• 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.

I'm shipping my Spyder from Albuquerque to Mesa by a commercial hauler. In the owners manual there is picture of straps on front axel to winch Spyder onto flat bed trailer, need picture for hauler. Also need picture of straps through front tire. Trying not to get any damage from hauler.

There are pictures in your owner's manual that show the proper way to tie one down...
Give them some photocopies of that. :thumbup:
 
Here's some that I could grab; I hope that they help! :thumbup:
These are from a 2010 Manual; perhaps somebody has some from a later version...

Note valve stem

Make sure they note the position of each wheels valve stem and that they do not run the straps over the valve stem.:yikes:

I'd suggest that they put a soft piece of cloth between the strap and the paint on the rims.
