• 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.

    Should BRP feel slighted?

    The Spyder is the only vehicle I've ever dispatched because of mechanical issues. Every HD I've ever owned has been reliable, for that matter I have never owned anything that gave me as many issues as the Spyder did. It is easy to over look one fault in a product. But multiple faults of varying...

    Steering problem, did it really happen?

    A very good point.. While I had my Spyder I noticed that the road itself plays a role in the way the Spyder steers at times. The times I had issues with my power steering was always a slower parking lot speeds. Then it was very obvious that the steering was binding.

    Let me just say I'm not happy either

    Lamont, the last thing that I think any of us here would say or think is that you've lost any credibility over any of this. You've given the Spyder a community that has provided a lot of good information to the masses here and I know have helped create a Spyder following and several good...

    anyone sell their Spyder?

    I got $10k for mine on trade, not too bad I though. Of course the dealer went out of business shortly there after.

    Steering almost got me killed!

    I can guarantee that I cost BRP the sale of at least 1 Spyder for certain. It was a rider that I didn't know before I had my Spyder, but we had numerous conversations about my Spyder and he would often drop by my work to get my opinion and check out my Spyder. I set him up for a test ride...

    Steering almost got me killed!

    I normally stay out of the "Spyder problems" threads, but I just can't help myself on this one. My Spyder was a maintenance nightmare, I counted among my problems the relay issues, bad exhaust gaskets, bad battery, steering problems, and bad head gaskets. The two reasons I ditched my Spyder...

    BUELL closing ???

    The York plant is going to close because of HD's plan to build a new plant here in the US that will consolidate some of it's manufacturing. I think the last 3 states in the running are Kansas, Kentucky, and Tennessee.

    BUELL closing ???

    It's the for real. HD included it in their 3rd quarter financial report. Not a big surprise really considering they never went out of their way to market the Buell. Also up on the chopping block is MV Agusta. HD has decided to sell that brand after having acquired it not too long ago.

    Can you bypass VSS?

    Experienced rider or not I can guarantee that disabling the VSS would provide you with a riding experience that you've never had before. When I had my Spyder I disabled mine, against the advice of one of the more respected members of this forum, and rode 2 full miles before I turned around and...

    cardo scala rider Q2

    Most of the problems I ran across with the pairing of cellphones was an issue with the phone itself. When I first started using the scala I had a Palm Treo and it sucked with both the headset and going through my gps. With my Blackberry the clarity is excellent either way.

    Another Spyder dealer gone!!!!

    Was down in Ft. Myers this afternoon and decided to swing by WestCoast Motorsports, much to my surprise their store was closed. I remembered that they were going to move next door to Ft. Myers Harley so I headed over there and while they had a Kawasaki flag flying no sign was up for the...

    Motorcycle Crash!!!

    If you've never driven a semi then you don't realize how hard it is to see small vehicles out of your mirrors at time. A good bit of advice is to spend as little time as possible along side the semi between their rear wheels and the cab.

    Reluctantly let my 2 wheeler go

    I actually did the exact opposite, sold the Spyder because I found myself wanting to ride 2 wheels more than the Spyder. I always had at least one 2 wheeler in the garage along with the Spyder but just felt like the Spyder was to expensive of a vehicle to sit so I let it go. I'm now back to 2...

    Big Ear - In Ear Stereo Ear Plugs

    I had a set made a couple years aog and use them very little. On long rides they start to hurt. Plus their customer services sucks. Took them 10 weeks to make mine and hsip them to me. Also unless you come across them at a bike show it's hard to get one of their "independents" to schedule and...

    Warning bike goes into auto pilet, and accellerates itself.

    My Geico policy covers towing of motorcycles. Even had a deal where I didn't want to use the service they were going to send out so they let me call my own tow and all I had to do was send in the tow receipt and they reimbursed me.
