• 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.

    Anyone got Pics of a Spyder on a 6x10 trailer?

    Here's my 2018 RT on an Aluma 6310 trailer. A 6 foot trailer would be 9 inches wider. In order to get it loaded, I had to put the rear wheels of the towing vehicle up on blocks, to keep the Spyder from bottoming out. A longer ramp would be handy.

    Yuasa OE Spec Batteries out of stock - What's my best alternative?

    A few weeks ago, my battery died when I stopped for gas, and my jump pack didn't help. So I picked up a Super Start battery from O'Reilly Auto. So far, so good....

    With my luck, if I tried skates, I'd hit the downhill slope and not be able to stop. So no thanks!

    February Weather News 2022

    I took a walk this afternoon to check out road conditions. This is how my road looks after yesterday's thunder sleet storm and the freezing rain. With a high of 31°, there wasn't much thawing, and expected low of 19° tonight won't help. I don't anticipate going anywhere for a while.

    Cruise control issues on 2021 RT - not working; anyone else?

    On my 2018 RT, the resume/accelerate switch seems to work best when I have no throttle input. I can accelerate to near the set speed, then roll off the throttle and actuate the switch while coasting. Green light on dash comes on, and speed maintains.

    Where can I get power from for an a/mkt GPS?

    On my 2018 RT, the GPS wiring was two wires. I don't remember what colors they were, but I think they were violet/yellow and black, based on the wiring diagram. I purchased these connectors to extend the harness. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B014IU2EE2

    Newbie with questions on ordering a 2022 model

    I had a Ural at one time; bought it new in 2006. My mom had to ride in the sidecar the day I picked it up.

    Spyder Sightings

    About noon today, I caught a glimpse of a red Spyder eastbound on Arkansas Hwy 10 in Booneville. I think it was an RT, but didn't really see it well enough to be sure. I was in the parking lot of the Chinese restaurant, about to get on my white RT.

    Tires again

    A couple of days ago, I noticed the center of the rear tire on my 2018 RT was showing wear. I contacted a dealer about 40 miles from here to check on options for replacement. Since they are fairly new to the Spyder game, they advised me that they had never done that job before. They said the...

    A new ride for us

    A frequent ride for me. The road on the south side has some nice tight curves.

    This is what I had in Logan County, Arkansas this morning. We got about 7" of snow yesterday, it's still hanging around. More expected tonight.

    Simple music problem on RT

    Did you make sure the volume on the player is turned up enough? I had that issue when trying to play mp3 files. I guess my 2018 RT needs higher auxiliary input than the player provides at normal volume, so I have to turn it all the way up.

    Medium priced seat pad for Spyder RT?

    I had a chance to try the seat pads today. My girlfriend and I both think they work well. After being parked in the sunshine, they were definitely cooler than the factory seat would have been.

    Medium priced seat pad for Spyder RT?

    I got these for my 2018 RT. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B088PLFHW2/ I haven't had a chance to try them yet, since I just got it out of the shop today. Had enough ryding in the rain just to get it back home.

    Have you had an ECU Flash? How long did it take? Any good?

    I'd say that it's quite likely. I haven't had a flash done, but when the dealer did my first service, they connected to update my software. In the process, they accidentally wiped my ECU, and I had to wait for them to restore it.

    Why key on when moving

    Here is what my manual for 2018 RT says: Pushing the Vehicle NOTE: Before pushing the vehicle, ensure the ignition key is in the ON position. CAUTION Avoid pushing the vehicle on a slope. If you must push the vehicle on a slope, take extra care to stay within reach of the brake pedal in case...
