• 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.

Won't go into reverse, won't automatically downshift

Bike has been sitting a few months. GO for a ride and reverse doesn't work, then, after a few miles, it won't automatically downshift. Any thoughts?

2015 RT with 3000 miles. Going in for service next weekend.

Thanks
 
A wild guess

I do not know much about the SE transmissions, but could your oil level be a little low? I am also posting this to keep your issue at the top of the new post. Just sayin'............
 
My shop manual says they need to plug in to the BUDS system and check the reverse switch and/or the hydraulic control module. Apparently nothing you can do yourself without the test equipment.


Nice Starship in the photo by your Spyder!

oil

If it was a twin, I'd say check oil first... not sure whether this is as much an issue with the triple. Keep us posted?
 
Thanks

Thanks. No codes. I'll bring it into the shop Saturday.

Too rainy to ride to test more right now. Seattle in Spring!
