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.
VIBRATION

Yes, but you can usually tell if it's tires, they will vibrate most noticeably at a certain speed. Either by clutching in and letting the thing coast through that speed, or running at that speed in two different gears. If the vibration doesn't change, then it's probably something from the axles on out to the wheels. Worn bearings might also do the same thing.
On the tire balancing issue, has anyone run Dynabeads instead of wheel weights on their Spyder? I've used them on my streetbike off and on over the years but not the Spyder yet.
Are you sure what you feel; Is belt harmonics, and not balancing vibration.? :dontknow:

Have not run with the Dynabeads, but have used Ride-On without wheel weights for years with no balancing issues. We use the automotive formula of Ride-On in the Spyder tires. I am pretty sure Dynabeads would do the trick as well.
Since these are belt driven there is also belt harmonic issues at certain RPMs, which will likely vary for each Spyder.
