• 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.

    What year RT or F3 rear shock will fit my '15 RS

    Autozone should have a spring compressor for rent, if not I will buy one. Price of the tool probably is at what they charge to do it or less.

    What year RT or F3 rear shock will fit my '15 RS

    Thank you. I think I will try it to do it myself. It does seem like it’s not too hard but just have to be careful when compressing the spring.

    What year RT or F3 rear shock will fit my '15 RS

    Thank you. I must have looked at only place online that was out… So I would just get the shock itself and have like a 4x4 shop replace it, then put it back on the Spyder? I wonder how much they charge to swap out a shock?

    What year RT or F3 rear shock will fit my '15 RS

    Rear shock on my '15 RS is shot. What year RT or F3 rear shock would fit? I had bad experience with Elka and I think it’s too late to spend too much on the RS also, and I can’t find a shock for the RS any more. I would be looking to buy a new unit or fresh take offs. Thank you in advance!

    What year RT rear shock will fit my RS?

    Elka responded by what sounded like to me, “turn the adjustment ring stupid”. I ordered with MY spec so I don’t have have to deal with what I don’t know much about. So it’s the strut that wears out as time goes, correct? May be I can get the strut and have a 4x4 shop install it.

    What year RT rear shock will fit my RS?

    My rear shock on my '15 RS need to be replaced and I was wondering what year RT shock would fit my RS? I like the RS over an RT or F3, so I’m trying to hold on to it as long as possible, but it is 10 years old, although it only has 18k on it, and it's running great; but my experience with two...

    Does anyone still make a Luggage rack for RS Spyders?

    I really hope that I like next edition of Spyder, whether it be an updated F3 or something new, just so I don’t have to deal with stuff no longer available for the RS. I just don’t like the current models.

    Does anyone still make a Luggage rack for RS Spyders?

    Does anyone still make a luggage rack for RS Spyders? There used to be an aftermarket rack that slid into a rectangular frame made by a sponsor here, but it’s been so long… Thank you in advance.

    Do you change the way you ride with a trailer attached? For safety??

    Thank you all for input. I was mostly concerned about handling characteristics. By the way, how much weight do you think these hitches can hold? I was thinking about making a golf club bag holder to screw on in place of the ball when I’m not pulling a trailer

    Do you change the way you ride with a trailer attached? For safety??

    I was wondering if having a trailer attached to your Spyder forces you to change way you ride, for safety? Like when I have a passenger, I feel like I have to turn much slower than I normally do.

    What Trailer hitch and wiring harness are you using for your RS Spyder?

    Was it BRP or generic cable that you used? Oh, you already mentioned it was from eBay and I think I saw one, but I will have to look under the seat and see what the socket looks like. Thank you thank you.

    What Trailer hitch and wiring harness are you using for your RS Spyder?

    Was it 4 pins for harness? Do you remember? If you can post or dm the source for harness and hitch, that would be great.

    What Trailer hitch and wiring harness are you using for your RS Spyder?

    Hello folks. I’m looking to buy a Freedom Trailer for an RS, and I was wondering which hitch people been using? Price ranges from $75 -$588 for BRP's model for an ST, which I would think will fit an RS. BRP's version comes with a harness, but I don’t know if it’s worth buying a 10 year old ‘new’...

    At what RPM do you shift on a 988 RSS for mileage

    2015 RSS SE5 about 38 mpg on cruise at 76mph, 22 mpg on surface street. 180 miles a tank or 100 miles. I shift at 5000rpm plus when Spyder just starts to come alive and with disconnect air pipe from other side where air filter is, it accelerates little bit better with more growl of air intake noise.
