• 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.

Just purchased 2013 Spyder RT Limited

Hello all,

I am brand new to this forum and new to the world of Spyders. I bit the bullet today and purchased a 2013 Spyder RT limited. It has been many years since I have had a 2 wheeled motorcycle and never owned a three wheeler and obviously never owned a Spyder.

We are very excited. We pick up our Spyder on Thursday as we purchased it still in a crate. We purchased new Shoei helmet, scorpion jackets and will purchase a uclear communication system tomorrow. Ordered the bump skid this evening.

I have been researching all of the forums on this site and have learned a lot. Which was extremely helpful in purchasing the Spyder. The dealer is ensuring that the Front Stabilizer link rods are updated and that the fuel cap is the new version.

So I am looking for advice and information that I may need to know before I start down this new journey. We live in New Mexico where we have beautiful mountain and desert ranges to travel through.

Not sure if this is appropriate but my email address is: [email protected] for anyone that would like to provide me with advice and or information.

Thanx to all in advance for your responses.

Thank you all for your words of wisdom. I have printed the do's and donts and am reading over them for the second time.

Welcome to the club :yes: I have read my owners manual 3 times and probably need to do it again. It reads as good as any novel to me.:thumbup: I also check here regularly using the "New Posts" button up top. It keeps me in the loop and I have learned an amazing amount in 2 mo. The search button works well too. I am still trying to read every post ever made but I should live so long.....:)
