• 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.

Towing Spyder

Has anyone ever towed a Spyder behind a vehicle using a U-Haul car dolly? Or is a trailer a better choice? Pulling with a Lexus RX.
Headed to Spyderfest in April and thinking about all my options.
Thanks for any advise and see ya'll at Spyderfest 2016.
 
In a word... :shocked: Don't! nojoke


(Now for the Story... :D)
Leaving the rear wheel dragging with the belt in place, will probably do lots of harm to the transmission. It would be spinning, without the benefit of proper lubrication.
Taking the belt off and on pretty much makes the entire process a major pain in the........ backside! :opps:
Dragging it backwards would most likely have the nosepiece of the bike in pieces... and the windshield would need removing because they're just not designed to be dragged that way...

Ride the bike to Springfield; you'll be glad that you did!

YA , NO , NEVER EVER, EVER TOW A SPYDER:mad::banghead::lecturef_smilie:. Get someone to ride it or put it on a trailer. The towing of a spyder will cost UNTOLD DOLLARS WORTH OF DAMAGE, NOT WORTH IT. Do it correctly and save yourself the hassle , greif, and expense.
