• 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.

    Is Belt Dressing Worthwhile

    Hi All! Harley sells a dressing for their belt drives. It came in a tube and I used it on my old Ultra, which seemed to help (better cruise speed, possibly better shifting, etc.). So, would/is this beneficial for a ‘20 RTL regarding noise or life expectancy?

    2020 RTL: Does “Eco” mode actually work

    Hi All! I can’t find the discipline to drive an entire tank in “Eco” mode ‘cause it feels like someone pulled one of the plug wires. Perhaps if I knew it could actually get another 25-30 miles of range I’d have necessary motivation. Or does it primarily work in city driving and not so much at...

    New RTL-a keeper

    Hi All! Took spyder to supermarket for diet cokes. RT swallowed three 12-pack (cans) with room for more. Took daughter on ride including blast down interstate: she loved it. And went on 140-mile round trip ride to nearby mile-high Yarnell with my wife: and she Loved It! Woohoo! So, at this point...

    Got New RT...mystery solved

    Got new RT but ... Hi All! Took delivery finally last Friday of my ‘20 RT Limited. Woohoo! Take wife on ride Sunday to Canyon Lake, stop for gas, and...she no starts. WTF? Battery seemed ok. Called AAA for a jump (they don’t cover motorcycles unless have Premier coverage BTW). So $425 later...

    We Need an Oil Additive Thread

    Fellow Spiderites! So the video from Petron Plus shows it as the only additive able to prevent the bearing, used by peddler with a beam-type torque wrench, from stalling out the electric drive motor. So isn’t that proof it should make a 1330 Rotax motor last mochos longer, etc? Anyone use this?

    Tall Windshield hurt mileage

    Hi All! Did a search and didn’t find mention of this. I used to have a Beemer and some of the RT guys (as in r1200rt) mentioned that with the shield in the up or near full-up position the gas mileage took up to 2 to 3 mile/gallon hit. This is not so much an economic thing as it’s a range issue...

    Nomenclature 2020 RTs

    Hi All, Was sitting at a light behind a ‘vette with a personal plate: “C6 2005.” Sooo, does that make the new RT/RT Ltd an S3, or Gen 3, New Gen...Gen Current, Latest One, or just New one? Or stop daydreaming about my new rt and pay attention to the road? 🤗

    We need another Tire thread

    Hi All! New spyder owner-to-be. Comment/Question: first dealer visited told me car tires have softer sidewalls which have a greater “roll under” than the stock tire which thereby makes the “electronic nannies” come on sooner (computer senses change in tire dimension thereby applying brakes)...

    Ordered RT Ltd - Awaiting arrival date

    Ha! New member here! Ordered last Saturday. Part of the “fine print” in the list price is the setup charge, which looks to be 6 hours or so in my case (based on an hourly rate of $165 per). Do they really take that much effort? Or should one feel uplifted they spent that amount of time? Or did I...
