• 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.

    I have a 2014 RT. The original air compressor was replaced under warranty 3 yrs ago... now the new one (from 3 yrs ago) is making lots of noise and runs often. I know how to replace it...I tried an after market one from Viair... but that didn't work out at all. The lowest price I have found...

    Anybody know what the consistent hum coming from engine is?

    I'm hearing a consistent hum from the engine (2014 RT). Everything seems to be running fine... engine performance is normal... but this hum is not normal. It does it while moving or in idle. It's pitched similar to the G note on a keyboard and doesn't vary up or down (pitch) with RPM's. Any...

    Compressor

    Just wondering, have others had compressor problems (2014 RTL SE6). Had to put mine in the shop (under warranty thankfully) and have the compressor replaced at 23,000 miles. Man, when the compressor goes out, you'd think the whole underneath is ripping apart. It sounds terrible! Any way, just...

    Front tires for my 2014 RT Limited

    I've gotten almost 21,000 miles on my original front tires. They are absolutely ready to be changed! Has anyone used a Goodyear dealership to replace your front tires? If so, what tire did you use? Second question: is the lazer alignment just for the rear tire (nothing to do with the front)...

    Headlight out on my 2014 RT ...How hard is it to DIY change?

    I noticed today that the left headlight on my 2014 Spyder RT is out (bike is still under warranty) but they say warranty doesn't cover light. I flashed between high and low beam but neither high or low works on that light. That made me think perhaps it's not the bulb but something...

    My 2014 Spyder RT Limited's speedometer is off (compared to the speed on the GPS) 2 mph . The thermometer is always off by 7 degrees and the clock runs so fast, I have to reset it about every 2 weeks. Is this just mine or are there others of you having the same issue? And does anyone know of a...

    Treadwear on rear tire of 2014 RT ...what's expected life?

    What kind of millage should I get on the rear tire of my 2014 RT? It has almost no tread left in the center of the tire. At 6000 mi I noticed it was significantly worn ...and now at 7000 mi it's practically bare. I have kept check on the air pressure and it has been at 28 lbs constant (per...

    AM radio antenna

    Just wondering if anybody else has had this problem: I'm riding along on my 2014 RT Limited, listening to a local AM radio station (very close ...not a distant station), when I begin to get a lot of interference. To make a long story short: I eventually realized the problem is my antenna. As...

    Drive belt vibration above 65 mph on 2014 RT

    My 2014 Spyder RT Limited only has 4000 miles. It runs flawlessly until I get on the Interstate above 65 mph and there is an intermittent vibration. I was shocked the first time it happened. I read on Spyderlovers forum and figured out that it has to do with the drivebelt vibration and talked...
