• 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.

Winter is officially over

...Palm Springs hopes to make it her permanent home.

Well no wonder it's so hot out there! :shocked: :2thumbs:
 
Yes, things are heating up in the desert and my Spyder isn't liking it very much. Yesterday I was throwing codes related to heat if this is a sign of what my summer is going to be like I'm won't be very happy
There is something wrong. I have ridden in stop and go traffic in the hundred and teens and the bike got hot but never went limp or threw a code. You should check that out because heat plus an unreliable bike is not going to be fun.

The codes it showed were P0127 and P0217 one is air intake temp too hot and the other is coolant is too hot. I am going to check the coolant level today. I rode yesterday early and didn't have any problems. A friend had this problem quite frequently here last year on her 2011 but I never had any problems on my old 2010. The temp gauge never went beyond one tick above the middle which is where it normally is.

Sounds like a fuel mix problem. Fuel mix is a pre set, and is limited in range of automatic adjustment by a pre determined % value(adds more fuel as it senses heat - helps cool the engine). If that's what it is? It confirms my hesitation to change the air filter system to something that breathes easier in our heat. That would even lean it out more.

Please let us know what you find out.
