• 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.

    QUESTION: How do software updates work? When is it done?

    Update done I had my 2011 RT SM5 with only 1600 mi. To the dealer for the software update because it would stumble/hesitate when I would back off on the throttle and "coast" a little. When I'd roll back on the gas it would be rough and hesitate. The update stopped the problem. It needed no...

    Not a good start to Spyder ownership....

    Virgil naff in Lynchburg has 3rs and 7-8 rt on floor I was at my dealer today updating the throttle body software and they had a show room full of RTs and RSs as well as I'm guessing 10-15 in crates in the lot...... That's in VA..... Maybe you should look elsewhere? Greg

    Helmets.... what do you run and why do you like it?

    Schuberth c3 We have the Schubreth c3s. My wife rarely rides so only I have the headset. It is great because my IPod bluetooths with it so since I was a cheap bas###d and have no radio or comm package I now have music and phone in my helmet. My head is strangely shaped......flat in the back...

    Dave & Teddy's Most Excellent Adventures 2012

    Dave, I have never had a dog but we have friends with them (breader/show judge) and I remember one talking about anxiety. Sometimes it appears to be helped with routines and/or limiting their area to roam, i.e. a crate. You may not like those options. I saw tv ads for a security blanket...

    Shock advice from Cowtown

    This thread is most timely!! I took my 2011 RT in for its 600 mi service today. Going to the dealer (75 miles away) this AM was a good ride considering the roads were wet from the last few days rain. Got to the dealer OK but by the time it was ready this afternoon the winds were strong and...

    Picking up my 2011 RT SM5 on Wednesday...

    Thanks Scotty. I thought I had them all but was not sure. Mine is not a RTS so no auto rear suspension. I suspected that the re-flash for the throttle body needed to be done before I picked it up. Thanks for the confirmation. CAN'T WAIT:yes: Greg
