• 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.

    201.5 miles on a tank

    The last bar on the fuel gauge disappeared. "Feed Me" light had been on for thirty miles. I could only get 5.4 gallons in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    10,000 feet

    Took the Spyder up to Ski Apache today. It was a LOT cooler at 10,000 feet than home. Bike said it was 107 when I got home. Good news is the gas didn't boil. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Interesting Ride

    Had an interesting ride yesterday. I was up in the mountains and decided to take the road from Ruidoso to Cloudcroft NM. This is about a 30 mile twisty road with great scenery. After a few miles I reached a point where the road was being worked on. Brand new chip seal. The bike was sliding...

    Embroidery

    One thing leads to another. Another member posted some Spyder patterns. So I thought I'd give it a try. Came out pretty good. I could embroider something for you. The RT would cost about 20 bucks on your material. If I supply the shirt it will be more. I would want to make sure Lamont gets...

    Something else to worry about

    I was cleaning my bike today when I noticed a loose screw. Looked a little closer and found the second loose screw. One was completely out the other almost out. The two screws holding the plastic cover on the right side of the trailing arm. You might want to check yours. Sent from my iPhone...

    Cruise Control Switch on E Bay

    Fuel Gauge Question

    My fuel gauge has started indicating two to three bars low when it is full. I put 35 miles on a full tank and it indicated half tank. Anyone else with this problem? Anyone know the fix? Nearest dealer is 180 miles one way and I would rather not take it in for them just to look at it and order...

    HowTo: Change Rear Tire

    I got 9,000 miles out of my Kenda. Needless to say I haven't been doing burnouts. It was time to change. Someone asked for a write up on an ST. I thought I took more pictures but this is it. Remove the two covers over the axle bolts and crack the 36mm nut loose while the bike is still on...

    Fixing the Windshield That Won't Stay Up

    My windshield would not stay up. This gets annoying in the cold weather. So I decided to see if it could be fixed. I got enough of the tupperware removed to see small indents in the side of the support. I guessed that there was a spring loaded ball that is supposed to keep the windshield...

    Slingshot Sighting

    Got passed by a Slingshot in Artesia NM this evening. My first thought was, "Do you really want to die?" Hope he had the recall performed.

    Today's Ride

    Beautiful day today so I went for a ride. 65 degrees, sun shining. Got about 25 miles out of town and saw a Bald Eagle. Got turned around to take a pic but the eagle had moved about a mile off the road. I Phones aren't real good for pics from a mile. The new to me Baja Ron Sway Bar did a...

    Another Baja Ron Thread

    OK so now I am a believer. I couldn't believe all the hype about the Baja Ron sway bar. Another forum member had a slightly used bar for sale so I bought it. Thanks Hubie! Installed it today. The factory bar is WAY too small. I'm guessing two hours for the install. But I took the time to...

    12volt accessory location

    Needed to install a 12 Accessory (Cig lighter) for a heated vest. Took quite awhile but I finally found the factory wiring for the frunk. If you remove the left side panel by the engine and them the left side panel on the side of the frunk, you can access the wires. I did not want the power...
