• 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.

    Shock Setting

    Where do you who have adjustable shocks usually keep them set? My service manual says for 200 lb rider with passenger you should set them at max. This makes for a very harsh ride on my 2011 RT. What notch do you have yours set and do you adjust them often?

    Your Input Needed

    I just received an email and it seems the $13,000he was quoted earlier was a mistake. When he went to buy it they jacked the price $2000. He wound up putting some money on a 2009. Got a good deal with 3 years warranty and a new rear tire. 6800 miles. Raining here today so probably won't be...

    Home made GPS at Spyderfest

    CoPilot I've ran this program since 1990 when I bought my first RV. It can be a bit frustrating at times but generally works fine. Make sure you use a device with a good GPS chip or it can be a bit slow. I've got it loaded on two phones, two tablets and a laptop.

    Home made GPS at Spyderfest

    GPS I run a program called CoPilot from http://www.alk.com/. All the maps are stored on your device so you do not have to be connected for it to work.

    Another Park Brake Problem

    Finally got some time to check it out and you were absolutely right. The socket the switch plugs into was loose. It appears it is only held on from friction from the pins. Reseated switch and everything works just fine. Thanks for the help.

    2011 RT with 1500 miles. Went to the Eye Doctor yesterday and had to park on a slight incline. Since I ride a manual trans I normally just leave it in first gear and do not set the park brake but since it was on an incline I tried to no avail to set the park brake. When you push the rocker...

    I am 75 years old and just bought my first bike ever. I found a 2011 RT with 640 miles for a little over 12K. I try to ride a little every day and am slowly working my way up to highway speeds. I say go for it. Enjoy the ride.
