• 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.

    Spyder Went Crazy

    Or you could move down to Florida, the only salt here is in the ocean, not on the road, but it's pretty warm though, some 74 degrees today, you wouldn't like it! Sorry, I couldn't resist rubbing it in. Just makes me shiver every time I see the snowbirds come down with their cars covered in white...

    Tires...again!

    Another Choice G Force Sport by B.F. Goodrich. Bought it at tire Kingdom 14,600 miles ago. Still going strong. Like it very much, great in the rain! Should last at least 25-30k miles. :2thumbs:

    Show us the $$$

    :agree: Owner of a '08 RS for 38 months tomorrow. I have talked to lots of people over the last 3 years and I know I'm responsible for several sales. I just want BRP to continue improving our ride and keep monitoring this blog. Oh yeah and offer a Big-Boy :spyder2: for 2013, (more space for...

    Proper tie down method

    All very good recommendations (through the front wheels, AND facing forward). I have a tow hitch on my :ani29: as well. The hole on the back of the hitch provide excellent places to hook the straps to. I've trailered my '08 on 5 (five) 1,000+ miles roundtrips and many more smaller trips and...

    Should I jump on it? In need of advice.

    I've had a 2008 RS SM-5 for over 3 years. I live in Florida and I had the heat shield installed just last year at Spyderfest . Oh yeah, I also wear tennis shoes all the time. The heat is not unbearable. You'll be able to ride the two hours home no problem. Plus you can always take a break...

    Heat

    My dealer replaced mine with the Honda ones I brought them, no issue. Then again they also change my oil using the Mobil 1 High Mileage 10-40 I bring in. It's nice to have a good dealer that will work with you.

    Starke Bikefest

    Thank You Carmen and I really had a great time yesterday! Very nice group of folks, it was nice meeting everyone. At a total of 229 miles round trip it was the longest ride we have ever taken on the :ani29: in the 3 years that we've owned it. I especially want to thank everyone for showing...

    Starke Bikefest

    I'm trying to make this ride, but now I'm confused. :( We'll be coming from Inverness, I can go 44 to Wildwood, or 200 to Ocala to 75. Can someone tell me the meeting places again (and times). Steak and Ale in Wildwood at 8:30 or somewhere in Micanopy at 10:00? :yikes: Would appreciate a...
