• 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.

    Gripes about vendors

    These descriptions were created when there was only 1 model of Spyder in the world. I will get my site updated, but I can only do so much about all the descriptions that have propagated throughout the dealer network. So especially if its an older Spyder product, and it does not specify RS or...

    Did I somehow install my Kewlmetal RT highway brackets wrong?

    Sopher, My shift peg is 3.5" above the highway bracket, just to give you a reference point. You probably have to adjust your shifter up a little from the Factory setting. Make sure it clears when shifting into reverse, and that it upshifts fully (if you raise it up too much you won't get the...

    Kewlmetal Highway Brackets on a 2011 RS

    Spyderlovers, We are finding out that there have been some changes to the 2011 models that effect the installation of the Kewlmetal highway brackets. For the time being, the Kewlmetal RS highway brackets, Item KD-248, DOES NOT fit the 2011 models of the RS. If you have ordered these already...

    Vintage Spyder for sale....

    This is a replica of a 1905 Indian Tri-Car. It went up on the auction block at the Las Vegas Vintage bike auction this past weekend and it did not sell. I was told the creator also has an original and wants $150k for it. Only 30k and this one is yours! Matt

    Off to the Chromium Shop !!!

    I have been getting a few PM's asking about price. Once I get these back, next year I am sure, we will be able to set prices for an exchange program. I will do the rear wheel as a separate batch both for mine and for the exchange as well. Matt

    Two production touring trikes...

    Yup. It's just a matter of time before some front end kits come out. I have actually done a few CAD models for a bolt on Kit that works on some of the metric bikes. It's just one more project that we are thinking of here at Kewlmetal. Here just a concept level model I did when I was toying...

    Two production touring trikes...

    Most folks know that Lehman and Victory have teamed up to produce the Crossbow, but if you have not seen it, it is a Victory Vision with a Lehman rear end. Like all the trikes before it, for some reason, the trike builders don't do anything to the steering geometry and the trikes handle very...

    Handle Bar Removal Help

    Frank3, I have had my handle bars off my RT. I chromed them and I also put a spacer under them to raise them up and back a little. I did a video, see link below. It's a BIG job. I hope this helps! RT Handle Bars Matt

    Former/ Current Pilots?

    Sold my plane years ago. I sure do miss it. The best part was the freedom to just go wherever, whenever. I lived in LA when I had it and it was so nice getting in and out with no traffic. I was instrument current for years and that takes a lot of work, but it is very rewarding when you come...

    Stealth, the movie

    Here is another funny link: Area 51 Black Aircraft I always find these funny. I found a UFO website once with a bunch of pictures of airplanes I have designed. They got them all from the USPTO website. Apparently I have been colaborating with aliens, according to the website. Mad Matt

    Stealth, the movie

    The Airplane in the Movie Stealth was based on a design by Mad Matt: The Hollywood artists spiffed it up quite a bit. I remember I only had 1 day to do the drawings of this plane for the patent so it did not have very much detail. The objective of the design was just to create something in...

    Elka/ Kewlmetal

    Thanks John! As John said, we have the RT front 1 ways with the 300# springs in stock and ready to ship. That will save you about a 2 week wait. This is one of the best upgrades you can do to increase your ride enjoyment, calms down the body roll and lets you relax more on your RT. Matt...

    My Wife's RT is Fantastic!

    JohnE, I am sorry to hear of your troubles. I am mainly thinking of the design and manufacturing teams, because that is where I have spent my professional career. There certainly should be a way for someone in your shoes to get expedited help directly from Can-Am. They need to do better in...
