• 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.

    Alernate Gas Milage Thread

    Since the guy with the 2012 seems hyper sensitive, I thought I'd post a "more open" milage thread. In stock form, my 2010 RT never gave me over 25 mpg - then I modified it with a CAT delete, Yosh R77, new plugs & wires, non-ETOH gas only, and the milage went to the low to mid 30s (32-36). I...

    Rainy Day thoughts

    I was out of Spyderland for a year, after selling my 2010 RT, now that my 14 is here, I have realized how much I use it - I only put 3300 miles on my car last year, with over half being a round trip to Northern California, the rest for weather days.. I find that, weather permitting, I use the RT...

    Oregon

    Perhaps you wonder why anyone would want to live in a place as crazy/weird/faaarrrrr LEFT as Oregon? I found this short video that may answer that question for you:

    SlingShot sightings

    I don't know about where you live, but I've seen more SlingShots on the road in the last month, than Spyders over the last two years. At least out here, looks like Polaris has hit a sweet spot.

    New Project

    I just scored a really killer deal on a Vrod with less than 2K on the clock - I'll get her this weekend. As of this morning, I put a deposit down on a new scorpion conversion kit, and will do the assembly myself...

    SpyderLover's Pocket "T" Shirts??

    About 4 years ago, someone on the forum was suppling SL pocket "T" shirts. The ones I bought are getting a bit long in the tooth, & I'd like to find more. Anyone know it they are still available??

    A minor rant

    If you want service in my area, and not drive 100+ miles, my dealer has a captive audience. I chose to have them do my first service on my 2014 RT, and the minimum labor bill was $385 - if I had used their oil and parts, it would have added another $185. Laser alignment added another $300 to...

    Local Darwin Award

    My 38yo son has been an avid ATV duner since he was 5 years old. Yesterday, he sold his beloved Honda 700XX to a 20 something gent from Washington state, and he had a unique way to transport his new ATV. Note: he rolled it up the hood & windshield, and my son left very quickly thereafter - not...

    Personal Bike History Thread

    Sorry about the length of this, but I thought it might be fun to talk about the road bikes we've owned (Didn't include the ATC/Vs - that would have tripled the length! :yikes:). Here's my List of bikes Honda CB 160 This was my first bike – really my girlfriend’s bike, but she would rather...

    Harley, I don't get it

    Our member complain about being too hot on their 2013 RTs, and having to spend $1000 to cool them down. 2008 to 2013 TriGlide riders EXPECT to need $2000 worth of farkles to allow them to ride their trikes in town (255F at a 30 sec stoplight!!!!!). How do you get people to spend $35000...

    1330 CAT delete for the RT

    Has anyone installed the CAT delete (stock exhaust) on their 2014 RT? Is it worth the effort and cost?

    Vertika 2013 RTs

    Has anyone modified a 2013 RT with Vertika's cooling options? Did it work? Cost? I recently saw a low milage used 2013 RT LTD on a local CraigsList for $12500 OBO, and some dealers won't even take one as a trade-in. If the Vertika system works, and isn't too expensive, that might be a good...

    Stabilizing pricing?

    For those in the market for a new RT, scanning the RT ads, I noticed Spyder pricing seems to be stabilizing in most areas of the Country, with the 2014's being price trending closer to the 2015s. Latest data shows: 2012 RT "S" SE5 @ $18200 (stable) 2013 RT "S" SE5 @ $16090 (down) 2014 RT SM6 @...

    Laminar Lip Question

    Has anyone used one of these on their RT? What model number?? I had one on my Vrod, and it worked fine for that application. I bought the 25" vented windshield for my RT, replacing the stock windshield - the new one is narrower, and seems shorter, but it isn't - it just has a different...

    Sigh - went out & covered the RT, she won't be moving for the next 10 days... weather guessers are predicting non-stop wet weather for the next 10 days....

    Improved handling

    In another thread, I mentioned that I had a lot of scraping from "heaves" and cracks in the tarmac last fall, with my new 2014. This winter, I have installed Baja Ron's sway bar, and Doc's spring stiffeners. My RT no longer scrapes on bad roads, and has added 5-10mph to its cornering ability -...
