• 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.

    Quick mileage update...

    Gas Mileage If your bike doesn't require premium gas, don't waste your money on it. Now ethanol content can affect gas mileage since the alchohol has less BTU than gasoline. The higher the ethanol content, the lower your mpg should be. If your vehicle isn't made for E-85, you shouldn't be...

    Got my SE-5 back!

    Glad you got your SE5 back. I hope your fixes stay fixed and the rest of the SE5 owners are either lucky or getting theirs fixed. As of right now, I am staying away from the SE5 model and eyeballing the SM5 instead. D. Reinhard, Ohio

    Quirks just with the Auto

    SM5's at a dealer up here There's a dealer about 50 miles from here with 2009 Spyders at what look to be discount prices. He has the Silver/Black SM5 09 at $14,999 and the Red/Black or Yellow/Black at $15,499. Yes Spring is getting closer, and yes they'll probably be gone quickly. D...

    Corbin Pacific for Sale?

    Resale & Corbin Accessories Yeah, that would be better to just remove the Corbin stuff & sell seperately. I did keep my stock seats & pipes. Around here in Ohio bikes don't start selling well until April due to Old Man Winter. It's late February, so it won't be long. D. Reinhard, Ohio

    Lamonster's paint job If the Spyder is going to be anything like the M109R, it'll be awesome. D. Reinhard, Ohio

    6,600 miles since 9/27/08. No record! But, I ride when I can..

    Good to hear positives!! I am glad to be reading positve posts about the Spyder. I have been reading about all the SE5 problems as well as a few other ones and wondering, having second thoughts about getting one. My dealer has a silver and a yellow SM5 as well as a new red SE5. I demoed a...

    Advice for son's bike

    Son's first bike. I would say get an inexpensive used cruiser 500cc to 750cc so there isn't going to be a big deal when he drops it (he will, we all did). Definitely get him to an MSF course and also to an empty parking lot to practice, practice, and practice. Dirt bike are ok but dirt isn't...

    Corbin Pacific for Sale?

    Corbin 4 Sale?? I haven't bought a Spyder yet, although I demoed an SM5 last September. My concern is that my present ride has Corbin saddlebags & trunk, which cost $3K new. I just wonder if they will have any added value to my bike when I sell or trade it in. The depreciation and this poor...

    2009 SE5 Owners still having shifting problems?

    2009 SE5 I haven't bought a Spyder yet, although I demoed a silver/black SM5 back in September. My dealer now has a new Red 09 SE5 in his showroom, but all these posts regarding shifting problems are making me very hesitant. D. Reinhard, Ohio

    Strike 3

    This stuff is making me wait. I have been considering a Spyder ever since my demo ride in September. However since I have been reading up on it by visiting the forums, the problems people are having makes me want to wait. I can understand a new model having "teething problems" in it's first...

    traditional biker wave?

    The Wave Thing It's really not a big deal to me, even though I generally always wave. If they do ok, if they don't ok.

    Buying a new Spyder

    Red SM5 for $15,000 There's a dealer in Cleveland OH with a red 2008 SM5 for $15 grand. I think I can handle a clutch having owned 15 motorcycles in my lifetime.

    Santiago canyon ride, CA

    Big Ten I'm an Ohio Buckeye fan and follow the Big Ten. Yeah Penn State didn't show up till way too late in the game. Michigan State lost to Georgia as well. Iowa was the only win over a weak ACC opponent S.C.. I can only hope my Buckeyes show up with their "A" game on Monday night against...
