• 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.

Rivco peg mounts/forward pegs

I just installed the Rivco peg mounts. It took me till halftime to install ;) (radio) but was pretty easy. Solid, well made.

The feet position moves out about 6-7 inches and forward about 16 inches.

Recommended. (mine is an 08)

Early mount on the left, longer bolt with no nut is for tilt adjustment.

I've got the Rivco pegs as well and if you want to add the Rivco Floorboards, its also an easy install. I kept the stock shift lever, instead of changing it out with the heel toe shifter that comes with the floorboards.
 
Any drilling?
Or use existing hardware??
No drilling at all. three bolts to remove. two have to come out with a small magnet, but it was quite easy. the only thing that slowed me down was getting up and down from the floor. my body is so buggered up that I look like a toddler trying to stand for the first time, and I frequently take a break before I sit up... lol

You only need a couple of 9/16 box wrenches, a couple of 15mm's, that magnet (I used one on the back end of a scribe pen), and a 17mm.

Its a good plan and kit.
 
I look like a toddler trying to stand for the first time.

This is why I went with 3 wheels instead of going back to 2. I can't pick myself up and how would I look picking myself and bike up at a stoplight?:roflblack::roflblack:

and THHAT is why I got the spyder, too. I did let the goldwing take a nap once, and was able to employ the butt first technique to right it, but I paid for it...

both hands planted on the floor, butt in the air... it aint pretty, and I make sure there arent any rubber bands around, fearing a shot in the butt by the nearest "helper".
 
No Drilling easy on and well worth the cost I have them in stock.
They come with everything you need except tools this is the Rivco
setup on my Spyder as you can see there are rider and passenger
floorboards and rider road pegs, however the pegs no the
Rivco road peg mounts are Kuryakyn. This setup plus the handle bar
risers make this a very upright comfortable ride much like the ST or RT
they are made for all year models of GS/RS Spyders
The foot brake extension and pedal are ISCI and I also stock them.

Reviving an old post . . . . . A question for RDWII and/or MotorcycleDave . . . . . .

Removing the left and right forward bolts was a piece of cake. Replacing the left one so-so, not hard.

But how in the 'Blue Suzy' did you get the right 80mm bolt back in ? Instructions start on the left side.
then go to the right. Should be other way around. I've even removed the left side mount
an still not managed it. From the left you can see where the bolt goes, but getting the bolt back
between the frame and bottom of the engine from the right or left has got me stopped.

And you're right, getting up and down off the floor is the hardest part of the process.

Any tips ?

Joe
