• 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.

what to replace analog gauge with

For me I would go with a Digital Voltmeter. Easy install and it monitors your battery condition as you travel. This is especially useful information if you are running heated gear or auxilary lights when riding at low rpm's (Battery does not receive a charge when rpms are less than 4000...don't know about the 2014's.)

Of course if you want a variety of information you can go with Dakota Instruments GPS-Powered Compass, Altimeter and Ambient Air Temp Gauge that retails for $279.00 or so. http://www.dakotadigital.com/index....ct_id=953/category_id=-1/mode=prod/prd953.htm

The 2" round gauges fit your pods so any auto store should have what you need. You can spend anywhere from $20.00 to $150.00 for a voltmeter gauge so shop around. Marine gauges tend to be more weather resistant but I used a cheapo from E Gauges, sealed it with clear silicon, and never had a problem when it got doused numerous times with water.

Good luck with your search.

Replace fuel guage with USB

I replaced my analog fuel gauge with a duel USB port for charging my phone etc.. Now the question is what do I replace the temp. Gauge with. Any suggestions with were to find are are appreciated

Can you please send me where you got the USB connection I'm looking to do the same to my Spyder. I saw a guy that put a 12 volt plug like the one in the trunk in place of temp guage

I have seen a satellite compass for motorcycles for $89 but I can't remember where. No issues with metal interference.
