• 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.

    RF interference from USB power ports

    I have added two USB power ports to supply power to two cameras and they are getting power from battery through a FZ-1. The USB's are causing RF interference. It was suggested to me that I put a 25 ohm 5 watt resistor on the positive side. Local Radio Shack is going out of business and does...

    Another DSS FAIL thread

    I added another thread because of what I found out yesterday at the dealership about the DESS FAIL warning I have been getting on the 2014 RT ever since I first locked the bars on the bike two weeks ago. No issues with electrical prior. The bike went in for the 3000 mile check yesterday. The...

    Trailer Options

    I now have two spyders so I need to replace the Aluma that hauled the two motorcycles. What with the cost of trailers these days, I could just add the EasyClamps to an 18 foot car hauler I have and be on my way. I was in town a couple weeks ago and I saw a flat bed trailer with a tarp covering...

    About six miles from Maastricht, in the Netherlands, lie buried 8,301 American soldiers who died in "Operation Market Garden" in the battles to liberate Holland in the fall and winter of 1944. Every one of the men buried in the cemetery, as well as those in the...

    Garmin Virb editing and uploads

    I am in my first attempt, ie. experience gathering, at producing and uploading a video. Virb edit is a simple program but I found it difficult to smooth out the editing. Is there a good editing software that won't break the bank and easy to run by a computer challenged novice? Virb produces...

    F3 Demo rides

    Demo rides were in Chandler Arizona this weekend. I sat on it and the wife rode it. If I was just 5 years younger :roflblack: and had more space, I would have it in my Garage. I think BRP hit it out of the park in the styling department :2thumbs:. The wife likes the bike and she liked the...

    New 2014 RT SE6 with maintenance issues. Could use some advise.

    While installing some aftermarket items onto #879, I noted several maintenance issues. When I took off the skid protector, I noticed 4 screw heads and nuts that had a whitish looking corrosion on them. Almost looked like battery corrosion. Yikes. I hope it is just from the radiators above...

    New 2014 with some new mods

    It didn't take long to start adding to #879. I live on a 1/4 mile gravel road so the first install was the Spyderpops 'missing belt guard'. Nice touch to add the nut clips for the OEM belt protector Spyderpops. I also used some JB epoxy to help hold it on. Arizona is brutal on glue. Next...

    New pearl white 2014 RT SE6 in Arizona

    I drove #879 to its new home on Sunday Oct 12 :yes: and had it on jacks Monday. The items that I had ordered began arriving while waiting for Ridenow of Chandler to decide if they wanted to sell a Spyder. I know you all like pictures so here are a few. The only accessory that I wanted was the...
