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.
Getting some work done tomorrow morning

I just got the 2013 back today from having the warranty work and the laser alighment done. I had installed the BajaRon sway bar a couple of weeks earlier. Both were improvements. I now for the first time since I bought it feel like it handles as it should. Jury still out on the warranty work since it was near 96 here today.
Well i drove 230 kms today (one way) to have the swaybar and the laser alignment done. Wow what a difference in the way it handles. I couldn't believe it was the same bike. I can now do highway speeds and not have to fight to keep it straight. It also handles the turns much better. These service tech said it was out of alignment by an inch and a half. It was a completely different bike on the way home. I wish I had gotten it done sooner. You all were right, it makes a lot of difference in how the bike handles with the addition of the Bajaron swaybar and a laser alignment . I couldn't be happier. :thumbup:

Glad to hear about your improved ride. It was very noticeable to us when we had our Spyders laser aligned by Squared Away.

Anti-swaybar, alignment... OK, they are good things and help but you also have to set up your suspension. If you have any front wallow, consider jacking up the preload on your front shocks and having the right amount of air in your rear shock is helpful. I later bought some Elka shocks and have heavier springs and that made a large difference over just the stock shocks and BajaRon bar...
2-Up we run 70 PSI in the rear and I ended up cranking the front springload to the 5th and stiffest position. Big difference over just the thicker anti-swaybar. I got my Spyder aligned after all suspension work was completed by the incomparable Gray Ghost of Harper TX.

Sadly the stock front shocks on the 2013 and newer RT and ST's are non-adjustable. So this will not help the OP. Ron does make a spring adjuster that I am told helps a lot.

The shocks on the the newer RTs is not preload adjustable? Geesh, that is bad suspension engineering!

I agree 100%, I had the upgraded sway bar and the alignment done on my 2012 RTL now I also had it done on my new 2015 RT SS it's well worth the money.

I have them on mine... 
I added only two turns of preload, and it made exactly the difference that I was looking for! :clap: :thumbup:
