• 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.

    Brake Failure warning

    Top off the brake fluid, even if it looks ok. The nanny is very sensitive to low fluid levels.

    How many of us are still riding two wheel motorcyles?

    I'm on my third Spyder since 2008, but can't give up two wheels. Still have my 1997 Valkyrie and a CSC Cyclone.

    Add ons

    It can be done in less, maybe save a half hour, but this may be the mechanics first and only install, so there is a learning curve. The hourly rate in Phoenix is $120, so you're getting a much better deal.

    Add ons

    The install process for the F-3 trunk does take longer than removal as the wiring and amplifier stay on the bike. I'd have the dealer do the install as he also has to hook up to the BUDS, which I will assume you don't have access to. As for the armrests, do them yourself.

    Snowmobile trailer for hauling

    Check the age of your tires. They wear like iron, but fail due to age. Invest in a spare.

    Better drink cup

    Check out Bubba insulated containers at Walmart. Various sizes and they really do work.

    Has anyone given their Spyder a "Name"???

    Boris, from a 1966 song by The Who called Boris the Spider. I still have the original album called A Quick One, although here in the States it was called Happy Jack. Apparently US consumers were easily offended.

    Black Hills, SD

    We're returning from the Spyder Homecoming and are spending tonight in Rapid City after riding through the Badlands, Sturgis, Deadwood and the Nemo Road. This area is spectacular, especially since we did the boring ride through Fargo and Sioux Falls. Tomorrow, it's Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse...

    Spyder Sightings on the road to Valcourt

    On the way to Johnson Creek, we pulled off the highway for gas and ran into Lamont and Joan. Also had a nice gentleman, Larry, catch up to us as we were gassing up near Vail. He was riding an RT-Ltd. You know what Lamont and Joan ride.;)

    Homecoming Ride begins this Friday 5/26/17

    Looking forward to seeing you and Joe. We were supposed to meet up with the LA group this evening in Richfield, but at 10pm they still hadn't arrived, so we'll try to see them in the morning.

    Homecoming Ride begins this Friday 5/26/17

    We have a small group from Phoenix meeting with them on Friday night in Utah, then staying with them through to Valcourt. I don't know how many total ryders we will be meeting with, but have heard that several dozen are expected with more to join up along the way. We're looking forward to a good...

    Missing---Joke Forum, so I'll just start a thread.

    History of the Condom This pearl of knowledge may have escaped you. In 1272, the Arabic Muslims invented the condom, using a goat's lower intestine In 1873, the British refined the idea by taking the intestine out of the goat, first. Don't thank me, I do this as a public service for the...

    New toy hauler?

    I can't comment specifically on the 22rr, but I had a 26rr and the ramp was too inclined to make loading easy. This was especially true when backing up the ramp as that provided more room around the kitchen area. Measure carefully and be prepared to take the trailer off the hitch to lessen the...

    Total hip replacement

    Dave, I had the exact same surgery on 12/2/16 and was riding my Spyder 2 weeks later. I waited the recommended 6 weeks before riding my Valkyrie only beause my Dr asked that I wait. Strangely enough, the arthritis pain in my knees that would begin after just an hour in the saddle, doesn't appear...

    both hips replaced want a spyder

    I wish you all the best. It's not easy, but certainly worth it. :2thumbs:

    both hips replaced want a spyder

    I'm so happy to see the good results people are having with hip replacements, so I thought that I'd add my .02 cents. I had my right hip replaced last Friday, 12/2, with the robotic anterior approach and got on and off my Spyder yesterday and into and out of my truck. I wanted my s/o to know...

    Friction Zone

    There is no adjustment on a hydraulic clutch, but you may want to check the fluid level or replace the fluid entirely due to age or contamination/air infiltration. Hopefully, the problem is not serious enough to require clutch replacement .

    Shorter-reach bars

    Although the top bracket is angled rather than square, I think that the Rox would have enough length for the bracket to get sufficient purchase on the Rox. Maybe an email to Rox along with the photo would elicit a response?

    Shorter-reach bars

    Patti, Check out Rox risers, they have a variety of risers for different bars and extensions. Although none are specifically made for the Spyder, you should be able to find a set that fits. The caveat would be cable length. roxspeedfx.com.

    Planning for Red Rocks and Hill Country

    Unfortunately, no. We found a place about 5 minutes away that was more reasonable.
