Several owners have assured you of the same thing.
Now you have some choices to make.

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.
Popping & misfiring normal?

Many new motorcycle have popping and snapping noises under deceleration. This is normal because of the extremely lean fuel maps that are required by the enviro crowd. Once you change the exhaust it increases the lean running of the bike, plus the louder exhaust highlights this condition just because the exhaust pipe is louder.
The Spyder has a two stage exhaust system. The catalytic converter is also a noise silencer/suppressor, the pipe at the end is the second stage of the sound deadening of the system. If there is a leak at the joint between where the 2 bros connects with the exhaust pipe, that will also cause additions noises. Annoying, but not dangerous to the health of the bike.
The fueling system of the bike will compensate for the change in the pipe within certain limitations, but a PC V or other fueling devices will override the factory computer settings and set the fueling to whatever you program into it.
