• 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.

ok got to really test drive risers this morning ....WOW ....really got to put them through the pace it was great....evan was right and so was everybody else that said the spyder handles better .... there are a bunch of roads here in salem nh that are curvy that i know well enough to be able to really open it up ... well i left the house this morning coming to work and almost didnt want to stop riding ...it's like a whole new vehicle ... seating position, handling .... it connered so easy it took me a couple minutes to re-adjust my driving ...but i slapped the iphone into ipod mode put in my headphones and off i went ,,,,
to be honest i was apprehensive about this mod thought the factory must have got it right why change it if it isnt broken... well after driving it with risers it was broken it's like night and day ...these things should come standard on spyders ... i dont think when they were designed that brp thought that any of us would put the amount of milage on them that we have .... but never mind just the comfort level .... and they look cool ... but the increase handling ... dont feel like im driving a quad runner anymore when doing tight steering ...
again i feel that i am one of the bigger sceptics on this site and im not afraid to say it like it is or knock something even though it is just my opinion ...but if anyone has any thoughts about putting on risers then do it .... you will not be disappointed .....
thanks again magicman (evan):2thumbs::2thumbs::2thumbs::coffee:
and ill post some pics later ...

Glad to hear you like them. I have a set of 4" Black Anodized that should have been shipped March 11th and it is nice to hear from others that you made the right choice.
 
:2thumbs:I had my 4" risers anodized and installed them in february.(boy was it cold froze my n*** off) Finally took it for a ride yesterday (40 degrees) WOW what a difference. easyer to turn great on the back, can't wait to get more time in the saddle. P>S> They look great too.:cheers:
 
Thanks for the nice report......hope that'll be my next mod.
So now .......is the tall windshield next ??????? :yikes:
 
Tatt2r,
I just installed them today and took it for a spin. I went before I read your post and after I read your first one. When I was riding I noticed I was defintely taking faster corner. To me there was a big difference and I was saying to myself, "Why didn't Tatt2r" noticed this.
Hey I noticed you got the black...did you order the billets for and extra $10? How did you get the inside ones on, what adhesive did you use?

thanks
 
I'm ordering mine today

I'm going to order the 3" NMN risers since I have the BRP 1". I asked my husband to read your post to convince him that this is what I need. So I don't know how long it will take them to be shipped but I hope fast before he changes his mind abouti nstalling them.
 
Hey tatt2r,

I have to guess that your hands are now higher than your wind screen. :dontknow:

Was a great riding day in CT, how was NH?
