• 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.

    F3 or F3 S - auto or manual?

    The "thing" I always have in the back of my mind... One Day I Will SELL IT! An Auto is going to be easier to Sell. I've owned everything possible and I prefer the manual but in the Spyder the Auto is much easier to ride with the Auto.

    Probably an old question... is it possible to fit an RT in a 6x8 trailer?

    I'm currently trying to figure my best options on modding my TSC 5x8 trailer. I 100% understand your dilemma. I already have a 5x8 TSC trailer and I'm a fabricator/welder. My 2016 RTS measures 61.5" Outside of both tires. (My 5' Trailer is 60" inside the rails.) Looking at the 6'x8', in my...

    Trunk Gas strut

    The Strut is a Gas Shock. As Temperatures Drops in the Winter So Does The Amount Of Gas Pressure In The Shock so you'll notice the strut is just not as Strong as it was. (Yes, when the Temp Warms Up, the Pressure will Increase.) The strut/gas shock has numbers on the side, search them and you...

    Sad day.

    Gee Whiz... Bad News. I hate to say "It" Happens but "it" does. I built Total Loss Cars for years. In many cases, I have Driven them from the Insurance Auction to the Shop. Hit the U-Squirt-M Car Wash, pressure wash the Insurance Auction Numbers off (and scrape) along with Mud or dirt and...

    Considering Going From 2 to 3 Wheels

    And we're damn near Clones of each other... I've been riding since 1972. I've owned a lot of different motorcycles but more Harley's (still own 2.5). My knees are about shot at 64 11/12's years old. My GF started looking at H-D Trikes early in the Summer and I told her, "Look my 2018 M8...

    Battery Tender for 2020 RT

    I have 5 or 6 small chargers. I need to connect 1 to my RTs. I'd been considering building a magnetic plug for one of my cars. Connect the charger wires to the magnets (one North and One South) then mount the magnets under the car (it's fiberglass). The magnets make the connection, if you...

    Oil change - which way to undo the drain plugs?

    I LOVE IT when you Try to help someone and Offer a Logical Solution (i.e. "Set the Ratchet To Loosen BEFORE You Turn It UPSIDE-DOWN") and then get Kicked in the... Yea, Thanks Pal. I'm in 100% agreement, "If You Are Unsure, You Shouldn't Be Attempting The Task". I have Seen Everything...

    New spyder owner, old motorcyclist: is there a kit to add a handlebar brake lever

    TRUST ME... Look, I'm not a Tight Old Fart X-Harley Rider (240k miles) but paying $1,395 for the handlebar brake lever? Bull. Don't push it until you get used to the Spyder. How many of you/us Old Farts Applied The FRONT Brake FIRST Anyway before the Spyder. I think most old riders just...

    Shake Rattle & Roll - Tires Un-Balanced, Alignment or Both?

    I "thought" I'd use Balance Beads but they Are Not Recommended for Low Profile Tires! If the Tire is out of round, balancing will only help so much.

    I Hate To Be Negitive B-U-T

    Brutal... Most people Know Quality but DO NOT WANT TO PAY FOR IT. Manufacturers are faced with Volume or Quality. Most choose Volume but it can Bite You/Them In the Ass at some point. It's Not Only BRP, It's 95% of everything we Buy. Want a Bitch session, my 2018 H-D StreetGlide rides...

    I've been robbed!

    Something I keep ready at all times... A GPS Tracker. If you put a GPS Tracker on your Spyder if someone dicks with it and shakes it, BINGO you'll get a Text. I have numerous expensive toys and keep the GPS Tracker ready if I go somewhere over night or I used to keep it on my office desk...

    Trying to buy a Ryker... no one wants to sell me one?

    I decided when the new M8 Harley came out that I'd buy one. Going to a local dealership and test riding a bike. I told the dealer find me a Blue one and I'll Buy It. About 8 weeks go by and nothing. So I drove back to the dealer and spoke to him, "Yea, I remember you! I'll Call you when we...

    October 2020 Maggie Valley Rally?

    Interesting. Might need an October trip. I met a local last week who mentioned a Rally but I didn't catch exactly where it was.

    LED Turn Signal Mirrors

    I'm surprised they haven't addressed the TURN SIGNAL Indicator Issue. I've been thinking of where and how to add an LED or LED's. I started building LED Sailboat Mast lights in the early 2000's. Climbing 55' to change a 7 watt bulb once a year is for the Birds. I did 120 miles yesterday in...

    Front end shake

    My 2016 rode like a horse when I bought it with 2,500 miles. Jack up a front tire and spin it. Mine have Flat Spots. If yours have flat spots forget about balancing them. I have two new tires but haven't found time to get them mounted... YET.

    Thanks to the OP! I have a Fur Coat from Di-vorce #2. It's an expensive Black Fur that legally can not be sold in my State (I'd rather not say What poor animal it's from) sooo... I considered just chunking in the GoodWill Bin or? Since it's Black I do Believe I have a Darn Nice Seat Cover...

    Yea a bunch of us in the same Boat! My GF has a 38' Stink-Pot (e/2 Cat engines) she started looking at HD Triglides since she's SELLING the StinkPot. As a 40 year Harley Owner, I see a HD Trike as a WheelChair and I'm not there yet. I have a 2018 SG with the M8 engine. This SOB is HOT in the...

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

    I've owned the Spyder for 2 months. In the past 2 months the rideable Harley has Not Been ridden. It's a Hard decision for the basically New 2018 StreetGlide to just sit. My Harley insurance is 2.5x more than the Spyder insurance. I need to get the HD out and put a few miles on it to decide...
