• 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.

Orange Screen of Misery - Gulf Shores Powersports To The Rescue!

My wife and I hare biking from Las Vegas to Cape Canaveral where we will pick up a cruise boat for a 7 night cruise south. Been on the road for 8 days and the RT's have been behaving quite well. At least until yesterday when my bike flashed the orange screen of misery. While I did not throw a code, a got a message that there was a parking break fault. The parking brake failed to engage while stopping at a filling station. I talked to Cpt. Jam on Spyderlovers and got the lowdown that the parking brake cable probably came off the front pulley. he gave me explicit directions on how to fix it. But, given the rainy cold weather I was in no mood to undertake the repair.

I contacted Gulf Shores Powersports in Gulf Shores AL and they said to bring the bike in first thing in the mormong. I did. They were courteous; listened to my plight; and got to work. In an hour everything was right again. They are quite a large powersports retailer; but took the time to help when it would have been simple to say they were too busy and dismiss me since I am not likely a long term customer. I would if I could be their long term customer since these guys provided first class service.:bowdown::yes::clap:
 
Glad to hear that they got you guys up and running quickly! :clap::2thumbs:
And DOUBLY glad to hear some good news about the dealer network... nojoke
 
Good to know where some of the "safe haven" dealers are. That orange screen can throw the Kaibaash on any kind of trip. :(
 
Good to know..!!

that there are still good ones out there ready to jump in and lend a hand to the traveler...glad it was minor and you are back on track...enjoy the cruise..!! :clap:
 
Gulf Shores Power Sports is where I take my Spyder for all maintenance. They are about 50 miles from me and I gladly make the ride to them.
