• 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.

I found one. Just bought my first Spyder. It's a 2009 SE5. I'm loving it. So much fun. My only problem is it burned my legs like crazy!!!!! Any suggestions?

Hot the 2 summers I had it , then traded it for my 12. Good luck. And welcome :thumbup:
 
y-pipe gaskets

check your y pipe gaskets. if they are burned up or a clamp is loose, the right side will get VERY hot.
 
muffler wrap

I used muffler heat wrap to take the heat away from the right boot.

I had an 09 GS and installed Spyderpops heat shields...Are you wearing good boots and at least jeans?...I really never had a problem before I installed the shields...They were something at the time I didn't think I could live without..:dontknow:
 
Welcome..!! Welcome..!!

to the roadster world and this site..great pictures and a fine looking roadster. There is a lot of heat on the left foot leg area due to the radiator fan blowing the heat out over your foot. Spyderpops (sponsor on the home page) has some cures for this. If you are feeling heat on the right upper leg it comes off the exhaust pipe which many wrap with exhaust tape. Otherwise sitting over the engine is traffic will be a bit warm on any bike. So shorts and toe sandals are not a good idea..little more ryding and you'll get uesd to it and love it more and more..!! :thumbup:
