• 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.

    How safe?

    Just like aircraft, 90% pilot error. You go out thinking you are Superman, you will soon be smashed flat like Turtleman. Skies are wide open, the roadways are not. How old are your kids ? Could they deal with Daddy being gone ? It's a dangerous business, much like life. You don't mention any two...

    Speedometer inaccuracy

    as far as my experience, most motorcycle speedos are optimistic. Hey, that 2 % ? If that makes or breaks your relationship with your RT, then I don't know what to say. Some folks fiddle with tire sizes (rolling diameter) to affect a change.

    Any difference between 2014 and 2015 RS, engine wise?

    uh..thought there was no 2015, or 2014 RS model.

    RT won't start or even turn over

    when they go, they're gone. They kind of give a couple hints first, like lights brightening as revs increase, or doesn't spin over as smoothly as normal. So if it is a battery, fear not, it will not be traumatic, and a relative cheap and easy fix

    Hot 2015 RT will not start.

    Eco mode - who uses it? And when?

    I guess I use it almost all the time. I don't need the snappiest throttle response. I ignore the stupid "shift light" and go seat of the pants. Above about 4 thousand RPM, I can't tell the difference. Yes yes..I am a geezer.

    2018 RT I want to sit higher(raise seat)?

    Have you ever heard the story of The Princess and the Pea ? Really? ONE HALF INCH ? How about an extra pair of …. never mind. PLease excuse my abruptness, I am not usually stirred this way.

    Buying a spyder long distance

    bought my current RT, from I motorsports. Deal was great, it was brought right to my door in an enclosed trailer, the temp tag was in with the paper work, it had the extras I had requested already installed...correctly I might add. They even included a couple things I wasn't expecting...a set of...

    Does Anyone Tow Their Spyder with a Subaru Outback?

    I use an Aluma 6X10, bifold ramp has natural arch so Spyder won't scrape. Nice and light. Pull with about anything.

    Spyder reliability (long term)

    mine have been better than good. 34k on 2014, and only 9k on my new carryover 2017. It has seemed to me and others, that the high winding 998 twin doesn't even compare to the 1330 triple. With BIG service interval, and superiority in every category. They look kind of the same on the outside, but...

    Frunk Gasket Fell Off

    you can use a little silicone if you want, but it is designed as a friction fit, to keep water out. it does slip off sometimes

    2018/19 RT Limited

    2017 uses switches for air ride, heated grips, and fog lights....still have unused space, big deal.

    My Spyder hauler

    I like that. Personally I have a 6 x 10 Aluma with the bifold ramp, which has a natural arch built in so I added nothing to the ramp and works like a champ

    Another question about water; but

    usually I encounter the tight cap syndrome with a jelly jar. It is on the table, I screw the cap on snug, put jelly in fridge. Next time I take it out it's like the Hulk had put lid on. So here's the deal. The container and lid, expand AND contract a different amount, and at a different speed...
