• 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.

    Works Performance Shocks - Good Product, Poor Customer Service

    I purchased a new Spyder RT on January 24 and had my dealer order a pair of Works Performance front shocks at that time so the shocks could be included in the financing. I discussed the purchase beforehand with Tom Edison of the WP sales department regarding the custom setup on the shocks...

    Airhawk Pad for Passenger

    I'm interested in purchasing an Airhawk seat pad for my wife to use on our RT. None of the sizes listed on the Airhawk website seem likely to fit the RT rear seat well. Has anyone tried an Airhawk for the passenger and if so what size? There are several favorable comments about the Airhawk on...

    Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10W-40 UPDATE

    Roger, If I were in that situation (only 75 miles on the oil) I would change the oil to a non-SM oil but leave the filter as is. But, as I mentioned above, I am not an expert on oils. There would be a small amount of retained Mobil 1 in the filter, and this some mixture of the two oils, but I...

    Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10W-40 UPDATE

    Thanks for the input Scotty. I have been somewhat concerned about BRP only recommending 5W-40 as and not 10W-40 also. The wording in the owners manual as to whether this is a recommendation or requirement isn't clear. The paragraph discussing this is titled "Recommended Engine Oil," whereas...

    Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10W-40 UPDATE

    I see that a photo of the Valvoline front label has already been posted; thanks. Attached is a photo of the rear label but it may not be very legible because of small print size - I shot it horizontally in order to get more of a closeup but it's looks as if it will still be mostly too small to...

    Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10W-40 UPDATE

    The Valvoline oil I referred to plainly says full synthetic on the label, and also motorcycle oil. It is not the same as the picture posted by Mr. Orange. I am away from home and not able to take a picture of the bottle at this time, but when I return home I will do so and post it. Why it...

    Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10W-40 UPDATE

    <<To the best of my knowledge and research, Valvoline does not market a full synthetic motorcycle oil..I have been using their dino oil for years, but it does not meet the Spyder specs.>> Scotty, Valvoline does sell a full synthetic motorcycle oil, with specs as I indicated in my post. I am...

    Mobil 1 Racing 4T 10W-40 UPDATE

    FWIW, Valvoline 4T full synthetic 10W-40 motorcycle oil might be a good alternative to the Mobil 1 SM service grade since the Valvoline is Jaso MA2 (also SJ/SG/SF) rated but not SM. On the label it states "Superior Wet Clutch Protection." In this area it's widely available (Walmart, Auto Zone)...

    Spare Key Fiasco ....

    Michael, I did a search for "ZD24RTS" on the Silca website and didn't find anything. Any further advice on getting one of these? Thanks. Mike

    Ranking My RT Mods

    3Ryder, Custom Dynamics (I believe they own the Street Magic line), tells me that the Triple Play is made only for the RS and not the RT. They also said they couldn't say that the Triple Play would not work on an RT but that it is not designed for it. Did you have any problems with it on your...
