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.
why not a dual-sport on & off road Spyder ??

I think a three wheeled Spyder would be the worst thing to have off-road. You could be sure to hit everything in the way then. I'll stick to 4-wheelers and dirtbikes for off-road thank you. :doorag:
You sure got that right! I tried to ride one of the old Honda Big Red 3-wheelers off road once. I think I hit every mesquite tree in Coke County, Texas with one rear wheel or the other. Two wheels are plenty for me when it comes to off road. But I LOVE that picture. Just spells FUN in big black letters.

Belt Guard
I'm confused ... as SpyderCowboy (my other half) stated above ... we have nearly 2 miles of gravel to ride through just to get home, so we are worried about the belt. But, looking at the 2012 RT Limited, it appears to have a "belt guard" of some kind. However, looking at the pics of SpyderPops belt guard, it appears to protect the side of the belt closest to the tire (where the BRP guard only covers the outside of the belt. Is that correct?
Also ... any holes to drill in order to mount?

Yes, it goes on the tire side of the belt for more protection, and no drilling holes to install belt guard.

I ride mostly off road on my dual sport but bought the Spyder to enjoy rides with my wife. I have been off road twice with the Spyder (not intentionally) and it was the worst experience ever. Once was on a paved road where beach sand had covered the road and it just kept getting deeper until the Spyder said no more. All the cars around me had zero problems but not the Spyder. Another time was trying to pull into a campground that had a very slight uphill with fairly hard pack and the Spyder was all over the place. The Spyder at least in my opinion is pavement only period.
