• 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.

    I've been Riding with two nuts! Does the wheel rotation tend to undo a lug nut if it's loose?

    I still cannot understand how wheel rotation could loosen lug nuts in any application with multiple lugs per wheel. My Cobra has knock-off wheels, where a single threaded spinner retains the wheel, and those are LH thread on the right side of the car, so in the event a spinner ear is hit by...

    What is your opinion on the plastic oil pump gears?

    I had a couple of those 2.8's. The timing set was true gears, not a chain. The nylon gear teeth held up pretty well in those. The chain applications were a bit harder on the nylon sprocket teeth. Many of those broke up into pieces after years of service.

    Totally bonkers 'Miles to empty' on 2020+ Spyder - can it be fixed?

    That's 47+ mpg. How on earth are you getting that mileage??? :eek:

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I've done a lot of work in that area, at Davis Besse nuclear plant. It's really nice there in summer, all 3 weeks of it. :eek:🥶🥶🥶

    Can BUDS (or anything) change the Throttle effort on a Spyder?

    I considered Monster's service. It can improve performance, but still won't allow you to tweak the throttle response to your liking, or to adjust for future mods. The PV4 also provides for lots of monitoring and troubleshooting aids in case of a problem.

    Thoughts on my first SS1000 with the Spyder

    I'm in your wife's camp. My idea of camping is my Monaco Dynasty motorcoach. My wife and I are planning a cross-country coach trip next summer. We'll be taking the Spyder and one car along in my trailer, and we hope to check out some great roads along the way, but I do enjoy a hot shower and a...

    Should I roll off the Throttle when upshifting, or maintain the position? What are the best RPM's?

    My tuned 1330 pulls well up to 8,000 rpm before it starts falling off up to the limiter.

    Can BUDS (or anything) change the Throttle effort on a Spyder?

    You can also modify the throttle response with a tuner. As a bonus, you can get better performance, and tune for modifications. I have a DynoJet PV4, and I modified the throttle to reduce the rotation needed for full throttle. I have some issues with wrist flexibility, and found it difficult to...

    Should I roll off the Throttle when upshifting, or maintain the position? What are the best RPM's?

    My main goal is not to load the engine below 3000 rpm. The 1330 seems most comfortable cruising between 3000-6000 rpm, which covers typical highway cruise speeds.

    My Uncle was hurt in this 2026 RTL Crash!

    THIS is absolutely good advice. He could have injuries that cause lifetime pain. The bike damage is the small end of this, and a wrecked bike will lose a huge amount of resale value.
