• 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.

Seal Floorboards

I am very interested in the seal floorboards for my new RTS se. I have some concerns about sending over $500 especially through PayPal. There is no phone contact information and my email of yesterday has not been answered. I understand this is an individual who makes them rather than a large company but how do I have my questions answered and how do I know the product will be sent? Is there contact information I am missing. I hate to be skeptical but it is a lot of money and I have not heard the best things about PayPal security
 
John is in here and I'm sure that he can answer any and all of your questions. They are valid concerns and it's best to ask and have your fears allayed; rather than gumble around and not learn the truth... :thumbup:

I don't have a pair of his 'boards; I've got ISCIs on my RT... But his would certainly be my second choice! :thumbup:

John?? ARE YOU OUT THERE????? :shocked:
 
floorboards

I had them installed on our 2011 RT Limited and they are the best thing we have done to it. I was having a problem with my lower back but now that I can put my feet flat it has gone away. They are made very heavy and look good on there also. The best part is dealing with John, he does everything to help you out great person I'm sure he will be getting with you, he watches all these threads. You will like them and easy to install.
 
John is probably on his way home from Spyderfest. I'm sure he will get back to you. I will say, if he, or anyone else wasn't reputable, they would not last a week on this forum. nojoke

As of monday he was headed towards North Carolina, and its a long ride back to Oregon! Send him a PM, he will respond.
 
I bought these from John last summer. He handle the transaction very promptly and there were no issues using Paypal for the transaction. I have no regrets getting this product. They are everything John said they would be.
 
I've had mine for about 6 months and they are great. John answered all my questions before and after the sale and he was prompt with his shipment.

I don't think you can do wrong with him. :thumbup:
 
I just had John ship a set of floorboards for my 09 RS to Canada. Because he was not set up to accept Paypal in Canada I sent him a money order. The floorboards showed up in good time. I hhave installed them last weekend and I absolutely love them. Now if only it would quit raining so I could " Ride in Comfort".
 
Sealfloorboards is an honest vendor. It sounds like he is in transit from Spyderfest.

I purchased a set from him last season. I had delivery to AK in less than a week. They are a great product, easy to install, and worth the money. Hang in there. You will not be disappointed.
 
I just picked up my Spyder RT Limited yesterday at the dealer, the first thing I did was to install the Seal Floorboards that I had purchased from John, took me about 45 minutes to install, I bought the floorboards a month before I got the Spyder, I can tell you that dealing with John was great, you do not have anything to worry about, as Trickie Dick said he will be heading back from Spyderfest, a 2000 mile plus trip, buy the floorboards, they are Fantastic!

I got the last set he had at Spyderfest. It took less than a mile to get comfortable with them. He's a great guy and you will not be disappointed.
 
I am having lunch with John tomorrow in Durham, NC as he extends his Spyderfest trip - if you don't hear from him I'll mention it to him. I don't have the floorboards but everyone I know that does LOVES them!
 
John it First Rate - and lives within 10 miles of my home. I've known him since he started Seal… I wouldn't hesitate to deal with him.
 
Thanks for the reply

I am anxious to order and get the floorboards installed-I am coming from a scooter!! I sent 2 emails and private message, but the far no reply. Soon I hope
 
I got the PUP boards. This version allowed me to use my existing Kewlmetal highway pegs. The boards were a huge improvement from the stock footpegs. Very comfortable. John is a site sponser and is very helpfull. Normally he is easy to contact and will quickly return emails, but it looks like he still in Spyderfest traveling mode.

He did reply

He replied to my private message. I placed the order, but the site is saying I will receive it in 2-3 weeks. John said he can ship in 2-3 days. Hopefully his estimate is correct, and I can have then sooner.
Anyway, thanks to all who replied. I always liked this board when I had my 2010 RT a bit ago. I sold it, and hope al lot the kinks are worked out of the 2012. I suppose time will tell.
The floorboards should make the ride much more comfortable for me. i always liked the laid back "scooter" position. I had an RS prior to the firs RT, and could never get it set up the right way for me, though I know many people love the more aggressive riding position.
 
John Is The Man

I had John put some flat ones on at Spyderfest and they absolutely saved my feet and knees on the trip home. John is awesome. Here is his number 541-908-4602. He will take good care of you. NavyChiefEd

Greetings!

John happens to be a very close, personal friend of mine and he is as trustworthy as they come - as is the product he sells.

I, too, had a 2010 RT (with the floorboards, which I loved) but unfortunately it's computer )and related technology) was either made (1) on a late Friday afternoon by people who had their heads into what they were going to be doing that weekend or (2) on Monday by someone who was horribly hungover from an excess of partying over theweekend! I will never again buy a product/vehicle in its prototype first year of production!!! However, last Saturday, I picked up my band new 2012 Lava Bronze (rootbeer) RT Limited. I've put on less than 200 miles since then but I can tell that alot of the kinks have been worked out. Too soon to tell about the computers, but alot of the little irritants are gone: the self-cancelling turn signals actually self-cancel...when you need to manually turn off the turn signal, you can do it without causing it to start blinking for the other direction...the seat appears to have been improved upon (even though I was perfectly happy with the 2010 version), it's very cushy and conforms to my tush very nicely...the ride is much smoother (the new shocks are awesome!)...and that tiny little windshield actually gives you as much wind protection as the larger 2010 one did. Overall, I'm very, very satisfied so far and am looking forward to discovering other improvements over the 2010 model.

Take care, my friend!

Michael
