• 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.

    Riding on Code Red Heat Days

    I choose not to ride on these super hot days. Dehydration is a real possibility and that results in decreased brain function. I don't have much of a margin in that area to begin with, so I play it safe and drive the car if I must get out on a miserable day. :D Madonna

    How to bypass Washington D.C.

    I went to google maps and typed in Ohio to Ocean City, MD. All routes they showed had you staying north of DC. There is no need for you to go as far south as DC, so any route that google shows you ought to work. A very long day (over 10 hrs) or a reasonable trip if broken into 2 days. Hope...

    I've lost my Spyder!

    I was pleasantly surprised to meet "Mrs DR Buck" in the class yesterday. Saw that familiar license plate and ran right over. She is quite a lady, sir! :thumbup: Madonna

    Ultimate Seat

    My Ultimate Seat was delivered yesterday late, so my son helped me install it today. The black fuel door has a satin finish - kinda textured. The bolts and lock are silver in color. I'm very happy with the look of the black fuel door. Not very noticable except for those bolts. Highly...

    Canandaigua Lake - Riding Suggestions

    We will be vacationing in Canandaigua, NY in July. I'm a little on the fence about taking my Spyder with me. Are there folks here who could provide me with some riding routes? Perhaps you can help change my mind. Thanks in advance for any info you are willing to share. Madonna

    Ultimate Seat

    2manycars, the standard Ultimate Seat without embelishments, runs around $700. The rain cover is highly recommended by the manufacturer, but is not mandatory. I thought it wise to purchase the rain cover for those "just in case" times when the weather looks iffy. I figured that if I am...

    Lamont Ram Ball Attachment to Dash

    Is there anything behind the dash that water could get to once the hole is drilled? Would it make sense to put a bead of silicon sealant around the base of the RAM ball before installing? Thanks guys! Madonna

    Ultimate Seat

    muonwhiz, from reading their website, the act of sewing the material creates holes that would allow water to get to the foam inside. Erring on the side of caution, they say that none of their seats is water proof and advocate that folks buy the rain cover to use in inclement weather (riding and...
