• 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.

    Airhawk R

    SWMBO and I use Airhawk R's on a stock 2014 RT seat. They fit the rider and pillion seat contours and profile perfectly, and the ergonomics of the R's design mean there are no pressure points for us, even after a few hours of riding. As noted by others, all butts are not created equal, but I...

    Windshield for RT: Calsci vs F4?

    I have the F4 with vent installed on my RT. It works excellently to minimise the turbulence for me and she who must be obeyed (SWMBO):bowdown:. Their service was first rate, and it only took 20 minutes for us to install ourselves. Great piece of kit

    Dealer Hitch Install

    Just this morning I took the RT Ltd in for its 5000km check and asked for the price of a hitch installed. The dealer quoted $550.00 for the hitch and 1.5 hrs to install it, for a total of $775.00 Canadian, which Google tells me is $590 US Dollars.

    Experienced Riders and Riding Gear - Am I kidding my self ??

    My buddy and I went out riding last night, in 35C (95f) weather. I'm an ATGATT guy, and he was wearing jeans, running shoes and a long sleeved shirt, which frankly made me cringe, but hey live and let live. The interesting thing here though, is that under my CE armoured mesh jacket and CE...

    RT Seat replacement

    Both me and the Missus have AirHawk R seat cushions on our RT stock seat and they are amazing. Took it from a max 2 hr ride to an all day ride. They aint cheap, but are definitely cheaper than a new seat. http://www.airhawk.net/airhawk-r.aspx Steve

    Great Trip Yesterday: Over the Bridge to Prince Edward Island

    That bridge is 8 miles long and 200 feet tall in the middle, and I must say that Mrs Stig on the back was holding on for dear life on the way over, as we are tall enough on the Spyder to clearly see over the sides, but on the way back she felt comfortable enough to hold the camera and grab a...

    To gear or not to gear

    I am a firm believer of "it's your choice".....but, having been a paramedic for over 30 years and scraped far too many bike accidents from the tarmac, MY choice is ATGATT. For all the reasons as noted in this and other threads, you can be as safe as you want to be, but you have no control over...

    Ever seen a Stallion ?

    On a recent jaunt I saw one of theses in a local gas station. Never seen anything like it before, a bike/car/trike with a ford engine and a steering wheel. Very different, unique and HUGE. Not sure its my cuppa tea, but its definitely a head turner. I had my SPyder RT parked close by and I tell...

    Front trunk release switch

    I had a similar problem on my 2014 RT Ltd, could open the frunk easily with the key, but many times I couldn't get it to latch closed. Tried all the fixes as suggested regarding the seal around it etc, and finally realised that it was the mechanism/latch that was actually sticking and preventing...

    X-Creen Tour on a 2014 RT Limited

    Hi Folks, Been searching the forums for this but so far no definitive answer, so perhaps I can ask a question. My wife and I are are both quite tall (I'm 6.1 and she is 5.8") and we love our 2014 RT Ltd, but at anything over 45-50 MPH, even though she wears a Schubert C3 Pro helmet, she is...
