• 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.

    loisk, I didn't want to hijack your thread....

    Wyliec what has this got to do with hijacking my thread ? What is the connection between a church service and my thread ?? If it's about 'sensitivities' in general, I get it... No drama either way, just mystified...

    First Ride Today - STS SE5

    Spyderwoman- congrats. I had st ltd - suggest you put it in Trailer Mode as mentioned above (accessed thru mode/menu buttons) and leave it there - I found it great, won't let you change up too soon, and changes down at higher revs than non-trailer mode, which made for a better ride. I had...

    F3S passenger comfort

    I have f3s, ride solo. A vendor on here has seat extender for ltd (and t I think) which looks excellent - and top box will be handy. If the extender fits f3s and you add aftermarket rear rack (again,vendors on here) you could add whatever top box or bag you desire. At the least, a...

    Love my short reach bars! 5'4", footboards in position 3, route 129 windshield. Best thing about the F3 range is the easy way we can make it 'just right'

    How good and comfortable are Ultimate Seats ?

    Hi. The RT and ST are very different - especially for pillion. I don't do pillion (we each have our own) so others will chip in, but I suggest you definitely try the RT, and the f3 ltd as well. If you are "mainly" comfy, you can worry about a seat upgrade later. ps the ST didn't come out until...

    Brake Pedal Position Way Too High..Want to lower it.

    Our dealer drilled the same hole on our 15 f3s when we bought it - absolutely no issues, and brake pedal is in a far safer position - well done Polly

    Considering switch from 2 to 3 wheels.

    If you wait a few weeks, brp are unveiling their <$10k usd Spyder - we're all guessing as to what it may be, but it will offer another (cheaper) way into the spyder world.

    OK... it's question and answer time

    I had an 09 I vaguely recall there was a Recall on dps on an early model ... Could be wrong but if right could save you dollars - if it was a formal Safety Recall it is for the life of the vehicle, not just warranty period. If it was just a bulletin no such luck.

    How to start the journey

    You and your wife absolutely must take long test rides on each model - the ergonomics are very different - with each taking a turn at driver/pillion.

    Question

    Guys the correct answer is NOT "do you think I'm crazy" lol Try It would take a while then, remembering all our good times, I would like to find that again - but it would be difficult. Of course, you can ask if she thinks you're crazy enough but don't be surprised at an odd response...

    OR if $ allows - buy a used spyder for you, and your wife can keep her two wheels for a while - until she sees how much fun you're having on a spyder anyway!
