• 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.

Cleaning your Spyder?

OK, I'm being serious now, no really. Is there any special cleaner that works good or better than others on the body work of the Spyder? I used an automotive cleaner and it seemed ok but I'd like to give it a Really Good Cleaning and then use a detailer to touch up the bug splats and road grime when needed.
 
We sell a lot of gift packs and it's a good way to try the product out.

Hard to say...

I have used many...Motorcycle shops have a bunch some put out by manufacturers like Honda and Suzuki and others like Plexus and protect-all and recently lamonts own Diamond. Back when plastics were just coming into being there were none and the best was Pledge, I like lemon myself. Auto detailers are good seeing as half you car is plastic now but I say it is hard to tell because if your spyder is really dirty even just wash and dry makes it look new. Now the hidden protection would be the trick. I have not tried them all but have to say for the price and availability I still go for the Pledge while on the road. For the at home cleaning the Diamond is great. :dontknow:

What do you ryders use to clean that Plexiglas windshield while on road trips? Pledge for the body and chrome?
 
cleaning your windshield on the road

I know I'm going to get flamed for saying this but a fully wet paper towel with the windshield wash solutions @ the pump works just fine.

No scratches or other problems; but ya got's to have it wet and soapy, then dry with a clean towel or use a dry microfiber to dry off with.

37K and don't have any scratches swirls or other problems.

Well....

I use it on everything. May not help those who look through their windshields but most of them do a good job even on the clear stuff.. :dontknow:

+1 on the Pledge. You used to be able to find it in unscented but I haven't seen that in years. Coming from a Yamaha background,I really like Yamaha's spray detailer. Most dealers have it,it is a faily big can and usually under $10. Pledge is still good ,even scented and really cheap. Both will do a great job ob the windshield

Cant go wrong with a quick detailer for sudden bird splats. Im a big believer in a thorough wash...clay bar... and good waxing...1-2x year if needed. IMO
 
I learned about lemon Pledge years ago. Use it on my 1989 Honda Pacific Coast. When I bought my 2014 RTS, I started using it on that. I highly recommend it! It does a nice job.

I use Pledge on mine in between major cleanings. It leaves a great shine and a lot less stuff sticks to the Tupperware.
