Yes, Facebook Group, Spyderlovers of Michigan has all the info.
Just got these front tires mounted and balanced, purchased from Walmart.
Best ride ever, makes the Kendas feel like off road tires.
Need to wait and see about wet performance.
Cost...
Hey there Firecat, I am in Paintsville Kentucky now, will get to Maggie Valley tomorrow early afternoon. I will keep my eyes open, hope to catch up with you tomorrow afternoon or evening.
Anyone riding Michigan to Maggie Valley for Spyder Adventures 2022?
Leaving Tuesday morning from Oakland County.
Send PM if you are interested in riding with a partner.

Details in Picture
Great information, thanx all. Looks like 3,000 min is a good rule to use.
Talking flat and level, light wind. I am jaded by 7 years of 998, not sure how to detect 1330 is lugging because it seems good all the way down to 2500.
Is steady 2500 RPM bad for engine?
ST owners,
I have some new in package parts from my previous 2013 STS, which never got installed. They are free to good home, just cost of shipping.
1) Back Tail Cover - Platinum, do not know...
PM me with your details and I'll get it in the mail Monday.
I was going to install Etrack on my trailer for hauling Red Zin, ordered straps. Got lazy when it came to mounting the Etrack, and changed my mind and went with chocks.
So I have (3) ratchet...
This is my experience with Bargeron Powersports, Jessup, GA ,
top notch team.

Closing out this thread, and forwarding some information that may be helpful to other 998 owners.
I was suspicious about this slippage because it only seemed to occur when shifting. Turns out...
Thank for the great explanation of the shift process, Billy.
The perceived slipping appears to happen after the shift while the hydraulic clutch is disengaging. There is a slight increase in rpm...
Well, curiouser and curiouser. Reading the service manual regarding SE5 operation, more puzzling information. There are several solenoid driven valves on the Hydraulic Control Module that manage...
Thank Ron and Mike.
Regarding oil, last change before slipping was at 42,000 miles, BRP syn blend. Slipping did not start until 3,000 miles after that change, 45,000 miles. I changed the oil...
2013 STS, 998 twin, 44,000 mostly fun miles
Lately noticing a slight rev after gear shift up and down; sort of oozes into new gear, used to snap into next gear. Feels like clutch is slipping.

I made risers from 2x4 and lifted the entire seat up 1.5 inches. Metal edges friction grip the frame, easy to put in and out. You can hardly tell the seat is up unless you really look close. Much...
STs are known for a slight tranny shudder/chatter on initial takeoff. Usually only first time takeoff. My 13 STS did this, and belt tensioner was hitting belt guard causing a slight click.
Look...
On vacation in southern GA, needed an oil change so went to Bargeron in Jesup. The tech team here really demonstrated technical proficiency, product knowledge, and the willingness to go a couple...
Surrounded by dealers, 70 - 100 miles. Platinum, gold, silver.

Anyone have a good experience and recommendation?Looking for a...
South Georgia, 78 degrees today. Rode down from MICHIGAN in October, stored Blaze in Georgia, came back last week until mid March. Several multiday trips planned, north GA, NC, SC, AL. Less money,...
I assume it is all stainless, or what is the finish?
I am interested, any idea on price?
Would you provide installation at a Spyder event?
Spencer, Check with Utopia, I purchased 2013 ST backrest from them about 4 years ago. Hopefully they still sell this item.
Installation is kind of involved, seat comes off, cover comes off seat,...
I believe the fuse is there to protect the wire from overheating. In home wiring, 14 gauge wire should have no greater than a 15 amp fuse, 12 gauge wire is 20 amp. I think 12 volt systems are the...
I cut it into pieces to get it out, installed JT air filter. Lotsa room there without the air management bloat.
So I finally bit the bullet and upgraded the side panels on my 2013 STS. This the kit that includes 4 new panels (2 right 2 left), with the air scoop design to increase flow and decrease heat.

Have the CalSci extra wide and tall. Holes were drilled correctly, install was quite easy.
Makes a big difference, no head buffeting. Hands still exposed, using heated gloves.
Been on many group rides over the past 3 years, all fun, some more than others. No news here, more riders means slower progress,
delays and greater possibilities of group segmentation and/or cage...
Went for service today at Raisin River, Monroe, Michigan; always good outcomes. Curtis and team are honest, fair, and most important, the work is quality.

Had exactly the same problem with STS, even though they are different engines. Problem was solved by removing the spring clamp and replacing with screw clamp.
The issue is probably getting access...
