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.

As I see it....
You only have a short pipe attached to the molded part going down to the column. You could remove the back covers to see where the pipes are mounted and cut back the covers to expose more pipe. I did that on my RS so I could add switches for extra lighting. :thumbup:

You have a 2017 RT-S? With these type handlebars? If so, lots of RAM mount options:
Center bolt-on mount, don't remember where it came from.
Ratchet-type X-RAM mount, just barely fits.
Hose-clamp type RAM mount. Don't tighten the hose clamp too much as it can squeeze the throttle and it won't return automatically!
JT's dash mount, you can fill it up with 5 RAM balls.
I don't really see a need to go cutting up the handlebar covers.

What exactly are you asking about? The reason I ask it on the RT there really aren't any removable covers except on the underside. Everything you see is structurally a part of the handlebar.

Thanks for your input. I am new to the Spyder and was not aware of the handlebar configuration issue. My intent is to use my old style clamp on Ram mounts but that appears to be futile unless I actually replace the handlebars entirely. That would not be cost effective. I think I will just get the dash mount system for my phone. Or..... design an adapter? Hmmm.
