• 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 did you do to your Spyder today?

    I packed a nice lunch and rode down to Benbow, CA. Used to be a nice man-made lake there years ago, but the environmentalists couldn't have that, so they took the little dam out. Now it's a State Park that's not used much, but that was my destination, because it overlooks the river, and it has...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    @rjinaz86323 ^ I had to retire a perfectly good HJC 90 for the same reasons you mentioned. Only difference was the locking mechanism had a specific bolt that you cannot purchase. Good news was HJC gave me a 100% refund on the helmet after 1.5 years of use. I thought that was good on them. I...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Spent part of the afternoon in the garage cleaning and inspecting. If you have Shad Bags installed you might want to check "ALL" of the Phillips & T20 screws that hold them together. This is the 2nd time I've re-torqued all of them and they've needed it! Twice in almost 15k miles. They all...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Its Winter and here in Nor-Cal that means rain and fog, but for the past 2 weeks the wx has been misty in the morning, but dries up (dry roads anyway) in the afternoons making it possible for some riding. Unfortunately my entire family has colds. Bad ones. Not covid, but flu like. I was the last...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    That's a weird one. Good job on getting it out. On the 1st oil change on my F3S, I put the Allen socket in the head and rapped it with a hammer to break the tension. They all came off fine. On the 3rd oil change I put the gold hexhead plugs in. The original plugs were still good, but... Murphy's...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Went for a cool 100 mile ride down to the South fork of the Honeydew river. It was nice and sunny and 48° F. I don't particularly like to ride when the Sun is so low this time of the year, but I must ride.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    We're having lots of rain and flooding here, so no riding for the next week or so. It gives me time for my other Hobby. Amateur Radio.

    Does anyone decorate or outfit their Spyder for Christmas?

    Here in California its illegal, and probably causes cancer.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Rode North on Hwy CA 101 up to the rest area near Trinidad CA, and stopped to clean my faceshield and mirrors. It was sunny when I left, but foggy up North, and a bit chilly.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I put the Winter Windshield on (a Blacked out Route 129), and went for a test ride. Sure is nice. A tad noisy, but very comfortable when riding against the wind. Up here in Nor-Cal, there's lots of Redwood Tree Bark (big chunks that fly off the log trucks) and litter the roads. I believe the...

    Rode down South to Fortuna, CA to visit my Brother. Nice ride, and no wind or mist.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Today, I might go for another ride. I just got through cleaning it up and doing the pre-flight inspections and fluid checks. While cleaning the left wheel, I found a roofing nail with half of the head wedged between the tire sipes on the Vredestein tread! It didn't penetrate the carcass. Whew...
