• 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.

    A little angry,and frustrated.

    I have owned two Spyders (2012 RTL and 2014 RTL (current one) - about 70,000 miles total) and never had a problem with a lost panel. However, here's the safeguards I did right away on my 2014 RTL. I used a secure line from the bike to panel "just in case" it decided to come off. I also...

    Automatic self-levelling rear air suspension- Do I Care?

    Same here. We had trouble with the leveling system on a trip earlier this year. I had the dealer look at it and they reset BUDS saying it was fixed. Well, it was NOT. We were on a 3 week trip with bike pulling our Freedom trailer and the compressor failed. I carry a 12V portable compressor...

    Buying Spyder RT advice

    +1 We have a 2014 RT Limited with about 56,000 miles on it - it has been a great bike. Great power, gearing, mpg, etc. We had a 2012 with the 998 cc engine and to us, was not what we wanted. Its gas mileage was very low at interstate speeds compared to the 1330 cc as we take long trips on...

    The first and only time the air suspension failed on our bike is this time when the bike has over 55,000 miles on it... No issues with the bike overall - We purchased it new in 2014 ....it's been a great ride.....I don't know why BUDS malfunctioned in regard to the air suspension.....

    Is my compressor dead?

    I just had an air suspension issue on our 2014 RT Limited on a ride recently. I took it to our dealer and it was found out the programming in BUDS was not working adequately for this system. I also thought I lost the compressor as I aired up the air ride system using the schrader valve...

    Has anyone installed this homelink garage door remote?

    I had installed an AutoSwitch Motorcycle Garage Door Remote Activator AS-7G (got it on ebay). Installed on our 2014 RT Limited when it was relatively new -- installed in July 2014. It has worked well and wires into the bike. I wired this to my fog lamp switch (as the trigger toggle) and when...

    Do you have a helmet on yourl Christmas list?

    Thanks for the feedback. Let me know how the SC1 works when you get it. I have read some reviews that prefer the SC1 Advanced over the SC1 ...it's a $ issue as the advance (go figure) are more expensive. Still nice for the integrated look and system if they work. We've had our 20S's for a...

    Do you have a helmet on yourl Christmas list?

    We also "scored" at RevZilla with buying 2 Schuberth C4 Legacy helmets. :) 53% off from $850 to $400 per helmet. :yes::yes::yes: We needed to upgrade from our Nolans that are over 5 years old. NOW, should I try to use my Sena 20S's on these new helmets or buy the ones designed for plug n play...
