• 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.

    GPS Update still showing old Spyder Dealer location?!

    Thanks Marine. Not that I have any thought of going to the dealer for anything. Too many good shops around here that work on Spyders for a lot less then the dealer.:2thumbs:

    GPS Update still showing old Spyder Dealer location?!

    I have a Garmin Zumo 590 on the Spyder. There was another map upgrade today. After upgrade, I checked the address it was showing for the local Spyder dealer. They moved to a new location at least 5 years ago. 5 years. They are still showing the old address. If I followed the directions...

    Long maintenance time

    Finally got the Spyder back after 3 1/2 weeks in the shop to do 2 1/2 hrs labor to install a $6.00 gasket on the crankcase cover. :yes: Then, on the ride home, I couldn't figure out why I was getting beat up so badly. It finally occurred to me... they had lowered the windshield all the way...

    Trip odometer not working (temporarily)...

    Me too. There are a number of things on Spyder readouts that appear backwards with regard to what they actually do.:dontknow:

    Brake pad replacement

    Interesting since, usually both on cars and cycles, the fronts go first since that is where the weight shift is when braking. Where you riding backwards a lot?:dontknow:

    Spare key storage.

    Maybe dumb question (had a physics teacher who said there are no dumb questions, only, sometimes, dumb answers). What does a chipped key do that an unchipped key not do? Will an unchipped key start the Spyder?:popcorn:

    Brake flashers/strobe

    Put a 3rd tail light at top of trunk lid and flasher two years ago on my 2015 RTL. No problem and my wife says it definitely flashes when I apply the brakes.:thumbup:

    Twitchy

    2015 RTL. 18000 miles. BajaRon sway bar. Almost new automobile tires, 17psi F, 20psi R. Had laser wheel alignment. Even on a smooth road, Spyder feels twitchy. Feels like it is jumping around. On cruise control, take right hand of bars and lightly keep left hand on. Still feels twitchy...

    Tire and mirror shine

    Even now, if you get silicone near any paint application you will get fish eyes because silicone is not just shiny, it is very slippery, hence, fish eyes. The reason car enthusiasts don't use silicone based polishes is that they prefer carnuba wax which is much more difficult to apply and buff...

    Tire and mirror shine

    I've never heard of anything like that, but what do I know. I'm only a Chemical Engineer.:dontknow:

    Tire and mirror shine

    I found out that the primary ingredient is Polydimethylsiloxane which is a silicone based product also used in condom lubricant. Perhaps something that none of us wanted to know.:yikes:
