• 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.

    Anybody have one of these? Spyder RT Adjustable Luggage Rack (Chrome or Black)

    Here's a short thread that I started about the Rivco rack last fall: http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?108949-Cargo-stability-problem-solved! Includes photos of it on my RT-S. I love it!

    This is just an off handed comment on the off topic board.

    Looks like the Pit Bull thread got pulled. I don't understand the intolerance. No one got nasty, no one used horrible language, no one personally attacked anyone, no one brought politics into it. I considered it educational as well as a civil discussion by two opposing sides explaining their...

    How About A Quick Prayer?

    Hi Jerry. Yes, I remember Bush flipping on abortion and other things. I too instantly lose respect for all politicians who play games with their public persona. If I can't trust what someone truly believes, I can't trust anything else about him/her. Yay NARAL! Good organization.

    This is just an off handed comment on the off topic board.

    I didn't visit the Off Topic forum for a long time after first registering here, but now I tune in when I've got time. I'm glad it exists. I refuse to join FaceBook or Twitter, etc, so you guys and gals are it for me. Yup, that's right. It's up to you and you alone to entertain me! I feel...

    How About A Quick Prayer?

    I've always liked her, especially for her gutsy stands against her husband, like on abortion (she's pro-choice, as every female should be). And also for her decision to let Nature take its course at this point. She's an admirable lady and I send her my best vibes.

    My cats love Amazon and Revzilla

    Years ago, my Saddlebred foal loved huge cardboard boxes. I'd get appliance boxes from stores and toss them in with him. They were as big as he was, but he'd somehow throw them in the air and attack them upon landing or just push them around his little pasture until they were in shreds. One...

    Side case hinges.

    Thanks for your post. I shouldn't have said "hinges" as I did read your explanation on your product page and understood that it's the (pictured) brackets. But somewhere I thought there was a brief comment about the kit influencing the overall ability of the trunk to carry weight.

    Hey Holly!

    S/he should be our next president ... a compilation of the (current) best of both parties, the divisive-healing hybrid.

    Love the semi automatic transmission

    There ya go, another undeserved maligning of an innocent species! :D:D Pigs don't love to live in poop, fresh or stale, any more than we do! On behalf of misunderstood porcines everywhere, I (we) demand a retraction! But I too love, love, LOVE my SE6! I'd have bought a manual, but the only...

    Side case hinges.

    Probably a dumb question, but exactly what is the determinant that limits the luggage weight in the side trunks to 15#? Do the hinges contribute, and if so, if I replaced them with your hinges, Steve, could I carry 25# harmlessly? I regularly want to put one 25# bag of kitty litter in each...

    A good Spyder article

    Great article, except I too didn't like that he kept saying it's not a motorcycle. It's not a BIKE, but it's certainly a motorized cycle. He clearly meant by his follow up statements that it simply doesn't handle like a bike. It sounds nit-picky, but in a similar vein, here in MI the...

    Autocycle???

    I agree that someone screwed up on your license plate. Around here, people frequently confuse Spyders with Sling Shots. By that I mean, when discussing what I ride when they haven't seen it, they knowingly smile, pleased that they're talking my vernacular, then chat about Sling Shots until I...

    Yes

    I did my first 2018 ryde today!! It was too windy for my liking, but who could resist 70 degrees and mostly sunshine after the crazy Spring we've had. Tomorrow's supposed to be in the 60s, but raining, and then rainy 40s and 50s again, so this might be it for awhile. Our gravel roads haven't...

    English is hard

    What I love most about that very clever presentation is that the guy was 102 years old when he filmed it! He sure doesn't sound or look it!

    Another gun thread

    The concept of limiting to ten rounds is laughable. I prefer the tube magazines on my two rifles (which would be banned by this insane law), but my pistol and my husband's rifle use ten-round magazines and came with extra magazines, more of which can be purchased at any time. So...

    Just bought a 2015 RTL and need help

    Kickstands are the most commonly stolen parts off of Spyders, so the majority of Spyders no longer have them. They're considered valuable mementos, especially among jealous onlookers, and it's suspected that most of the thieves are HD owners. Welcome Spyder newbie!

    Clock on Dash

    Is it ok to skip through gears when downshifting?

    I'm going to stick my nose where it doesn't belong because I hate to see this misunderstanding come between two good guys. Bob, I think Easy Rider doesn't know that you were referring to the semi automatic transmission, or the SE6 (your "essies"). So when he asked what he couldn't do, I think...
