• 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.

    New life adventure ?

    Go for it, Mr. BLUEKNIGHT911. Enjoy it to your fullest. As for me, give me a shotgun, a hundred rounds of ammo, and a sporting clays course and I'll be grinning for hours!

    Weird question: Convert an SE5 into a manual shift? A tale of woe...

    Paddle shifter; no matter that it has sealed switches. the contacts go bad. If you have replaced the paddle shifter assembly, I would suspect that a connection in the wiring harness is faulty. Or perhaps you got a defective assembly. Or did you take a shortcut during the assembly installation?

    After market heated hand grips

    Any of the after market grip heaters will work. You will most likely have to do some wiring, etc. Pick the one that suits your fancy and follow the instructions. Not difficult to install, but time consuming. I don't recall the brand I have on my RSS, but they have multiple settings and can get...

    Keeping spder under cover outside

    My RSS stays out side a building all winter. It is in a spyder tent. I don't remember what brand it is, but I'll post it tomorrow. If I remember. Try "Bike Barn". My Spyder in the "Spyder Barn"...….

    I am happy you were able to see the humor in my statement. I hesitated to post it because one has to be sooo careful about offending people these days. But then I decided you and I have similar sense of humor and did it. I'll tip a wee dram of "th' water o' life" to you and the missus...

    Cost a bit more? Yeah, but you can afford it. You own your own business. That makes you one of the "rich" ones.:p:yes::ohyea:

    It's funny how fast things can Change...

    You are right about how things can change. After riding single track motorized vehicles for over 50 years, and a Spyder RSS for 4 years, and having been retired for 2 years, I have been on the lookout for a luxury pop-up for my wife and myself to enjoy. something we can toss the bicycles on...

    Maggie Valley???

    Y'all be careful in the wet. That wide rear tire can float in a water puddle. How do I know? Been there, done that on 221 north of Boone yesterday. Got a bit squirrely goin uphill under power and the nanny did absolutely nothing. 'Course I think she was fooled since I got out of the power...

    NORTH, TO ALASKA!

    Did not rent bike or spyder. Did the touristy fly/bus/jeep/train/cruise thing. Would love to go again, but with a different plan; I like planning my own itinerary. In fact, my wife says that every trip with me is "an adventure." It's getting a bit late in the year for me to be traveling to AK...

    AMMUNITION

    Here's the deal on Rio primers: If I order the primers and pay the hazmat fee, I will have invested more in the primers alone than if I purchase factory loaded shells. So, I will be tossing a bunch of beautiful blue with silver lettering Rio hulls. End of story.

    AMMUNITION

    I'm gonna answer my own question. I did a bit of digging and learned this: There ain't no substitute. Rio 209 primers are .245" o.d. while all the commonly available primers are .241" to .243" o.d., Winchester 209 being .242" o.d. Conclusion: If I want to use all of my Rio hulls I need to...

    AMMUNITION

    I guess this is about as off-topic as it can get. Question is this: Do any of y'all reload your own shotshells? If you do, and have reloaded RIO hulls, is there a substitute for the Rio 209 primer? I have Winchester 209 primers, but they are smaller than the rio 209 and fall out. I'm hoping...

    Could These Guys Have Driven Any Slower?

    Even at 72 years of age, I could not have done that! I would have HAD to pass them up. Even if I had been told, "no passing." After all, what are they gonna do? Tell me I will never be permitted to do that ride again? Why would I care? I'VE HAD MY THRILL!
