• 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.

    Haulbikes/Daily Direct LLC Venting

    I'm sure most of you are aware of this shipping company and some of you have probably used them. I recently had the experience of dealing with the company's incompetent and rude staff trying to get the F3S from rockman in Bryan, TX to me in Lancaster, PA. I signed the contract on August 18...

    Dilemma

    My 09 RS is for sale and an 89 year old gentleman stopped today and wants to purchase my Spyder. Right now he's on a Burgman scooter with a trike kit. My gut is telling me that this gentleman is not going to be able to handle this Spyder. He has test driven an F3, but the riding style is so...

    Shortie advice

    So...I'm seriously looking now for an F3. I went to a dealer today and asked some questions. I learned that, because I'm short, I will need my pegs in the #2 position (~$50) and I will also need to spend $450 to switch the handlebars in order to get me to the A position. Seriously? I'm...

    Shark Attack

    https://www.facebook.com/debbi.f.dunn/posts/10208917224921470 Thought I would share a little of what happened yesterday on our fishing trip in the lower Everglades. We are in the Keys on vacation and this was the second shark that morning, in that spot. I hope the link works.

    Need to make changes

    I believe I know the temporary fix for my F3 disease. I need to get my RS into a more upright riding position for longer rides. I'm good for short jaunts in the forward leaning position but after an hour or so, it gets rough on my neck and shoulders. I'm thinking highway pegs and 4" risers...

    A Future Spyder Ryder

    My daughter and grandson were up from SC to celebrate Christmas. We haven't had one together in 7 years. When I was visiting them in October, I showed my grandson what his "grandma" rides now. He was so excited. The temps were a little chilly over the weekend, but I took him for a ride and...

    Cold Weather/Cold Hands

    I've searched the forums for ideas for heated grips and I found a few posts about the different brands. Since I have an older :spyder: does anyone have a suggestion which would be the better way for me to go for grips? I've seen that there are ones that replace your whole grip and then there...

    Riding class today

    When I took my 3 wheel MSF course in July, the two instructors told a couple of us that we should take the Basic Rider 2 course..that it was more difficult and we'd probably enjoy it. Ok, I signed up. Pulled up this morning and the instructor looked at me and asked what I was doing...

    HELP! Is there a secret

    To getting the headlight bulb out of the light compartment? I have the gauge panel off and the end cap is off both lights but I can't unscrew the bulb...it won't budge. Any suggestions?

    USB Port Add

    I have searched this forum up and down, but it appears that there are no clear cut answers to adding a USB port to a 2009 Spyder RS. I found a really good one for the F3 where there is already a bundled connection for the customer to use. I'd like to mount mine like that one, but I doubt the...

    Hooking up a battery tender

    Battery "issues" While I was trying to add some reflective tape to my wheels, hubby was trying to put a battery tender harness on my :spyder2:. I thought he was going to go postal. Two hours later and it's still not on and he gave up. Do we have to take off all of the right side Tupperware...

    Headlights to LED's?

    Is there anyway to change the bulbs in the headlights of a 2009 RS SE5 to LED's by just changing the bulb? I ordered several hundreds of $$'s from Custom Dynamics and changed the turn signals, made my side reflectors into lights, etc., etc. but did nothing with the headlights. Also, when I...

    Happy Dance!

    :yes::yes::dg1::dg1: I completed the MSF 3 wheel course yesterday and got my license! I had a blast! I pushed myself and my Spyder to limits that I didn't know I could. I even got nanny to wake up and take notice. I highly recommend this class. I think we even converted a woman on her HD...

    So Confused-LED light strips

    I want to add some lights to my Spyder and have been reading threads on this forum....as many as I could find....but I still don't know what the heck I'm supposed to order or how they hook up. I see sets with toggles and key fobs, etc. but I want mine to come on when I turn on the key and stay...

    Are these modifications doable at home?

    Hi everyone! I've got my list of changes that I'd like to make to my Spyder and wanted to know if all, or most, of them are able to be done in a home garage: 1. LED lights (auxiliary) 2. BRP emblems to Spyder (spider) emblem 3. Foot pegs/boards 4. USB port (I watch video that was posted...

    2009 RS SE5 won't shift gears

    I just purchased my Spyder less than a month ago but have noticed that most times when I start her up, she won't shift into reverse. No rhyme or reason to it. I rode her to work this morning, pulled into a parking spot and thought I would turn her around and back into my spot....started her...
