• 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.

    The Auto Downshift is irritating for changes to 2nd & 1st - can anything be done to block those down-shifts?

    It’s programmed to keep the engine from damage by lugging at too low RPM per gear. Anticipate or avoid those slow roads. Or get a Ryker & no shift

    2012 RT Brake failure and parking brake lights stay on - any ideas?

    Good reboot ¿ maybe document all the relevant numbers & disconnect the battery; clean the terminals; give it a good top off charge; add star washers to the terminals when reconnecting. Then check the floats are not sticking in the brake reservoir. Remove the middle side panel on the RH side...

    HELP: U-Haul Enclosed 6’x12’ - Anyone tried one? Any tips or tricks?

    Don’t just look at the door, check inside, it might have wheel well humps too. Definitely shop around to find a utility trailer or otherwise. It doesn’t have to be enclosed, your Spyder can handle it. Please do not travel with your Spyder covered - wind flutter will scratch the paint...

    2011 Radio & iPod only work when the engine is not running - any ideas beyond what I've already tried?

    Tried any Bluetooth? Can you watch the iPod screen to see if it's staying connected or is it maybe loose?

    New Coolant will not circulate after refill, completing successful flush and change - anyone else? Any ideas on what might be causing it?

    What's YOUR Number One Favorite, Model & Year, of Spyder you'd own given the chance?

    Said here years ago unknown author: “Motorcycles are kind of like Baskin Robins... you're looking at 31 favors of ice cream. Don't you kind of want to know what they all taste like? 😊”

    Would you pay full price on a '25 F3S this late in the year?

    Found great deal as late as May 2014 on new 2013 at the time. Can’t say was I “waiting“, but thankfully, it worked out in my favor unexpectedly.
