• 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.

    Spyder sold, I'm off, thanks all!

    Hi all It's been a great few months chatting to you guys but the Spyder just didn't do it for me in the end. I gave it my best shot over the 5 months I had her but it just cannot get anywhere near the thrills I get from two wheels. In addition there just aren't enough riders of Spyders in the...

    Pulled by the cops today

    Our bike cops here in the UK have some pretty tasty machines. Got pulled by one riding an unmarked black Yamaha R1. He had a word with me for doing 100mph in a 70mph limit, and 60mph in a 30mph limit. I was let off with a warning amazingly. He complained though that he was struggling to keep up...

    New rear fender and flashers on Spyder

    When I first got my Spyder the first things I took a dislike to were the European rear indicator housings (too big) and the ugly rear fender hiding that massive back tyre. So, I changed them with Kewlmetal indicator housings and a rear fender from a Kawasaki ZZR1400. Because of the minimum legal...

    1GB memory stick from BRP

    Got this in the post from BRP today. It includes a letter from BRP UK welcoming me to the Spyder community, plus a 1GB USB memory stick that includes videos and high resolution studio and location images of the Spyder. Anyone else get this or is it just a UK/Europe thing?

    Need wiring help with NMN signal lights

    Got the NMN signal LED's and the Kewlmetal bezel lights but because the LED puck wires are too short to go all the way through the light stud I need to know how to wire them in using the stock wiring. In the first shot you can see the puck wiring is too short for the attaching stud shown below...

    Kicked an M3 in the a** today!

    Some utter d*ck in an M3 with a registration plate reading 'p star' thought he could take the SE5 today. He was very wrong! He had to slam the anchors on as he misjudged a gradual bend and the Spyder took it with ease at 100mph, passing him on the inside. I'm not one for street racing but some...

    Some questions for NMN and/or Kewlmetal

    I'm after the NMN 'Rear Super Bright Turn Signal' kit but need to know a few things first. 1. Does it come with amber LED's. 2. If so will they fit straight into to the Kewlmetal 1.5" small bullet lights? 3. Is the kit plug and play with the Spyder and these Kewlmetal light housings? 3. Can I...

    RH light override switch

    I'm sure I've asked a question about this switch before but here goes anyway. The right hand light override toggle switch is apparently for lighting up the storage compartment when the engine isn't running. So then, why do the lower lights light up when you press this switch rather than the...

    The button that does nothing

    Anyone else got one of these on their Spyders? :) I think it is supposed to be the lights override switch (RH front), which I see no point in having in the first place. Even so, mine would rather play dead, instead of actually do it's intended job!

    Spyder edition numbers

    There are lots of pics on the web of Spyders with numbers on the bars. Are these just Special/Premier Edition models? My SE5 has nothing! Boo Hoo. :(

    SE5 gear change thump!

    I'm not sure this is my SE5 just settling in after the initial running in period so this could now be a normal characteristic but the change up has somewhat of a thump to it. I'm fairly certain is was smoother previously. From what I understand of the SE5 system, it drops the revs when throwing...

    Hi all

    Sorry for posting a hello in here but I couldn't see a newbies area. The name's Russ. I'm based in the UK and have been a Spyder owner for a month or two now, although I've been racing ATV's for a few years. Oh, and my member name comes from a few years further back when I used to ride freestyle...
