• 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.

Bumpskid

Is there a video out that shows the installation of the Bumpskid on a 2014 RTS. Maybe it is so straight forward that one is not needed. Would appreciate seeing one if possible.

Thanks

Install easy

Just follow the directions that come with the Bumpskid. The hardest part is getting the bike up off the floor to get under it.
 
Very Easy to install

this is how I installed it on my 2012RTS

The bump skid was quite easy. Took less than an hour. Need to put the front of the Spyder up on some ramps so you have some room to move around under the front of the bike. The SpyderPops instructions were very good with clear directions. Take the existing bump skid off, then you place two "J" clips inside of the tupperware (this was the actual hardest part flexing the tupperware such that you can get to first two "J" clips in the proper location) and then screw on the SpyderPops bump skid with the two long screws. Using the bump skid itself as the template you then drill several hole in the bottom of the tupperware and two holes though the frame supports. Remove the bump skid and install "J" clips in all of the newly drilled holes, then reinstall the bumpskid in its final position. Run the wire up the A frame and it simply plugs between an existing connector for the running lights on the fenders. Everything you need to install is provided in the SpyderPops kit. Take you time and you will be fine!
