• 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.

    How many times can a Spyder be turned on & off between tries without failure?

    How many times could a 2015 Spyder be started with it turned off between tries without a failure. The amount of time is about the time to put on riding gear, jacket, helmet and gloves: 2 times? 3 times? 4 times? I will give the reason for the question later.

    Oklahoma Motorcycle Test is very biased towards 2 wheeled motorcycles

    I am in the process of moving from Colorado to Oklahoma. I will have to take their motorcycle test after I get there. I decided to review the test for the motorcycle to ensure that I can pass it. It has been WAY over 60 years since I rode a 2-wheel cycle, so I have forgotten a lot. Most of...

    4 PSI question for our experts

    Lately my rydes have been 20 to 50 miles with temperatures of mid to upper 60's. I set my pressures at a tad under 20 PSI for front and under 28 PSI for rear tire. Yes, unfortunately I have Kenda tires. I will be taking several 300 plus mile rydes with temperatures of low 50* F. Should I...

    The latest email advertizing that I got from Cam-Am re 2-wheel bikes.

    I know that a previous thread got closed. This may be a little different as it looks like Cam-Am is looking at a possible 2 wheel electric cycle not an electric trike. I am not trying to bring up the issue of electric vs ICE but 2 wheel vs trike. Here’s to the Future on Two Wheels Want...

    Do you think that the tech did the damage to this sprocket?

    I had the sprocket replaced last week and asked the service manager if I could take pictures of the sprocket. There was some damage to the teeth on the sprocket but perhaps could have gone a few more miles. But my concern is the large chunk broken off the outside of the sprocket. No, I did...

    I am near the point of having to wear glasses while riding. I have a modular full face helmet with a flip up visor. What is the best way of wearing glasses with such a helmet? Should I put the helmet on first then the glasses or the other way around? Are there any issues that I should be...
