• 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.

    Is there a Key Blank available for 2014+ Spyders?

    It is a Triumph motorcycle key. I have one for each of my Spyders, one is on my keyring that is always in my pocket depending on season/location. If I lose my "running" key, the third key gives me access to the 2nd back up key.

    Has anyone given their Spyder a "Name"???

    When we bought the Champagne one in fall on 2020 we named it 'The Hook' because when you parked it people came up to you and wanted to talk to you about it. I had lost my wife of 40 years in the summer of 2021. She had gotten to ride with me until ALS made her to weak to be on the Spyder...

    Damaged a Rim on my F3L when we hit about a 4" rock that slid off of a rock wall by the road - afraid to ask what a new rim will cost!?!

    You can get two PPA wheels for the cost of one OEM wheel. https://ppawheels.com/products/orb-15 Put two new Vredestein tires on it at the same time. I would not trust that tire. I have their chrome ORB wheels on both my Spyders.
