of hibernation. So far no issues over the years so I am sticking with the SF. Just pick...
