• 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.

Can someone show pictures of the lift / jacking points on the newer (2019ish) Spyder RT

I have a auto floor Jack and don't have ATV Jack.
Also where to put the Jack stands

Thank you!
 
A arms in front, and rear lower shock mount for the rear work well. If you get a bike lift, the frame makes a "T" underneath that makes a good lifting point.
 
Mazo specifically said the rear shock mount. I have a specifically marked piece of 2x4 for lifting using the mount. If one lifts using the shock and thereby the shock bolt as the lift point one can bend the shock bolt making it a devil to remove. There s history on this topic in SL.
 
To lift a spyder

I check my brakes, and change the oil as in the pictures, I made three wooden blocks, I use my car ramps to mount the front, for my rear jack that I press on the shock absorber.

Shock bolt or shock mount still isn't the frame. The manufacturer has always stated to lift by the frame only.
 
Put some pieces of board or some blocks on the jack if it does not contact the correct lift points.
