• 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.

2013 fenders on my GS-R

They do look good but for $650.00 mine do look good as well ill spend the money on other mods and if my fenders start going south than maybe these new ones would be a likely upgrade.

I get what you say...I guess I have a fender fetish since I also replaced my Ducati's OEM fenders for carbon fiber ones.:roflblack:..
 
Did you do both Ducati's?
Yes, new fenders for all my bikes..the ducati is now at the shop being painted to match the color of the Spyder.. An Italian bike with the color of a Canadian one;)
i will post pics when I am done.. Booth bikes will have matching colors :yes:
 
Hi All,
I have been lurking around for quite awhile now and have learned so much about the Spyder through this forum. I am just about ready to pull the trigger on a 2012 rs and wanted to start modifying her ASAP ;). Anyways, my question pertains to both the fenders and rims. Can I install the new 2013 fenders and new 15" rims on the older 2012 and prior spyders? I've tried looking for the offset on the older rims compared to the newer rims and could not find it. Just afraid that the new rims might not clear the older brake set up. Any help would be appreciated and I look forward to learning more from all of you! Thanks again
 
Test of the new fenders

This weekend, I rode the spyder to meet with the folks from FL on the meet & chat gathering.. What a fantastic group!
after a few hundred miles, i have to say that the new fenders did the job :thumbup:

Hi mellowcmb,
To answer your question yes the 2012 wheels are 14" and the new wheels are 15" so as to clear the larger rotors and Brembo calipers.
Using the new 1013 fenders and wheels should be no problem now u can upgrade to larger rotors an Brembo brakes on your 2012 RSS.

Mike,

thank you for your input. I've also been in contact with Spy and he had some great advise for me as well. This forum has been a great resource so far!

Hi mcaccamise, the brackets cost $399 and the fenders $249. Part number for the brackets is 219400359 and for the fenders is 219400423. Since they are OEM, you could get them from Bert's a site sponsor.
share with us pics after install:doorag:
cheers,
 
I'm liking those alot Doug, bike looks great! Are the fender lights live? turn signals etc?

Yea, same as the other fender lights stock... Basically the front white LED's light up. Don't flash or turn or anything though. All plug and play.

They have them in white too......;):D
