• 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.

    Home Safe WE too are home safe, we didn't get to stay the whole weekend, but we did have a great time. Got to meet a few of you, left some cash with just about all the vendors...but got the Spyder looking even better, and in my opinion safer. Thanks to all the spent hours and hours putting this...

    RIDING IN THE RAIN

    Riding in the rain We too got washed and dried several times on the way home from Maggie Valley. It was our first real experience in the rain. We have Frog Togs, full face helmets, and really stayed dry. We took it easy, but I was amazed at how the Spyder handled the water. We have avoided...

    iPod Nano Question

    I am no expert, but I think the issue is the interface. Apple changed the cable from the larger one to one more like the android interface. I think the issue will be plugging it into the port, the cable supplied is the larger of the two.

    Weird sounds...

    I have a couple of questions about my new Spyder, I think from what I have read, I know the probable culprit is the belt/tension. Question is how do I diagnose it for sure and how can I fix it. The first is a harmonic sound from about 45 - 50 mph...very loud, under throttle or not, coasting, it...

    CORBIN VS ULTIMATE SEATS

    Thank you to all that gave me info on this. I went by the Can Am dealer today, they had a comfort seat in stock, I looked at it and measured it. It pushes the driver back exactly 2 inches.

    CORBIN VS ULTIMATE SEATS

    Thinking about trying to get a more comfortable seat. kind of an informal poll, which is the best and why ? I am a big guy 295. The standard seat is ok, but I like the thought of sitting down in the seat a little more. Can anyone give me any pointers on this ? Thanks, Tim
