• 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.

    Couple of noises coming from a 2020 RTL Limited

    The first noise is easily identified and probably there's nothing I can do about it . It's associated with the brake rotors when I'm going real slow and making a sharp turn. It's the pads rubbing against the rotor but the noise it makes is aggravating. I can't think of anything that could be...

    Lowering brake pedal 2020 RTL

    Over this past weekend I decided to do something with this brake pedal on my 2020 RTL that's simply too high. It tends to put my ankle in a bind when I go to put my foot on the brake and it's just not a comfortable position plus it lengthens my response time. Biggest issue in tackling this is...

    When I recently installed a swaybar, I noticed considerably more skid marks bottom side than i like. Most of it coming from my driveway a portion of it being gravel. Search for skid plates seems to point to spyder pops, but nothing on there web site about any for 2020. Anyone have a source?

    Headache from helmet

    Before buying the HJC I-90 that I ordered online I tried for almost a year to find a place that had helmets that I could try on. Covid disrupted the supplies everywhere I tried had zero inventories and I finally give in and ordered the HJC helmet online. When I got it I was pleasantly surprised...

    Using maps on cell phone

    I always have use Google Maps for navigation reasons in the car and thought it would be natural to use on the spider. Well it's not as most of you probably realize. Two things became evident. 1 the display on the cell phone will time out and go dark and you have to touch it in order to bring it...

    VSS Faults, what do you think is causing this.

    VSS Faults what do you think the cause is? The first VSS fault that I had I was beside the road with the spider idling foot on the brake looking at a map and suddenly the VSS fault occurred. That same day I had a similar occurrence and I related it to sitting, idling and having my foot on the...

    Miles to empty 2020 RTL

    I know this has been discussed before on here but I thought I just passed this on. I had an errand to run in town and when I left I had about 173 miles to empty, and about 35 miles on this tank of gas. I took the long way home back on some country roads and in that time I saw miles to empty go...

    I'm getting a VSS fault about every time I start the spider if it hasn't been started in a while. It's not running bad it seems to be okay but it made me check the software version which is apparently out of date comparing it to a post here about new software version. Also I check the fault...

    More on brake pedal 2020 RTL

    There was a recent thread here about lowering the brake pedal on a 2020 RTL. Another option is to raise the floorboards as someone mentioned in that thread. Lamonster has an adapter to do that. I took a block of wood 1 and 1/2 inch thick and laid it on the floorboard to check out what raising...

    Oil level... No difference cold or hot

    A recent thread on the Forum about oil capacity on the 1330 motor made me check my oil. I have a used 2020 RTL that had nine hundred miles on it I've got about fifteen hundred on it now. I was surprised to see the oil level check cold at the maximum point on the filler stick. So today I made a...
