• 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.

    Reputable Dealers in Illinois and Missouri

    Hey BigLou......I work in Springfield, soon as the weather warms up keep an eye out for my silver spyder & say hello. I'm hoping for good weather & a far more fun ride to/from work soon.

    Reputable Dealers in Illinois and Missouri

    i've been to the Decatur shop. Seemed like a good place, very busy the times I was there. Although I did end up buying my spyder out of state, I haven't heard anything negative about them & intend to use them for all service. One of my brothers is checking into a dealer in Nashville, IL as well...

    Helmet w/half visor

    HJC makes one, that I think may work for you. Dealer included it when I bought my spyder last October. I haven't used it yet, since it was colder out so I rode in my full face. Can't wait for spring & a chance to use it. http://www.hjchelmets.com/ I think they may have a few other styles...

    Finally did it right!

    Evenin.....nice ride report! I'd hoped to get mine out today but we had some freezing fog so thought i'd leave the ice on it's own. I wanted to ask about the book you mentioned. Anybody know where I can order it online? Planning / dreaming about rides is helping me get through the winter &...

    Are you running a Stock or Custom Spyder?

    cool.....the hindle may not last long once Spring arrives, I only got to ride for a month after I bought the spyder before it got to cold to ride (for me anyway)

    Survey Question/Riding Habits

    pretty much always just me. Although biggest brother & I do manage to ride together once in awhile. Now that I have the spyder if I want company all I have to do is stop somewhere & i'm surrounded ;)

    Are you running a Stock or Custom Spyder?

    i've got a Hindle exhaust. Not by choice it was already on there when I bought the spyder. So far it doesn't annoy me enough to find a stock one for it though.

    Visor fog

    I'm not sure about your gps. But I use a product called "cat crap" to handle fog on my visors. I've never used it on prescription glasses though. I'm sure there are other products as well. j.

    Route 66 trip in May 2010

    You're going to miss my section of Rt 66. Still sounds like a great trip. If you pass close to St Louis don't miss Ted Drewes http://www.teddrewes.com/Drewes.asp

    What Was Your First Motorcycle?

    Let's see, 3 1/2 years ago I learned to ride on a Honda Rebel (thanks MSF!). The first bike I bought was a used 2002 Suzuki Savage 650, then I bought a 2007 Qlink Sapero (250) & 18 months after that I bought a 2008 Spyder. That was two months ago, in the month I got to ride before it got cold...

    I need your thoughts on the trunk liner.

    i'll be honest I don't know how much the liners are. Whoever had my spyder first bought it along with that annoying hindle exhaust (personal opinion of course). But I really like the liner, I had it out for a bit & didn't like how things bounced around in the trunk. And although I could organize...

    Great weather, great Spyder...

    perfect here as well. Took the liner out of my jacket & rode like it was summer. I got a late start though & rode 60-70 miles. Not far for most people but my longest ride since I bought the bike almost a month ago. I think this winter is going to be much harder to wait through than the when I...

    It's official - got my Spyder today!

    you know it's actually pretty cool to ride an m/c that I occasionally see other people on. Not that spyders are all that common here but I have seen a couple. Not so with my previous two bikes, never saw another like them. Looks like it's going to be a nice day in central Il tomorrow...

    It's official - got my Spyder today!

    Thank you! With all the rain we've had since I bought the spyder I haven't ridden as much as i'd like. But Sunday is looking promising. I usually ride till around Thanksgiving, so I haven't given up yet. Be safe!

    New Owner

    congratultions....the spyder seems to have a strange affect on people. I've had mine about 2 weeks & now have a sister that never wanted to be near motorcycles asking if she can try it in a parking lot or even just ride back seat. Enjoy!!
