• 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.

    Sport Rack Warrenty Issue

    The lid for my sport rack was delivered with the peg hole broken. I just set it aside and leave the backrest on all of the time.

    Cold day- Spyder didn't like it

    A few days ago, I decided to take the spyder out in 20F. Everything worked fine except that the throttle wouldn't return to neutral on it's own. It had been left out in the rain a couple of days earlier, so I'm wondering if moisture somehow froze and caused the sticking :dontknow:.

    Manual (SM) or Elecitric Semi-Auto (SE) shifting?

    Definitely the SE5. The clutch might be fun for some, but with the SE5 you still get the thrill of changing gears with less hassle.

    USER NAMES/HANDLES - What does yours mean? Where did it come from?

    Have been partying in the Talladega infield both races since the mid 80s. Hence, 'Degaman'.

    Let me just say I'm not happy either

    Lamont: No doubt your site has the most traffic of them all. This could be attributable to the wealth of knowledge provided by your subscribers, both positive and negative. Of course, most posts will be of the negative kind because problems require solutions, whereas satisfied customers are...

    BRP called to get feedback on Spyder

    Wow... kinda sounds like the Obama administration going after Fox News for not remaining in lock-step. Why can't we just agree to disagree? Since when does somebody have to be a owner to express an opinion?

    DPS Problems, We Can No Longer Ignore "The Elephant In The Living Room"

    Both times it happened it to me, it was the 'binding' kind. Once after coming out of a hard turn at 50 mph it kinked at mid-steer, and the other time while passing a semi on the interstate at 80 mph, again at mid-steer. Both times, after the initial 'kink', I was able to maintain control with...

    DPS Problems, We Can No Longer Ignore "The Elephant In The Living Room"

    As one that has experienced the steering anomaly, it seems like a hardware problem (kinking at mid steer), and not something that can be corrected through a software update. That being said, since the 'fix' to the 'fix', my machine is running better than it ever has. I will cross my fingers...

    Germany anyone?

    Spent 6 years there, 3 in Fulda, and 3 in Wurzburg. Great country. Lots of beer and wine festivals. Be careful on the wet cobblestones.

    A BIG THANKS TO LAMONT

    Kudos to Lamont! The barbecue event was loads of fun, including the guy who decided to go wading in the covered pool, and my backwards somersault in the defective lawn chair by the pool. Here are a few pics that I took today... http://s277.photobucket.com/albums/kk44/Degaman88/Lamonts%20Barbecue/

    Software Update Poll- Please vote

    Haven't checked in on this website for quite some time now. Have been waiting until my 6000 mile service before I have the software update performed. Just called to make an appointment and was told I should wait until they received the wire for the shifting fix later this week. It seems that...

    Steering Recall Update

    I have had this happen to me twice now. First time after exiting a turn at about 40 mph. Then again a few days ago after passing a truck on the interstate at 80 mph. Both times while going straight and attempting a slight right turn of the steering, it felt kinked and I had to force it to...

    What is your favorite involment with the Police

    I got pulled over on the spyder returning from my brother's house. It was night time, and the officer asked me if my headlights were on while I was riding. I explained that the machine would only operate with the lights on, and he admitted that they were indeed functioning. I think he only...
