• 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.

    Spyderfest HOST Hotel = Anyone cancelling?

    I think Candlewood, where we cancelled, also has a parking lot adjoining Lamplighter.

    Spyder Handles (Screen Names)

    Well FRANK, I don't really have any comments. But I am glad I can remember your name.

    Well it was fun while it lasted but i'm moving on!

    It has been a long month since the surgery Bob. If it had been a normal hip replacement, with the new anterior approach, I'd likely be close to riding. But unfortunately, I had some screws and hardware in that hip (from a wreck 35 years ago) that had to come out. So they had to cut me on the...

    Tilting Motorworks is interesting. But like you said, seems primarily focused on Harley's right now. But I am also a Harley fan, so that would be OK. But I am subscribed to their Facebook page and there doesn't seem to be much news from them lately.

    Well it was fun while it lasted but i'm moving on!

    Absolutely correct. I didn't realize Genes Gallery was a dealer until recently. My bad. TricWing was the only one that I was aware of. But it does make sense (now) that there would likely be an R18 at Spyderfest. I do remember the old ATCs Honda made. The 110s had balloon tires and a fixed...

    Ride from last years SF

    Christ of the Ozarks Christ of the Ozarks is likely what you are thinking of. Here is is a link: http://www.eurekasprings.com/attractions/details.html?id=212 And below is a photo at the site with our friends Jeff and Brenda, "adopted orphans" here.

    Well it was fun while it lasted but i'm moving on!

    Correct with regard to it being a kit. But the R18 kit can be out on both the F6B (no reverse) but also fits the GL1800 (does have reverse). TricWing was the only U.S. Based installer that I was aware of, and I am pretty confident they have no intention of being at Spyderfest with the R18...

    Hah! I've seen that one on Facebook lately. But it strikes way to close to home for me right now!!! :thumbup: :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

    Anything can have a fire at any time under the right conditions. You have no knowledge with any specificity of a direct reason to expect a fire. So, Caveat Emptor. If I were in your shoes, I'd remove any added accessories on the Spyder and sell those separately. Then, I'd take the hit on a...

    What's Going On With Columbia Motorsports in CT?

    The trailer hitch is a very easy install. The harness is a bit tricky. Just need to make sure it is secured so it doesn't rub the tire as some have. Id say if the tech isn't "blindly comfortable" in doing a hitch,,,, that I would run away from that dealer quickly. By "blindly comfortable" I...

    Well it was fun while it lasted but i'm moving on!

    To clarify, Honda Goldwing does not have, nor are they releasing, a factory version of the Spyder. At least not in the near future. There are kits for the Goldwing, but I'm not aware of any planning to be at Spyderfest. But, there may be. Which kit dealer did you think would be at Spyderfest?

    Well it was fun while it lasted but i'm moving on!

    Best of luck in your next chapter. You are right, if the frustration level is this high for you, then it is time to move on. There are alternatives out there. None totally without issue,,, but sometimes,,, you just need to change your dance partner. No harm in that, and it worked out well for...

    Oh, I suppose we could allow Joe that much. But the rules committee may veto it. :joke:

    Tricwing Honda

    100% Spot-on correct Ivor. I commend Reggy for taking a thorough approach with this kit. I believe there will eventually be another competitor in the "Y" factor market, whether kit or mass produced. There are some that say this is merely a Spyder copy. I would suggest it isn't any more or less...

    Tricwing Honda

    :agree: And this is precisely why Reggy has so many ardent supporters on this forum. If he feels something isn't quite right, he will make it right or not sell it. Major kudos to them. :bowdown:
