• 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.

    North to Yellowknife

    I am beginning to organize a ride from Ohio to Yellowknife, Northwest Territories during July, 2016. The ride will deviate through the Canadian Rockies and then head Northeast(ish) to Great Slave Lake and Yellowknife. I don't think there is much to do in Yellowknife so we will turn around and...

    I just had my favorite Mod Shop install some new plugs and new spark plug wires on my RT. He had the wires custome made and he was required to purchase four sets of wires.

    Fall Foliage

    Here are some pics from the Cherohala Skyway that I went ryding on last week. The second pic is of a poor Harley-Dude that must have been enjoying the scenery a little too much instead of watching where he was going. He was banged up but I think he survived.

    Lamonster Comes Through(again)

    I was in Maggie Valley when I noticed my ISCI handbrake wasn't releasing after braking. It being Sunday I couldn't go to a dealer for help. I did not have my tools with me. I gave Lamont a call and he said I could use his garage and tools to ferret out the cause. Some of you may remember that...

    Thanx Forrest

    I am on my way to Bonneville when I begin to hear thump thump thump from my rear wheel. :( I could also feel the thumping through my feet. I just had my rear tire replaced along with a wheel bearing at Cowtown. Since I was in Salt Lake I took it to Doc's and Forrest's favorite dealer in SLC...

    Bonneville 2011

    I thought I'd start a thread on the Aug. 27-28 Bonneville runs. I don't know if Doc is going to make it. I think SethO is planning on running. What about the rest? Who is planning on coming? When? Leaving from? What route?

    A New Spyder?

    I came across this guy on Plum Island, MA. He is an eccentric inventor well known on the island. The trike is powered by 4 Gel Cells and has a top speed of 35 mph. The motor is contained in the rear wheel. It has a hydraulic disk brake and a vicegrip for a throttle.

    Holy S#%T..I'm stuck in Erie

    I was on my way to my dealer in Corry, PA because my battery was bad (I think). I stopped in Erie to get a bite to eat. Afterwards I couldn't get the thing started. I got a jump but no dice. Called roadside assistance & the guy came out with a battery substitute. He jumped my battery...NO DICE...

    Poor Man's Dyno

    I just came upon an Apple App for iPhones. It uses the accelerometers built into the iPhones to obtain Miles/Hr, Dist, Horse Power, and Forward and Lateral acceleration. It is called gMeter and it costs $8.99 but it's pretty good. Check out their website at www.hunter.pairsite.com/gmeter/ The...

    Help..No Reverse

    The manual reverse on my '10 RT SM5 just crapped out. I checked the fuse (F7 in the front block) and it is OK. I had washed the Spyder in a commercial car wash (high pressure hose) and then went to the store. When I left the store I had NO Reverse:mad:. I am not sure I have time to take the 300...

    I think there was already a thread on this but I couldn't find it. My question is has anyone found a Windshield/Faceplate cleaner that works like RainX that won't damage the Plexiglass?:helpsmilie: It looks like we are going to need it next week.:sour:

    AMA #14 SR 170 in Ohio

    I took AMA's suggestion and rode #14 from their Top 15 MC roads in the country. The route is about 35mi long and runs from Poland, OH to Calcutta, OH. It was close to home so I thought I'd give it a go.:sour: I must say that I don't know how that road ever got onto the same list with the others...

    Milage problem SOLVED

    I installed a Two Brothers muffler at the end of last riding season and I didn't get to check it out until this season. I was impressed by the increase in horsepower:D but disappointed by an apparent increase in fuel consumption.:yikes: It went from about 28mpg to 21mpg. I (and most of you that...
