• 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.

Our first road trip on our new to us 2014 RT se6 was to Alpine. Biggest hazard was buzzards enjoying the numerous dead animals that littered the highway. Those passenger arm rests are really handy. They saved me several hours not having to go back down the highway looking for Martha. She stayed on the bike the whole way.

The soft Hopnel luggage that fits the "panniers" and the Frunk is great and quite cheap and fits like gloves.

It rained pretty hard on us as we approached Marathon and when "Nanny" sensed any hydroplaning she shut off the cruise control.

Be safe....

Congrats on the new ride. But why Marfa? I went through there once on a train (which stopped all auto traffic in the entire town) and didn't see much as a destination (except for the bar next to the train tracks which sells plenty of beer in brown paper bags to train passengers apparently).
 
Welcome from Corpus

Congrats on the Spyder!!! I love mine. I've had it for 22 days and have ridden it almost every day. You should make it to Spyder in the Hills in October in Boerne!!!! Enjoy and ride safely.
