• 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.

    3/4 Helmet and cold weather riding

    Just switched from an Icon full face to a 3/4 helmet (Scorpian EXO 700 Transformer) and was wondering what people who use 3/4 helmets use for cold weather riding to minimize the "wind burn" from the cold air. I do have a balaclava for extremely cold days but this is more useful to stay warm and...

    Windshield Mod - Opinions/Suggestions Please

    Well I am in the market for a new windshield since the bottom corner of my Calsci cracked. I like the concept of the adjustable windshield that CHAD offers but do not really like the look of the actual windshield itself. I like the look of the BRP Ultra Touring Windshield but can't wait till the...

    Sorry Another CHAD Question

    Since it appears from all the pictures that the CHAD does not sit flush with the top of the console like the Calsci and the BRP windshields and actually sits above it slightly, just how far above the console does it sit and how much wind/rain do you get coming into the rider area from under the...

    Help finding a previous post

    With all this talk about LED lights I seem to remember a post earlier where one spyderlover added to the thread with links to webpages that contained info about using LED lights and "how they work". For the life of me I can not find that thread having searched on every possible combination of...

    Tribal Art Decal - Lamonster

    Hey Lamont is the image below that you posted in a previous thread the proper dimensions for decals for the spyder. In other words if I took the jpeg image to a local decal maker and had them enlarge it just right, would the decals exactly fit the panels on the spyder. Thanks in advance.

    Battery Gauge / Voltage Gauge

    With some of the mods I have added that suck up the small amount of power that the magneto produces I am toying with the idea of adding some form of voltage / battery gauge. Just wondering if anybody has added anything like this and if you did what did you use ? Thanks.

    Cooling Fan Manual Override Switch

    Well as I indicated in a previous post I intended to install a manual override switch for the cooling fan. Well this morning I finished the mod. Basically what I did was take a 12 volt source through a fuse (15A) and switch (25 amp rated) to the 12 volt power line to the cooling fan AFTER the...

    NMN Riser end caps

    I just installed the NMN 3 inch risers (I already had the BRP 1 inch riser installed). One very quick question for those who have the risers installed. I also ordered the billet end caps that go over the heads of the chrome handle bar bolts and the end caps to go in the hole left where the...

    Turn Signal Auto Cancel not functioning

    All of a sudden my turn signal auto cancel function is no longer working. I can turn the signals off after a turn by depressing the turn signal switch but it is so much nicer when it shuts itself off. Any suggestion on how or where to start looking to diagnose the problem ?

    Cougar Skull bottom

    It appears that the cougar skull (the pod containing the lights, gauge cluster, windshield mounts, mirror mounts etc.) is made of a top piece and bottom piece. Has anybody removed just the bottom piece for better access to the inside of the pod from below instead of through the gauge cluster...

    Removing the guage cluster

    Does disconnecting the gauge cluster electrical connector (to remove the gauge cluster for better access to the inside of the cougar skull) cause any problems for the computer ? Does the battery need to be disconnected before the gauge cluster is removed ? Thanks for the help.

    Electrical Question

    Many have stated that when hooking up auxiliary electrical equipment (i.e. lights, cooling fans) that they should be powered through a switched relay. My question is this.....if I have an electrical accessory that draws, say 6 amps, do I really need to power it through a switch controlled relay...

    Lumbar Support Belts

    I am planning on one or two long rides/trips this summer and wanted some feedback on lumbar support belts. I currently have the BRP stock seat and the 1 inch BRP riser and Kewlmetal highway pegs. While this setup works well for 95% of the riding I do (commuting to and from work) I find that when...

    Magic Man - Triple Play question

    Hey Magic Man I know that the CANBUS is a very finiky creature and to just add lights to your spyder as you desire will cause the CANBUS to have a hissy fit. Obviously the "black box" of the triple play (which by the way I do have installed) looks after this CANBUS issue. With this in mind is it...

    Modifying windshields

    I just put a Calsci Large windshield on my 2008 SE5. While the windshield is great I would like to "tweak" it just a tiny bit. I would like to put a very slight curve into it at the top and perhaps "bend" the small side wings out just a bit more then they already are. Has anybody had any...
