• 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.

    RPG Sold!

    Hey, folks. Some of you may have seen my Spyder on eBay. I'm happy to say she sold for just under $14k. She went to a Marine whom I invited to join this community. His wife serves in the Navy and she bought one too. Be sure to give him a hard time for buying an Air Force themed bike! :)...

    Sidecar

    Thinking of having a small sidecar built. Anyone looked into this? How would the VSS react? It seems to handle the trailer okay but I wonder about the lateral pull.

    Something Old, Something New

    I just purchased a 1970 BMW R60 Cafe Racer and rode her back home 350 miles. After hopping back on my Spyder, I gained a new appreciation for how lucky we are that automotive technology has advanced in 40 years. For example: Starting the Bike We like to complain about the inconvenience of...

    Karma

    I'm at a bike event riding with a friend on an HD. Ten or so sportbikes are lined up just across the street while their riders are standing near them. They all turn to see the racket when I fire up the Tailgunner. I figure I'll give them a show so I throw it into reverse and hammer on the...

    Tumbler

    Got stuck the other day when neither of my keys would fit into the ignition. After 20 minutes in the ridiculously hit sun, I used a screwdriver handle to tap it in and move the tumblers. WD-40 didn't help. Brute force ftw.

    Braking issue

    With the trailer in tow, anytime I brake abrubtly, the Spyder goes into limp mode and says to ABS Check DPS. If I power off for 60 seconds or so, all is well. Suggestions other than "don't stop abruptly"? :)
