• 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 have had my spyder for a bout 3mos. now. worked perfectly great no problem. i now have 2400 miles on it. today went to start it and shift it out of gear but is stuck in 4th gear. the only way to get my gears to swith is to start going down the road fast and then sometime it will switch gears. but wil only go in 4th gear and 3rd. anyone know if any recalls . spent 17000 dollars and now already tore up. what the f#$% :cus::cus::cus::cus::cus::cus::cus::cus::cus::cus::cus::cus:!!!!!!
 
Sounds like the GPS (Gear Position Sensor) issue... you're dealer should replace it under warranty. BUT, just in case, check to make sure that all your relays (just behind the top left side of the hood) are inserted tightly. They can have a habit of working free.
 
mine is in the shop for the same thing gps sensor I have an sm5,and don't know how long it will be as my dealer is backed up.:( already miss her.

That would be frustrating. welcome
 
It sounds like a gear position sensor issue. Call your dealer and get it fixed. This is a warantee item and will not cost you a dime.

welcome
 
shift sensor shot on my bike. dealer ordered part back ordered, but received finally last week. Then it took some days to get an appt time.
told it would take 4 hours for it and some brake pads, but it was out in 2.

all covered by warranty. no more stuck tranny, no more squeaky brakes!:ohyea:

If they have the part and he knows what he is doing it should be no more that 2.5 hours, also make sure they do the coil ground as well.
