• 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.

Where do you store your Spyder?

The Spyder is in my garage with the other bikes. The Camaro is outside for the first time. Ack.

Should I cover it to avoid wildlife, or is being in the garage sufficient?

I'm still going to explore other solutions since I want better for the Camaro. It's good it's not alive because it would be pretty annoyed right about now.
 
We have a 3 car garage. The cage is flanked by a Kendon trailer on one side, the other side (single stall) sits the Spyder and 4 motorcycles. The truck sits in the driveway. The bikes are in there all Tetris-like. Three in front, one beside ||| >-- . If you have room, a 10x10 shed is the minimum size that fits a Spyder.

I have a 10x12 shed to store my :spyder:. It works great. I even cut little windows in the shed for heat to escape after i park it. :ohyea::ohyea:
 
Mine stays in my new 12x16 toy garage, attached to the rear of the main garage. It's now insulated.

Usually in my basement, keeping warm beside the Woodstove. But this year in the cold garage that is in profile pic, as we are doing renos. Next year will be in the new garage under our addition.

I have two over size three car garages so in the winter it's in the back garage and in the summer it's in the house garage .

I'm reluctant to cover a bike (Or any other toy!) in a garage: the "creepy-crawlies", and other varmints; just LOVE those dark secluded spots, and will take up residence quickly! :shocked:

I was covering the bikes in the garage to keep the dust off, but I haven't had the covers on for a while. My bikes are dusty!! Ack. I'll have to clean them, no big deal.

We bought a half cover for the Spyder yesterday if we leave it out back for a few hours outside.
 
No matter where you decide to store your Spyder, keeping the animals away should be a top priority. They like to hide under the covers on the seat. Mice and other small rodents will set up home in the most obscure areas, store food, chew wires, etc. This intrusion and damage can occur in less than 24 hours.

JUST MY $.02

When we had our RV we put "Fresh Cab" pouches in it over the winter and saw no signs of rodents. After my wife opened the Spyder shed and saw a visitor scurry away, I put several bags in the shed and one under the Spyder and now we don't see any signs of rodents not even a pellet.
