• 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 am happy spyder rider, going to North Carolina Blue Ridge Mountain, Tenensse Devils Triangle and for 2nd time Dragons Tail nexte mont, Happy for 9 days on the road.
 
Inflate your tires above BRP specs, stiffen the front shocks to max, lower the windshield to max, ryde max 55-60 mph (no burn-outs)...for everything else must be a problem with your right wrist. :opps:

Sounds like you are saying to take all the fun out of ryding my Spyder. :D

I only checked my mileage one time. I know when I hit 3 bars on the fuel gauge, it is time to start thinking about hitting a gas station. I don't need to know anything more than that. :thumbup:
