• 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.

1st Annual Indiana Chapter Spyderlovers Meet, Greet & Ryde

Glad you finally got a ryde in!!! :2thumbs:

I'm taking my spyder in to the dealer tomorrow for an oil change and recall +update, and whatever else needs done. I'm guessing they'll need to keep it.

If I take mine in, it is a two week waiting period. Hopefully, you'll get yours back quick!

Which recall is it? I had two done (ground wire and steering update), is that what you are getting done?

Two Weeks?! Good grief...my dealership (Action Motorsports, Lafayette) has my servicing and tech work done in a few hours. All I have to do is call ahead, to get a time slot on a specific day.:ani29:

I've always been displeased with my dealership, I've bought other toys from them as well, and it has been a hassle then as well. They are very unorganized and uninformed. You can't make appointments, and I bought the service plan which I was told means I take it in, and it is done ahead of those that don't have the service plan. They say to show up as soon as they open and it would be first if I got there first, but apparently not now. They said due to the early riding season all they are doing is prepping stuff for spring, no diagnostic work is being done right now. All I wanted them to do was to check the parking break and rear break, which would probably take half an hour at the most.
 
I purchased my spyder from Action Motorsports in Lafayette. I'm having the recall done and they are going to check to see if I need the ground wire. I'm leaving it there for them. I won't have an opportunity to get it until next Tuesday anyway. Hopefully they won't need it any longer.:yikes:

I'd be interested to know what they charge for an oil change after you have it done. Are you getting both filters changed on the SE or just the main one?

My last oil change was 169.90. I don't know about the filters or what they changed.

Do you just do the regular scheduled maintenance? That is all that I have been doing, I have a service contract for three years so I just take it in when needed and they do whatever it is they do free of charge unless I have to buy certain parts, which hasn't happened yet. So, I don't usually know exactly what they do!

RE: IN meet and greet

My wife and I are planning to attend. We would trailer the Spyder down because my wife can't ride that far with her bad knees. We are looking for a campground close to the meeting place. Could anyone suggest one?

Brown County State Park is a stone's throw from Nashville, they should have a campground, I'll see if I can get some info for you.

Heaven knows I'd like to ride down and intrude on this, but we have a family wedding that day. Sorry folks!

Bummer .... You can intrude any time Scotty!! :2thumbs:

BTW ... I'm sure we'll be planning a ride to Northern Indiana in the near future. :yes:
 
INFO

The meet will be at Casa del Sol, 51 Parkview Road. It's a good Mexican restaurant, east of Nashville on the south side of 46, between the southern part of 135 and the Brown County Park entrance. You can see it from 46, and if I can figure out how to do it, I'll get a map posted.
The southern loop I wanted to take would be a 4 to 5 hour run; I'm working on a shorter route that will give us some time to check out things in Nashville. Any ideas/suggestions would be welcome.

Is Everyone still coming?

Retread, the restaurant & route sounds good. It may be a good idea to get the restaurant a headcount and maybe we can have our own little private room:thumbup:

Also if we know who is coming for sure and from where, maybe we can set a meeting place around Indy somewhere and ride down together:dontknow:

So can we get a head count again and make sure everyone is still in from when we started planning back in Jan. I hope our friends from out of state can still make it.
 
IN Meet & Greet - we are coming!

My wife and I are coming from Mishawaka, IN. We are camping at the Last Resort RV Park. It sounds like the restaurant is close by. See you on the 17th.
 
I was really hoping to make this one but I have plans,hey Indiana terry I am in Elkhart we should get together and go riding sometime.
 
Well...

What time are we meeting again? I may end up having to take my spyder to the shop. Are we going to eat lunch and then ride? If we are doing that and my spyder is in the shop I'll drive my car to at least have lunch. Hopefully, I'll be there on my bike though. I plan on bringing a friend.
