• 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.

My Spyder rides "Squirrelly"

+1 on the FOBO, they are awesome - quick glance at the phone and I am good to go - or top off the tires. I had a similar new delivery experience - picked her up brand new from dealer and just assembled, drove it home 65 miles and thought everything was ok (what did I know about handling, etc). The next time out was with a friend and he said my front tires looked low so I checked and sure enough they were like 12-14 so it had to be dealer never fully filled them. Now I keep them at 20 on FOBO and will top up if they get more then .2 psi apart or < 18 and they will swell up to around 23 when hot. Seems to be ok. I do have issues when cornering fast with nanny, but that may be sway bar, alignment or something else.
 
spring rubbers

if you weigh north of 200# like I do, and especially if you wish good handling when riding two up, then the shock springs are not up to par...as in they are too weak with no adjustability

consider what I did is install "spacers" which are made for the snowmobiles, but also will shore up spyder springs.

+2 on the Polaris spring rubbers suggestion.

Just did that to mine, using only about 3" of spacer on each spring.
Made a nice positive change. We ride 2-up with frunk/trunk and saddlebags comfortably full
