• 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.

    Why Not Two New Stickies

    Jay, sounds like you should get the “go ahead” before you spend a minute putting a thread together. Wouldn’t that just suck if you put the gazillion posts in one thread and the post police said no?

    HowTo: 2020 RT Oil Change Warning

    The only thing that you need the dealer for is hooking up to BUDS and you can find out from them if there are any updates. If not there is no reason to take it in. Follow the manual and check the items on the maintenance schedule and document what you did, when you did it and what your mileage is.

    500 mile day ride on a Ryker 900

    I bet you were at Beatty Nut and Candy, there are always birds on radiator cleaning duty there! You picked a good day for the ride, much cooler today than it has been and the wind died down a ton from yesterday. People in other parts of the country can’t imagine going for 135 miles with no gas...

    Understeering in curves

    This is how we teach it Speed, Position, Aim, Turn. Adjust your speed before you enter the turn, Position refers to both your position on the bike (shift weight and lean to the inside of the curve) and your position in the lane, Aim all the way through to the exit of the curve, turning your head...

    What's your thoughts

    You won’t find many on this site who would say they are unreliable or not worth buying as this is Spyderlovers.com! In 17 the DPS (dynamic power steering) was changed but I don’t think there were many other changes. If one has an extended warranty I would go for that.

    Packing ideas F3 L

    Are you going alone? If so get a good dry bag and strap it to the seat. Use the trunks on the bike for tools, extra gloves, rain gear, snacks and your helmet. Except for the top box, the other compartments are too small to be useful for luggage. I like the Ortlieb Rack Pac 48L. You can fill it...
