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.

Welcome aboard!! :2thumbs:
Adding "farkles" to a bike is such a personal issue that I'd be reluctant to suggest anyting other than to check out the websites of our site sponsors... :thumbup:
More than half of the fun is in the shopping anyway! :roflblack:

Agreed. There are lots to choose from. Lights in all shapes and colors for mounting in any place, highway pegs, seat back, possum pushers, and other custom mods. I'd reccomend checking out the site sponsors and looking through the my mods forum for ideas.

:welcome: You will like the RTS. This model comes pretty complete. I recommend driving it a thousand miles or so in order to find out what you like or don't like. Then, let the farkleing begin.
On mine, I have added the trunk tail light, a different seat, some floorboards, and some glo ryder lights. That is all I have added in 20K plus miles--and I am pretty happy with it.
My first Spyder, a 2008 GS, had over $6K worth of accessories. It still did not turn it into a RTS though.
Keep us posted.

Congratulations on your new purchase. I would suggest that you ride the RT for a bit and determine for yourself what, if any, modifications you want to make to the vehicle. I suspect that the majority of owners here don't add too much more to their RT's because the trike comes pretty well equipped right out of the crate.
I do admit to having performed a number of minor modifications to my Spyder RTs since purchase in early 2010. Were any of these mods absolutely necessary.... not really..... but I enjoy accessorizing my RT to fit my personal tastes. It does come at a price however, and you will be surprised how quickly you will find farkles that you really "need". Good luck curbing what will become your new addiction.

Welcome
The RTS is a great machine and is very hi tech, I suggest you buy the extended warranty. I have a 2012 RTS and is not a month old yet. Only have 300 miles on it. The only thing I don't like about it is that it takes too long to start. It has to go through a procedure before you can start it and that takes about 10 seconds which in my humble opinion is for ever it seems like. Welcome to the forum you will learn a lot here and everyone is really helpful.

:agree: and :welcome:
Grandpa, I know you know this, but I had the same problem. I thought about it and now when I walk up to BR1, I put the key in, turn it on, put my helmet and jacket on, climb on and it is ready to start. Try it, you will like it.
