• 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.

Starting problems

The last 2 times out I have had problems starting my spyder. When I start it in the bike shed no problems. After riding it, today about 3 miles I stopped turned it off came back after about 5 minutes. Nothing when I push the starter button. No noise of any kind. Let it sit for a few minutes and will eventually start. Yesterday same problem twice after a 15 mile ride both times. The last time I cleaned the battery posts and snugged the cables down tight it still took probably 5 minutes sitting there before it would start. All the lights and the control panel works. I have had the control panel to reset 3-4 times in the last month...battery going? Nothing new added since August. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry to here this, did you put STAR washers on the Batt bolts ???... also do you keep it on a Batt " MAINTAINER " the RT's have a parasitic batt. drain and seem to do a lot better if kept on a Maintainer .... I have an 11 RSS with original Batt and it starts and runs fine ....... also check all your GROUNDS for tight .... Merry Christmas ... Mike :thumbup:
