• 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.

    Kicked an M3 in the a** today!

    Atta boy! Show those cagers! And I have the same problem with 23 year old babes wanting to jump on my bike! The trials of owning a spyder!

    kill switch

    More education needed, sorry. What's the point of a kill switch? What emergency scenario can one paint in which it would be best to kill the engine instead of braking and/or swerving? Do you have power steering/ ABS if you hit kill switch?

    Winter riding

    I don't think so. Look closely there's rubber to protect the rim. And the thing looks secure to me. Other forum for motorcycles had a few good reviews of it. But I could be wrong....

    Winter riding

    In a snowstorm i doubt anyone would ticket you on a motorcycle. The vehicle weight is too low to damage the road.

    Winter riding

    I had posted previously that spyder does poorly on snow, fishtails. I just ordered a set of "MV snow claws" which i will try next snowfall. Company is in germany. Google that name and you will find the web site. Anyone tried these? Gonna get them primarily for insurance in case snow falls...

    Russell "Day Long" saddle

    Do you send the original stock seat to russell to get a new seat cover? Does new double seat work with BRP passenger back rest? How long does it take to get after ordering?

    trunk light

    Motorcycling seems to be where cars were 30-40 years ago. Lots of third party add-ons were necessary. The the manufacturers learned to make the $$ themselves and put the car stereo folks outa business. I wonder why motorcycles are sold bare bones? I've put on a bunch of expensive add ons...

    Road obstruction

    Yeah i went out and looked at bike and ground clearance is minimal. Maybe swerving is best idea.

    Road obstruction

    Wow. Do you look down at object and swerve or look straight ahead?

    Road obstruction

    A) i learned today that one has to be careful about objects on the road (road kill, metal objects etc.). Being a cager, I usually straddle loose road objects with my car so that i drive over objects without striking them with my tires. Ah, but with the spyder that causes the center back tire...

    Oil Change Question

    I couldn't get the drain plug off and i reasoned that it didn't matter since the se5 transmission filter and the reservoir drain are almost as low to the ground as the drain plug; ergo, very little oil goes unchanged. That's how i sized it up but Scotty's the man to say for sure.

    helmets

    Thanks to Director and Nancystoy for their input/knowledge. I'm confused at this point. I have a full face harley $200 helmet saw Leno video and bought $560 Arai full face. Maybe Arai better for racing? We need neurosurgeon database with info on real world crashes and MRI info.

    I did a bit more reading; check out Snell certification of helmets.

    helmets

    I wonder what kind of evidence exists to suggest that quality differences don't matter as long as a helmet is DOT approved. The video on Leno's site of a professional racer's accident is very impressive; the Arai helmet took a beating and wasn't even cracked. I know of people in accidents...

    BRP Hand Brake?

    I strongly agree with the following: "there are no stupid questions, just stupid people who ask questions.". So here's a stupid question: does the Lamonster hand break still have anti-lock ability?

    Insurance?

    I got on spyder lover's forum, It seems there's a quorum, Of folks sayin' i'm gettin' screwed. Well my insurance ain't gettin' renewed. Sorry my words lack decorum.
