• 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.

    Roadside assistance

    Seems like the guys that make the machine should know what it takes to transport it. Not impressive at all!

    Anyone done a BajaRon Shock Adjuster Installation?

    :agree: The spring compressor Ron offers is so good I went ahead and bought mine. Very good piece of equipment meant to work with the smaller coil size on the Spyder. https://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?121688-2018-RTL-Baja-Ron-Preload-Adjusters-Installed&referrerid=34189

    The motor will be in the casing around the pedal/front sprocket assembly.

    Battery change

    My 2018 is the same as yours. The battery isn't too bad, as long as you have the super double top secret handshake. By now you know it's in the frunk, accessible by removing the 2 Torx screws from the cover. These are the standard size for the rest of the Spyder. Next you remove the negative...

    Which one is the best???

    Mr Martin, I'm not running a cat delete (yet) but unless you do a dyno run on each, what would be the point other than sound? Feel of the pants? That's OK, but perhaps the sound influences that.

    Need help 2018 RT brake not releasing & b/light flashing

    That was one of the contributors to my failures, it would only manifest in the heat. Below about 90°F it wouldn't show up, everything acted normal.

    Need help 2018 RT brake not releasing & b/light flashing

    The 2018's have some known problems with the left switch pack (something to do with the parking brake circuit), and also the parking brake motor. Mine had to have both replaced under warranty. By the flashing brake light if you mean the indicator on the dash that is the indication of a brake...

    Aftermarket fender lights/turn signals

    You could make a harness with the OEM style waterproof connectors (which I have seen referenced as AMP Superseal 1.5). That's the ones you disconnect to remove the mirrors. But then you'd have to make the harness long enough to reach outside to the mirror, and I didn't fancy having all the...

    Aftermarket fender lights/turn signals

    I too installed sequential front fender lights, mine had plenty of wire. I find it ironic that the manufacturer makes the main tie in down by the suspension waterproof with an AMP 1.5 Superseal, but everything else either isn't waterproof or either actually substandard (the T-Tap). I cut the...

    Top Rear shock bolt?

    When I juggled my rear shock in and out, I found I couldn't quite get to the top bolt and nut at the same time. I ended up removing all the Tupperware and using a long extension and wobble socket on one side, and having a second person on the other holding backup, made this job easier (for me).

    2018 F3L suspension fault?

    Not an F3 Rider, but I think I read that the F3 Limited has self leveling rear suspension. If so, my RT Limited had the same problem when I made my rear shock adjustable. Simply put, the ride height computer keeps the air bag inflated to a certain narrow range of heights in the middle of the...

    Plugs under seat - 2019 RT LTD

    If it follows my pattern, you have 1 USB (The wide plug), a 2.5 mm microphone In, a 3.5 mm stereo line-out audio, and a 3.5 mm stereo line-in audio. What you can't see are the 12 VDC positive and negative hookup, which is somewhere under the Tupperware depending on which model you have. Edit-...

    Rear shock stiffener for 2015 RT?

    Mr. Steve W, From the number of air system failures written about the air compressor seems to be the weak link. Take one of those cheap, small tire inflators and make it operate at 50-90% capacity constantly and see how long it lasts. I found (on my Spyder) the air system constantly cycling...

    Rear shock stiffener for 2015 RT?

    I researched this pretty heavily and found some facts. Baja Rons spring adjusters are too small, they're for the front shocks. Here's what I did. Not too hard, but it reduced the pressures in the air bag to just enough to keep the wrinkles out of it. You can search my name to see what I...

    Harbor Freight lift

    Note the car ramp under the rear. I didn't drive it up there, it was placed. I feel if you don't have to rotate the wheel (belt alignment/tensioning) or remove the rear wheel, this provides more stability than a jack stand on the rear shock bolt.
