• 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.

New to the world of Spyder

With all that said, :firstplace:THIS FORUM IS THE BEST PLACE TO GET ANY AND ALL IMFORMATION ABOUT THE SPYDER THAT YOU COULD ASK FOR:firstplace: Lamont, the Adminstrator of SpyderLovers.com is one of the BEST Ambassadors BRP could have EVER asked for IMHO. He is genuine in his passion for the SpYder & in also in bettering himself in his knowledge of the SpYder, & he doesn't even work for BRP. I've personally met him (camped out at his place after SpyderFest even) & many of the other SpyderLovers Forum members, & it's much more than just a website. We are all an extended family doing whatever we can to help another forum member out;)I've personally never experienced anything like this before & can say I'm truly amazed how one machine can bring so many different people from all different cultures & walks of life together:thumbup:

It's more than a machine, it's a passion. I hope your friend makes the right decision for himself & that we get to welcome him into the family soon :2thumbs:

Yes, I know Lamonster is an ambassador for the forum. He also monitors the gl1800riders.com forum where I participate in and I've learned much about my bike from there. All of the mods I have done to my bike are a direct result of reading that forum, most of which I would never had attempted on my own without the knowledge gained there.

Thanks for the welcome from many of you. I look forward to learning a lot more about this machine they call Spyder.

I am really excited that my buddy will be able to experience the thrill of riding. It's so hard to describe to someone that's never experienced what motorcycle riding is all about. We've been best friends for over 30 years so I know it will be a great new chapter in my riding life.
 
Hey Dan!!!

Another first time poster here. My wife and I just completed a trip to BC a couple of weeks ago and we met a lot of bikers. We have had 3 two wheelers before. We saw our first Spyder last week and had our first rides ( as passengers ) on Saturday. After paying off a few things we will be purchasing a Spyder RT next spring/summer.

I have noticed that some people spell the word RIDE as RYDE. Is that this forums culture? I do not want to step on any toes here, so please forgive any errors on my part.

I do not post much on any other forums but I will try to take an active part on this one when we get our RT.
 
Welcome Lorne!!
Ride or Ryde.... Doesn't matter. Lots of do it as a culture thing paying homage to our Spyders. Many of us feel that they are so different, it deserves a different spelling :)
