• 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.

Was price better down there?

Hope you have a safe trip take your time getting used to it on your way home especially the cornering at first it is very different than a regular motorcycle. But just stick with it and enjoy, the more you ride it the more you will like it. Are you getting a new or a used one?

Hi Marc and Kay! Welcome to the group! I'm relatively new to the group, too! I have just over 1000 miles on my 2016 RT-S and am enjoying it more and more every day! I live in IL but my cousin lives in Burlington MN. I try and get up there as often as I can. Maybe we can hook up some time next season.......

Welcome!! I just joined today also. I live in Eagan and I will pick up my bike in Alabama on the 25th. I am hoping for decent weather for the ride home!!


PapaHotel ...................... your new Spyder is not in Alabama, it is in Arkansas, if you go to Alabama you will have a long walk to my house in Arkansas. :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

:welcome: and :congrats: on your new :spyder2:. The MN people are a great group to ride with. They do some great rides all over the State. :yes:
 
Price better down south?

Well yes and no. You have to be looking for a time before one smacks you with "I gotta by this." This is what made me willing to purchase long distance. I bought this machine because it is a tremendous value, however I missed one in Wisconsin that was as good of a value, but I delayed too long. This particular machine has more miles than some, but the current owner added so much value, I consider it a blessing to be the one first in line on this bike. You have to do a lot of comparing comparing model, equipment, mileage and price. I feel pretty blessed with this purchase.

Congrats on purchasing Joes RT. Joe is a great guy and maintains his Spyders, so you did well picking up his.
Look forward to riding with you.
