• 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.

    Highway riding

    It's taken me a year to get comfortable. Lighter grip is true. I'm old and slow and avoid interstates if I can and haven't been over 70 and probably won't. It's hard to unlearn fifty years of habits, like they say you have drive it not ride it.

    Hope I didn't make a huge mistake!!!

    I'm old and don't understand why any of this is important. Only had my radio on once by accident and had to keep pushing buttons until it quit. Don't use the GPS either, did plug it in once but it's way to complicated for me. Of course I have trouble answering my phone.

    Is there a trick to checking the tire pressure in the rear tire?

    Understand, it is a pain for an old man!

    New Sea to Sky missing front speakers!

    I probably would have never known it, only have had my radio on once and that was a mistake trying to reset the trip meter. Don't know how I got it off, just kept messing with it.

    Finally!!!

    Hope you like it. Hard to believe someone would go from Texas to Connecticut, not enough money in the world for that.

    Spyder Sightings

    Saw a couple of Spyders and a couple of Rykers yesterday while riding southeast of Tampa. Perfect day for riding, little windy but not cold or wet.

    Golf Bag Carrier for Spyder

    I just lay mine crossways across the seat and use bungee cords, have done that with several bikes over the years.

    2014 RTS SE6 Won't start?

    Rode mine a couple of days ago for about 90 miles. Went out today and absolutely nothing. Seems I had parked the car a little closer and the spare key was in the car, was thinking I would have to haul it somewhere. Key has been moved.

    Not yet a Spyder owner

    Was riding yesterday and thought of something that I haven't seen brought up. For those that have rode two wheels many years is the width of the front wheels, easy to forget they're out there.A friend with a Goldwing conversion has almost run over his leg a couple of times. For me it's easy to...

    Not yet a Spyder owner

    I'm in the same boat. Have been riding 50+ and old habits are hard to break.The problem I'm having is not getting out enough, bought our Spyder in April I think and haven't put a thousand miles on it yet. I really like it but there is a learning curve. Would buy it again today.

    First freeway drive

    I'm pretty much in the same boat, not as smooth as I would have thought. Old habits are hard to break. I'm just not getting out enough.

    Crazy keys

    Work great. Would recommend a drop of superglue because both of mine came apart while riding.

    Do you still have a regular motorcycle along with your Spyder ??

    Only have the Spyder and don't think I can switch back and forth. Had the Spyder about two months now and haven't got used to the difference yet, not riding often enough. At least I have quit putting my foot down, still reach for the front brake at times. Fifty year old habits are hard to break.

    How bad it is without fenders?

    Before I bought mine and was looking I saw some in the Tampa area without fenders. Doesn't make sense to me, I'm old and don't like to get wet. Somewhat a fair weather rider, don't leave home in the rain. Same with golf, don't start in the rain. Could be an age thing.

    Now an Official Member

    Fifty+ years on two wheels so understand the learning curve, at least I've quit trying to put my foot down. Some of the automatic stuff is a little harder to unlearn. Not getting out enough for things to be automatic yet.
