• 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.

Lift / Hauling Question

We are in the process of preparing to "go on the road" for a few years. Currently the 'rig' setup is a 45' Tiffin Coach and my Veloster in tow. I have seen a few coaches with a dual motorcycle lift on the rear and towing a car.

- Is there a motorcycle lift that will accommodate the Spyder?

I know that the weight is not an issue but the 'y-layout' can be. (In fact it such a problem that freakin' Amtrak no longer allows Spyders on the 'car train')

Thanks in advance for any advice you have.

Take your trike and the car. Less weight added to the back of the MH. They make with platform up to 10'long. You can also use a 6' platform and run Spyder side to side and i
f length of Spyder is an issue, just angle it up a little to get to the 102"

OR an extension. Just remember that some states have laws as to how far you can extend from the center of your last braked axel. Washington is 15'. Again, if length of Spyder is an issue, just angle it up a little to get to the 102" width of MH.
