• 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.

    What's this shaft for on Left Side of my RTL under/behind front sprocket?

    So I was under my 2018 RTL looking at the sprocket/pulley. It looks clean. But under the sprocket there was a splined shaft with nothing on it. I am assuming that shaft is for the manual shifter Spyders. Questions: Does it turn? What happens if I turn it? Is it for the manual shifters...

    Red Dust of Death Recall???? Front Sprocket Recall - FINALLY....

    I was unable to find a video on removing the front pulley on the Spyder. Only on the F3. Is there a video instructions for the 2018 Spyder? I'd like to take a look at the splines before I put too many miles on it before the dealer fixes it. Thanks.

    How to reduce the loud knock when you put it in first gear?

    Just like a Harley and other bikes when I start the 2018 and put it in first gear it makes a heck of a noise. Clank! or Knock! Is there a way to make it more quiet? My oil is fresh by the way.

    Compare a 500 mile ride on a Spyder with same on 2 wheels?

    73 here. If after giving your used spyder a thorough ride test, and you're still uncomfortable you may need alignment or a set of tires. The previous owner sold it for some reason. No big deal. However it will probably be fine after you get used to it. Happy trails!

    Too cold for me and my Spyder

    I think most people are unaware of the decrease in cognitive abilities in the cold. And that's too bad.

    13/16 spark plug socket for lugs?

    Fellows! The machine is designed and made in Canada. Maybe a spark plug socket works just fine. But is not the correct tool. Metric tools in Canada.

    A Key Question?

    Yes, well my cousin says thanks. We both live in Ohio and we're here in Florida on vacation. It's a darned good thing he had the spare with him! Not locked up in the safe at home. I had to have the entire DESS module replaced on my 2011 RT a few years ago. A real pain! (2018 RTL now)...

    A Key Question?

    My cousin's key got broken in the washing machine. The machine ate the metal part that goes into the keyhole. He has the top chip part. Can he order a new key online or from the dealer? Can he have a new metal part cut and keep the chip part with it to use as a spare? Like on a key ring...

    Windy Days are for the Birds

    So you have a new Spyder with only 2500 miles in four years? I would wonder why the first owner sold it. Did it handle poorly for them? I concur that the wind sucks but suspect the need for a sway bar and a good alignment. It made a world of difference after I took care of the front end on...
