• 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.

    I like this ,right on my brother, Vets will overcome.

    Let's take a different tack I agree, let's throw the bums out. But, if/when we do, we won't be any better off than we are today. We are where we are because of gerrymandered congressional districts and when we TTBO, we'll just elect a new set of bums who will need to be thrown out next time...

    New ST Limited Stalling

    Here's one more data point. 2013 RT SE5 which just turned over 300 miles this morning. I use premium fuel exclusively and always fill up at our local Costco. The bike has stalled 5 times now. 4 times when starting out cold and still in first gear. Today it stalled in Reverse with a fully warm...

    Reasons to Like the 2013 RT

    What's not to like? Deer in the headlights newbie here with less than 300 miles on our new '13 RT SE5 so I haven't had to endure any of the problems others have reported. Long-time motorcycle rider but I've ridden several "killer" off-road 3-wheelers without incident. I've been the proud owner...

    The Five Wheel Gang is Planning a Ride - Test run, Oct 5th; Main ride, Spring 2014

    I'm a wimp I love that you are planning this ride. I'm a new Spyder owner but long-term motorcycle rider. I commuted year-round on 2 wheels in the Puget Sound area for the better part of 15 years. Now that I'm retired, going out on a cold, possibly rainy day, just doesn't hold the same...

    2014 RT

    Color's just a marketing thing. What bursts your bubble? Features or colors? Your favorite Spyder dealer can sell you any flavor of Spyder in the color of your choice simply by swapping panels. This isn't rocket science. I was fortunate that my second choice of color was offered for my base...

    OEM vented windscreen helping MPG?

    Forgive me. Being a newbie here, I may have some credibility concerns to deal with. Here are my bona fides: I'm 70. Been riding since I was 16. First bike was an Indian because I grew up in Springfield, MA, the home of Indian at the time. I've owned at least 1 model of every major manufacturer...
