• 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.

Good cheaper windshield option

Like many, I baulk at the prices BRP charge for accessories, but had almost made up my mind to get the new Adventure windshield.

It's taking a while to become available so whilst patiently waiting I remembered I had a Puig Touring ll windshield from years ago. It fits the Ryker like a dream and really enhances the lines. Best of all it's very reasonably priced.

I had a windshield from a GW 1200 ..... I trimmed a bit at the bottom to fit and designed mounting brackets to attach to the handlebars .... my windshield actually " turned " with the handlebars ..... back in 12, I was at a Spyder event in the Adirondacks in NY and camped with " Arntufun & Holly ... plus Dave " CyncySpyder " with Ted's Red Sled ) and they did a really funny video about my 08 and all the Mods I had done ".... it inmight be in the archieve's here somewhere .... >I did find some pics posted by Dave on 8/10/2012may be Wyliec can post a link .....
