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.
Spyder origins?? Or The Ultimate?? Just Go For It!

Wouldn't let me watch it, something said confirm your identity with a selfie video. l don't have Facebook, that's probably why...
It worked fine for me, and I don't have anything 'facebook' at all!!
However, that's dodgy, and not anything facebook that I've heard of before, so I'd guess that either you've got some malware on your device, or there's something else going wrong/been hacked/intercepted on your end. It might be worth getting that checked ASAP?!

l deleted, cleared all cache, cleared history, did a soft reset, the video loaded after that and I agree. l went out of the page that it took me to right away, never heard of a reverse trike, off road riding isn't for me.It worked fine for me, and I don't have anything 'facebook' at all!!

Same for me. Love the sound of a 2-stroke!It worked fine for me, and I don't have anything 'facebook' at all!!
(But looks like they used a belt; wonder how long the belt and sprocket will last...)
You do know that if you're riding a Spyder, then you're already riding a Reverse Trike, don't you?!
Trike - 1 wheel up front, 2 wheels in the back = unstable & a pain to steer!
Reverse trike - 2 wheels up front, 1 wheel in the back = Spyder, stable as all get out, if you move your weight to counteract the centrifugal forces because it can't lean much; and will out-corner just about anything if ridden by a suitably skilled rider!

Yes, l know that. Sorry for sounding stupid, l'm going to stop replying to posts for a while and just read them...
There was definitely no 'sounding stupid' involved - we all occasionally have issues with the latest terminology, or even stuff that's been around for a while!! My grandson often hasta tell me what some of the different phrases he uses actually mean, and he says it's all old stuff, so I should know about it, but I'm clearly even older'n he thought!
I just thought you might not be aware that 'Reverse Trike' is one of the terms used to describe the Spyder's configuration.

Leaning more to this one:
Well I know I have been lingering around asking questions and you all have been very helpful. My Spyder is not 100% complete, might change a few things but all in all it’s running great and getting A LOT of attention. Big thanks to Daystar for the engineering genius !!!

2 Strokes RULE! It's chain drive, not belt. It could use a mid carrier sprocket. That is a long chain flopping around. I'm surprised it hasn't thrown it.

You had a 'Breako Maico'? I rode with a guy that had one. Awesome looking bike! I rode an MX 250 Can-Am, a 441 BSA (in the dirt!) and a Husky 390. Those were the days! I've got an EX 300 KTM now.
I rode with those guys too. The secret to keeping up or leading was huge cc's and knowing how to use them. My last and best ride was a 400 Yamerhammer mono shocker. Massive low end grunt and topend power with no end to it. It could really hurt you if and when you let it get out of control. Hospital trips were expensive. Getting your buddy's bike back to his garage and his wife to the hospital to be with him was not an uncommon chore. Now it's a Spyder for the pavement and Polaris for the dirt until the 250cc wheelchair arrives. LOL

Yes I had a Maico. Sold it to someone who wanted it more than me. All I have now is a 175 Montesa Texas Scrambler and a Can Am SxS Commander X. You still have a Can Am MX, I am impressed.
