• 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.

    Seen Everything - Electric HD!

    The Livewire and several other electric motorcycles have made coast to coast trips. Charging every 125 miles is not for me. Battery evolution has a ways to go.

    Who is using a Pedal Commander? What do you think of it?

    I installed a Pedal Box and run in an intermediate mode, low sport or something like that. The reason I like it is you just have less of a throttle twist to obtain the same output and therefore it livens things up, more responsive. Very happy with it. I hide it under my right speaker grill. One...

    Any more feedback on Kenda Kanines?

    I still have decent life on my OEM rear Kenda on my '21 spyder RT at 6500 miles. My dealer will only install OEM tires so I picked up a new rear Kanine last fall when the supply was decreasing. I have Quatrac 5s on the front. The OEM seems to have performed well so far and I think the Kanine is...

    Are the Sway bars on the 2022 still crap?

    I can't see why a shop would say "the upgraded bar might interfere with the performance of the Elkas." I think what the tech was saying was that I wouldn't get the full benefit of the Elkas with an upgraded bar. Got the impression he felt the Elka's would not only improve stability but offer...

    Are the Sway bars on the 2022 still crap?

    I think that may explain why I'm happy with my ride. The Elka shocks in addition to more stability over the inexpensive stock ones also give me a smoother ride on bumpy roads. I have pushed hard into corners with complete stability and have ridden some rough roads in several states. While the...

    Are the Sway bars on the 2022 still crap?

    I also got my Elka shocks at Lamonster on my '21 RT last year. At the time they suggested not going with the sway bar as they said the shocks were the weak point and an upgraded sway bar might actually detract from the benefits of the Elka's. They didn't say anything about changing out the...

    The Ukraine

    We have to open our spigots along with an organized plan of sanctions with our allies. Unlike the past we need to plan for the unlikely and unexpected - a widening war and cyber attacks.

    Helmet on, Earplugs in at the Gas Station

    When I fuel it's usually been almost 2 hours so I take the opportunity for a break anyway and remove helmet, ear plugs, etc., listen to the surroundings or socialize if there's the opportunity. Once when I was taking a brief break at a road junction a guy pulled up in a pickup about 25 feet away...

    2022 Route 66 Ride

    I wouldn't try to predict the June weather in KS and CO too much. I traveled to Flagstaff and back third week of June last year from eastern KS in order to beat the 4th of July holiday traffic. There can be a hot streak, rain, etc. and then back to normal, hard to predict ahead of time more than...

    Time for a new rear kenda

    I picked up a rear Kanine last fall when tire shortages were being discussed. My dealer will only install OEMs. What little info I can find says the Kanine is big improvement over the original. I didn't want to mess with a different size or self install. Have quatracs and Elka shocks on front...

    Spyders passing HDs

    I ride in mostly rural areas on my bicycle when not on the RT and often wave at motorcycle riders and cagers. I think they are surprised and usually wave back. Now some familiar cars in the area wave first and give me plenty of room. Its about showing goodwill to those who've never been on two...

    Stuff for my new RT? Your input is needed.

    If I install a pedal commander (pedal box) prior to getting the 9500 mile service on my '21 RT will that be an issue for the warranty or service or can I just leave it on? Will they say it shouldn't be on there? I have the PB on there now. In spring it will go in for 9500 mi service. I can tuck...

    Besides OEM, what options are there for tires for an RT?

    I agree not much feedback on the Kanine Kr20 but from the mfgr info it looks to be a better tire than the original. I picked up one of the last ones from dealer last fall as he will only install OEMs and there was talk of OEM size tire shortages. I don't have a problem with that and I have...

    2020 RTL BAJA Ron Sway Bar Vs Stock Vs Shocks - your experiences?

    I have a '21 RT and ride single, weigh 170 lbs. I went to Lamonsters last spring with the intention of installing both Elka shocks and Baja Ron sway bar. It was recommended I try the Elka's first and that they would have the most comprehensive affect on my ride and handling. The first time I...

    High Altitude Member Patch

    May at 10,000 in CO can go either way weather wise, actually any month but July, Aug pretty dependable. Saw Vail Pass close for half a day around July 4th due to snow one year. Last year I detoured south of Wolf Creek pass in late June due to snow forecast above 8,000 ft. Snow in summer is...
