• 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.

You make me tired:). I have to wonder if some of us belong in a 12 step program for people addicted to plastic surgery :)

When the Spyder bit me the infection set in very deeply. I am not sure even a 24 step program would do me any good at this point. :roflblack:
 
All of you have great looking Spyders, that is a fact. I wish I could go to personally take a closer look at them. I heard from a inside source (thats me) the one that removes the high windshield and adds the Ultrasport on, will easily win the competition. :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

Funny you should mention that. I actually took my stock screen to get it carbon fiber wrapped this past Saturday, but they weren't able to do it because of the angles. I am going to look for another place that might be able to pull it off, but for now the Givi screen will be on it at MV.
 
Mr. Orange, on a technical note I am wondering if your machine still qualifies as a Spyder. :roflblack:

That is a serious mod list. :2thumbs:
 
I think so. At her heart still beats a Rotax 990 with Nanny & friends still calling the shots. :D

Thanks. When I finally got done compiling it I thought it was pretty scary. Actually on pure mod count Doc has us both beat. The three of us have just done things in different directions. That's what it is all about, putting our own stamp on our Spyder to make it reflect our personality. Actually the really scary part is I'm still coming up with more things to do in addition to the things I didn't get done this first time around. [URL="http://planetsmilies.net"][/URL]

I'm still kind of hoping other will chime in with their mod lists or maybe that is the reason to start a whoile new thread just on that. :chat:

I hear you loud and clear, as I keep coming up with new things I want to do to my Spyder as well. Some of it I will likely wait until my warranty is up before I look into them more seriously. :D

I think Doc put down every part he has ever bought for his Spyder, because you know he isn't running the Kewl Metal straight pipe with the turbo. :D But it is all good. :thumbup:

I am also hoping others will chime in, which was the main reason I started this thread in the first place. I am pretty sure there will be more than 4 Spyders in the entire contest.
