• 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.

Put some new lights on the spyder, I picked them up on Amazon for under $10. They are a daytime style light not really a fog light but I love the look. I will try to post a pic or 2.20141106_163646.jpg20141106_182111_HDR.jpg
 
Very nice..!!

Nice lights in both cases. The heat from the radiators on my 2014 melted my A frame lights, so I am going to look for an alternative come next riding season.

about the melted lights. I'm planning my winter lighting projects on my '14 RTL. Do I need to stay away from the DTR lights?

DTR? not sure. I got mine from the dealer. I think they were custom dynamics. They had the foam backing, stick on stuff, that attached to the front of the A-frame bars. The heat made them fall off and then I noted the plastic strips with the LED's were actually melting where they came near the radiators.

Had exactly the same on my 2010 and never had a problem with them. I am going to go for lights that are not near the radiator the second time around.

Hope the information helps.
 
Don't know how to post a link just go to Amazon you will see them.View attachment 98636View attachment 98636
Thanks for the pic's. So are those yelloe LED's? Or do they just look yellow when not on?
Did you have to attach them to the Spyder using anything special, or just sticking them to the plastic A Arm plastic covers?

Just wondering because the led's look flat and the plastics on the Spyder are round on the edge.

Cool... I have the same lights. They've been sitting on my workbench for a month. Now that I see how great they're going to look I've got to get my butt in gear and put them on. I'm going to splice them into my fender lights.
