• 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.

Departed with my Spyder today

I hear ya Crusher. Please don't interpret what I wrote as anything overly negative on the Spyder. I have enjoyed riding this machine for nearly a year now but there are things that are starting to bug me about it. Inadequate tire life is just one. I also don't like how restricted the engine is. It doesn't lean. Range is limited. I'm not sure I trust the drive line any longer.

But these are things that I am evaluating and will continue to monitor. There is definitely a big place in the market for the Spyder and I have not given up on it yet. But I am finding that I want more. That's all. To be continued!

That's fair...you have to do what you are comfortable with...whatever you decide to do, just be safe! If the Spyder is not a good fit for you now...maybe a few generations of Spyder down the road will suit you better (like if they use that patent for leaning tires)...
