• 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.

    Spyder Re-Starting Issues

    Have any of you experienced re-starting issues? My Spyder is fine on her first start. But, after I've ridden and parked, I frequently have re-start problems. I turn the key on, wait for the scrolling message, push the button, the temperature info comes up--and I hit the starter button...

    When was the 1st time you fell in love with machine?

    I'm doing research for a spec article that I am writing for Ride Texas (great regional rider mag-btw). When was the first time you fell in love (lust is ok too--but love takes committment) with a machine? My first machine was my daddy's 1947 Triumph Speed Twin. I think I was about 5 years old...

    Kill Switch Question--and Garage Door Opener Mounting??

    I'm loving my new Spyder--I just went for a short ride to Costco--amazing what I can get in that trunk! I need some sage advice from the raft of Spyder riders. What do y'all think about the proper use of the kill switch? I recently took my motorcycle riding class to get an "M" on my Texas...

    Riding in the wind!

    I just took my new Spyder out for a ride this morning. We picked up the bike in St. Pete, FL and rode it home to Austin,TX. The Texas winds were blowing at about 30 mph. It was not easy holding on. Thanks to a Spyder rider named FloridaJay who we met at Barney's as we were picking up the bike...
