• 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.

    Another Spyder dealer gone!!!!

    Was down in Ft. Myers this afternoon and decided to swing by WestCoast Motorsports, much to my surprise their store was closed. I remembered that they were going to move next door to Ft. Myers Harley so I headed over there and while they had a Kawasaki flag flying no sign was up for the...

    Said goodbye to the Spyder....

    Well after a lot of deliberation I opted to trade my Spyder off this weekend and have gone back to 2 wheels full time. The Spyder still IMHO remains an exciting ride and is a lot of fun, but for some reason that I can't quite pinpoint it just didn't satisfy me that much. Of course...

    Pulls to the left...???

    My Spyder recently developed a tendency to pull to the left under anything more than gradual braking. If I have to get on the brakes with any kind of effort it wants to pull to the left. The first couple of times it happened it almost took me into the other lane. I'm curious if anyone else has...

    Crazy day at work.........

    Not Spyder related unless you count the fact that I ride to work everyday. But I got to work this morning to find a bunch of sheriffs, fire, and ems trucks. Sheriffs weren't letting anyone in or out, thank fully my main office is a cross the street from the hospital. Turns out someone sent a box...

    Finally put on NMN risers......

    Well earlier this week I finally got around to buying the 3" risers from NMN, I already had the 1" brp riser on the Spyder. I took a long time debating about buying them because I wasn't sure if I liked the looks and I really didn't want to cut my bars if I wasn't going to like the risers. Well...

    Considering the unthinkable...A Windshield

    So after running over to Daytona and back this weekend on I-4 and considering I've got a late summer trip to Ohio planned I'm seriously considering buying a windshield. My question is who likes what and why do you like them. I'm 5'9" and have a 1" BRP riser on the Spyder. I'm looking for...

    Leaking valve covers

    Well called the dealer today to see if they found the source of my oil leak and was told they have to replace two valve cover gaskets and a plug wire. Parts are being ordered with no idea when they'll have them. Apparently there is a distribution center in Georgia and if they have the parts it...

    My spyder may have a problem......

    Noticed a couple of oil spots on the garage floor today, looked under the Spyder and the underside of the frame just in front of the exhaust was covered in oil. Pulled the left side panels and it almost looks like oil is coming out around the front drive pulley. The entire part of the engine...

    Darn nails......

    Picked up a nail yesterday in my rear tire and didn't notice it until today. So my question is has anyone yet gotten around to trying a car tire on the rear? I'm thinking about giving one a try.

    Cool X-mas gift

    Totally unrelated to the Spyder unless I'm watching it on t.v., but my wife got me a set of video glasses for x-mas and I think they're pretty cool. They're 16:9 widescreen format and are the equivalent of looking at a 52" screen from 9 feet. I can hook them up to just about anything including...

    4" Riser, I'm still debating.....

    I have no question after seeing how many are using these that they are a quality product and obviously dealing with NMN isn't a concern either. However it involves cutting down my handlebars and so my main question is has anyone who has put the risers on regretted it? If you didn't like the ride...

    x-mas present from the little green lizard

    For the second time this year that little fellow has dropped my insurance rates. I'm now at $307 a year for the Spyder and $148 for my V-Strom. :2thumbs:

    Couldn't let go of the weekend......

    Went to a small rally this weekend in Ocala that was arranged by my Florida buddies from the HD forums. Great 3 days of riding and hanging out. When I got home Sunday afternoon I wanted to keep going. So I took Monday off of work and had a nice peaceful day of riding by myself. The first pic is...

    Spyder confused me today.......

    Leaving for work this morning at 6, turned the key on the Spyder and no power. Wouldn't do anything. So I took the V-strom today. Got home this afternoon and tried to jump start it with no results, console would light up but as soon as I pressed the start button it went blank. Switched out the...

    Dealer called me today.......

    With questions on the Spyder. Said they had an interested customer and wanted someone who had the Spyder to give some input. Simple stuff about liking it or not and also was interested in the touring windshield and wanted to know about what I thought about it since I put one on. Guess I'll...
