• 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.

    My AirConditioner system failed on my Spyder RTS today...

    I was out Sunday and the Spyder displayed 93F to 104F. Not too bad while I was moving. Of course the humidity was about 10%. This is the desert after all. I was testing out my install of the air management system from Spyderpops. It helps a lot but hot is still hot. I was happy to see that...

    putting the stock exhaust back on

    I went back to the stock exhaust several months ago from the Hindle. The Hindle is loud and I was getting tired of it and my social conscience was getting to me. I have no regrets. The loss of power is minimal and I would almost never want to tap into it. The Hindle is much better looking...

    Battery Question

    I have left my all my cycles sit idle for as much as 3 months with no problems. I did destroy 1 battery by putting a trickle charger on it and forgetting it for um, 4 months, and it was totally dry. Oops!! Then I learned the winter time trick of putting a trickle charger on the battery and...

    Spyderlovers recommended Service Centers

    What about southern Utah I just moved to St George UT, far SW Utah. I see no dealers outside the SLC area. Looks like Las Vegas is my closest option. Any one here have any experience with a dealer in L-V. I expect to start doing more of my own work. I did that with my previous cycles so...

    SE5 shifting question.

    It sounds to me like your clutch isn't reengaging properly. Mine is virtually instant shifting up and down at any rpm's. I suppose that could be mechanical or electrical. An interesting challenge for a dealer.

    docdoru ...SFB floor boards

    I have them and I like them alot. My riding shoes don't have very deep treads on the soles and they do move on the floorboards from the vibration of the engine. I'm thinking I'll get some of that gripper tape they put on stairs, etc. to fix the problem. Every place I find that tape it's in a...

    Trailer

    My Aluma aluminum single axle trailer with 13 in wheels has never had swaying issues. With the proper weight distribution you can cruise at any reasonable speed. With my RS on the trailer I've been up to 80mph a few times with no problems at all. My whole rig weighs about 1100# and tows...

    Where is the Plexus ???

    One dealer I talked to stopped carrying Plexus because the price took a giant leap higher. They figured most people would not buy it anymore. The Honda cleaner gets great feedback and Lemon Pledge does too. I'm going to experiment with a few of those.

    Thinking of buying a trailer to haul the spyder on family trips…

    Look at the Aluma I haul my Spyder on a trailer from Aluma. It's the model 638, 63 inches wide and 8 feet long. It loads quite easily if you can get the wheels in a dip like the curb on your driveway. Very light and tows like a dream. I like the open trailer so I can watch it in my mirror...

    Calling all BRP comfort seat GS/RS riders

    I have the comfort seat and I do slide forward on it too. My handlebars are stock. I added the SBF Racing floor boards and that helped a lot. The stock pegs probably were causing some forward force from the angles of my legs. I was going to go for the Russel DayLong saddle but I'm not in...

    emergency brake handle

    I did a similar thing and it works great. I covered the allthread with vinyl tubing and painted it all black. My heel does rub the paint off the tubing so it'll soon be time to touch it all up again. You know what they say 'Great minds think alike!' :2thumbs:

    New Ride

    I switched to 3 wheels by getting a Goldwing in 2001. A GL1500SE with a CSC trike conversion. It was very posh and I had a lot of fun on it until I sold it in 2009. I saw the Spyder and had to have one while I could still enjoy it. I have an 09 SE5 and am having a blast with it. I don't...

    Spyder RS SE5 Driver Floorboard Recommendation

    I have the sbfracing ones and they're pretty good. I often rest my heel on the orig footpeg and my toes on the floorboards. If you have big feet you might have a space problem for your toes. Check them out. They're pretty well made.

    Front tire wear

    Both Both tires wearing on the inner half. I might get 8000 miles out of them. I'm going to try to find an alignment shop that can check the front end and then buy car tires.

    In desperate need of a computer expert help, please.

    The fact that you can boot in safe mode suggests that the HD is OK. You may have been hit by some malware. Can you backup to a restore point in safe mode? I've never tried it myself but I thing that's what I would try next. You might have a restore point that is only a few days old that...

    Tire Wear Issue - Possible Alignment problem

    Both of my front tires show a lot of extra wear on the inside halves. The dealer says they are in spec for me too. I don't feel that it tracks real well when running down the road either so I'm doubtful about swapping the front tires at $26 a piece. I'm thinking about going to an alignment...

    SPYDER RT TRAILERING

    Look at Aluma I haul my RS on an Aluma open trailer. I like seeing it in the mirror. You might have to wash it when you arrive but that's not a big deal. This trailer is very low profile and light weight. Also cheaper than and enclosed one. Consider the trade-offs. :dontknow:

    Floorborad question...

    Your answer is in your posting. You typed .com and the link shows .net. Very different to a computer. You have to call them to order the floorboards and I never did get connected with them. I found a used pair for sale and bought them. They improve the leg position quite a bit but you can...
