• 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.

any one know where to find a replaceable lens dealer said not avil. must buy as a assy. 43.00 for all light&lens looked on web did not find any , lens only ------thanks for any info jpat
 
The dealer is correct. Maybe an individual has a lens for sale. When I broke mine, I bought a tail light at Walmart for about 15 bucks and notched the bottom out so the light would shine on the license plate. This was an idea from another member, but I don't recall who. The only adjustment I had to make was attaching the ground wire to the bike. Other than that, it has worked well for a couple years.
 
found lens

thanks for imput after a long serch found one at cruiser customizing 19.95 + shipping and a better lens thanks again jpat
 
Custom Dynamics has.......

a replacement lens that also is transparent and shows the tail light. They're an SL sponsor. Click on their banner ad on the Home page.
 
If you are talking about the license plate light, ESI or Custom Dynamics has what you need. See the SpyderLovers home page for these sponsors. When you replace the lens, put a dab of RTV silicone on the screw hole before you put on the lens and screw (you will need a new screw from the hardware store). Don't overtighten the screw. Let the silicone dry all night and you shouldn't have the problem again. If you want more security, put a couple of small dabs of silicone across the joint between the lens and the base. You can slit it with a razor blade for later lens removal.
 
No the dealership is not correct.
My lens fell off going down the road....I purchased another lens for $20 brand new online.
 
FYI..
Coulda got a two pack at walmart for two bucks. Mine fell off as well. Grind off the top corners n it fits perfect.
 
Looking for a whole new tail light / license plate light assembly. Mine fell off a month ago. Anybody got a spare for a GS, that I could buy ?
