• 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.

    No brake lights (not the fuse)?

    Brake lights were working until I plugged in the trailer, now they don't. :gaah: Running lights, hazards, and turn signals work all work on the trailer and on the bike when connected and not connected. I am using the RT harness (square plug) and the trailer has all LED bulbs. Before I go...

    New (2013) Solace Camper owner, any advice?

    Since 2014 we've been traveling with our trusty modded Tag-Along trailer, but there have been limitations because we didn't have the complete freedom we wanted and relied a lot on hotels, cabins, and cottages for overnight stays. This changes today with the purchase of a 2013 Solace camping...

    Any Ohio riders attending Easyriders this year?

    I was just curious if anyone else was maybe going to the Easyriders Rodeo 8/30-9/3 in Chillicothe? There are 4 of us going and camping Saturday & Sunday and I am the only Spyder rider in the group. Maybe I will see some more that weekend?

    Standard maintenance question.

    This week I am changing the brake pads on my 2014 RT for the first time (not bad for 15k miles of 2 up riding with a trailer). Is there anything I should be checking on the RT while I have it up on jacks? Dealer put some lube on the belt during the last check awhile ago. Thanks...

    3D modeling for Spyder stuff (Part 2)

    My original post. I had some ideas after I posted the original design for the base cap (right and left of dash cluster). This is my first installation of a 3D printed design and it works really well. I needed a mount for my rear view camera monitor. The mount that came with the monitor was...

    3D modeling for Spyder stuff

    Sharing some fun I am having while waiting for the rain to stop. I'm using my 3D printer now to make some accessory mods for my 2014 Spyder RT. This was created in Fusion 360. This is final draft for the base cap (right and left of dash cluster). The printed version is very sturdy and the...

    I am digging the new 2018 displays but I own a 2014 and have noticed some water spots on the inside of the plexi for my gauges and this has me concerned with how long these seals will protect expensive electronics like this.
