• 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.

    Has anyone felt like your RT was slipping...

    Peter - You may have uncovered the issue for me. You mentioned a damaged/defective tire... I'm suspicious that is why I'm experiencing the slippery feeling. Over Labor Day weekend I had a valve stem failure - my fault - and my rear tire went flat while riding. I had stopped at a light and as...

    Has anyone felt like your RT was slipping...

    ...skating or on ice while ryding down the road. Every now and then it feels like it is slippery. Like it feels when the rear tire goes flat at a slow speed and you are still moving. It's not severe or constant... just now and then. Does a wind gust lift the front end just enough to cause...

    1330cc Acoustic panel missing

    My 2019 RTL was bought in July as a leftover too. What heat vents are you talking about?

    1330cc Acoustic panel missing

    I called the service tech at the dealer where I bought my Spyder. He couldn't find a specific "acoustic panel" on the 2019 RTL service manual views. He suggested that the exterior body panel covering the right side over the oil filter has foam glued to the inside of it. The acoustic panel I...

    A difficult/complicated job (RTL oil change)

    Is your Spyder up on three ramps? It looks level to me. What is the rear tire sitting on? I need a way to get my 2019 RTL lifted to change oil. I heard that you can't/shouldn't drive just the front wheels up on ramps.

    What do I have to do after battery is disconnected?

    I hooked up the Lamonster USB cable with extension. Turned the bike on and everything was normal - clock, radio, stats, etc. I'm glad - if there were issues I'd be back on here asking for HELP... knowing I would be helped! Thanks.

    What do I have to do after battery is disconnected?

    2019 RTL... going to install some wiring from the battery to a USB power supply. Battery will disconnected from the system for a while. Do I need to reset anything when I reconnect the battery? Or will everything go back to normal once battery power is restored? Jim

    Install 12V power outlet help

    Thanks for the tips. I'm not sharp on the electrical stuff. I get what you are saying. But I still wonder about that dummy outlet in the trunk of my 2019 RTL - on the right side, opposite the dual USB plug on the left. Can I put the 12V plug there?

    Install 12V power outlet help

    I have a portable air compressor that has a 12V male power plug. My 2019 RTL doesn't have a 12V female power plug anywhere that I can find. In the trunk, on the right, it looks like a place to install a plug. Am I right? If so, how do I install one? I have never done this. Does the power...

    Medium priced seat pad for Spyder RT?

    Looking for add on seat pads for the 2019 RTL. Anything less expensive than the Airhawks I found? If they are the best for the money I'm in. Hoping for something serviceable for about 50-60 bucks each since I need to buy two. Jim
