• 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.

    it's been fun

    To everything, turn, turn, turn There is a season, turn, turn, turn And a time for every purpose, under Heaven. Glad you had your season with the Spyder and, for the most part, you were able to turn, turn, turn. Best wishes on whatever your next season brings.

    Tail light removal with Sport Rack

    If you have small hands, you can get the at tail light assembly and replace the bulb without removing the sport rack parts, but it is not easy and requires several magic words (%&*#@) to get done. I know, I know, add Magic Man LEDs and don't worry.

    Givi Windshield

    Sport Tour in Ohio sells them for $126 + shipping. Look under Givi luggage, fitment, Can Am, item D770ST. I'm 5'-10" and am very happy with mine. If you are taller, you may find it's not the right shield.

    Two wheels - not just yet.... at least with this HD bike

    Current issue of Motorcycle Cruiser arrived today and they echo some of the criticisms of the HD 48. Harsh ride, stretched out position, wind blast, small tank. Great look that compromises ride and comfort.

    Ready for the rain?

    I think the HD boot covers are similar to the Tour Master (Competition Accessories, $23) and Choko (Shade Tree, $20). PVC coated nylon that slips over boots and velcros above the calf. Absolutly keeps your boots and feet dry in heavy rain. Packs small and easier to get on than rubber over boots.

    Spyder cover?

    I guess different companies have slightly different covers. The XL I have covers everything. I have Givi side case and Givi shield and the nylon covers everything including the trunk and the fenders.

    My Spyder on a 5x8 trailer

    Wheel chocks would add some forward roll security. Pretty cheap safety feature. I get it now, you actually built beams. Stacking four 2" x 6" on top of each other is another alternative.

    My Spyder on a 5x8 trailer

    Since you admitted to over engineering, did you consider bolting some wheel chocks to the front of the boards to make sure the Spyder does not shift forward under hard braking? If you used three boards on each side, how did you get 6.5" of raise? Three 2" board would be 4.5" and four would be...

    Sears trunks on sale

    See the posted pics. Three 1/4" holes in the sport rack plate are all you need. If you ever want to just use the sport rack plate alone, just fill the holes with some short 1/4" stainless steel screw head bolts and its looks just fine.

    Sears trunks on sale

    The yellow looks close and in any case, would look better than the orange. You should not have to look online since it is available at Walmart, Sears, Home Depot, True Value, ACE, Do IT Best. Wipe the trim strips with paint thinner to degloss them and then hit them with the Fusion. No primer...

    Sears trunks on sale

    Found that the orange grooved trim pieces on the Sears top case are held in place by three small screws. Removed them, wiped them down with mineral spirits and then applied a couple of coats of Krylon Fusion spray paint for plastic. Silver metallic is a close match for the Spyder/Givi silver...
