• 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.

    New Low Rate Financing for 2025 Spyders!

    That new Canyon RedRock purchase is looking pretty good right now? The 8.9% they have been offering is tough to swallow on something you don't need and tough to pull money out of the bank with the return we have been seeing!

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I looked into adding an aux tank and even purchased one for the RT, but we decided a Canyon is in the future, so I'll save the efforts for that machine. I have a Camel tank on my Super Adventure 1290R and it vaccumes from the main tank vent too. I've only had an issue one time where the...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I looked at the wiring diagram and parts fiche and didn't find any "EVAP Pressure Sensor" only the "Purge Solenoid", so I would assume the system is not monitoring pressure like modern OBD2 cars. Leave your gas cap loose and find out?

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Washed 7001 miles of bugs and road grime off? Wife and I rode the entire route 66 west to east, rounded the corner at the Mackinac bridge, and headed back west though the northern states. I accidentally routed our GPS to Lamonster Garage when we were headed to the hotel in Springfield, but...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Swapped on new EBC rotors and balanced the tires. That annoying shake in the left fender while braking is gone. Also replaced a little plastic skid plate that was cracked. I so hate the stupid plastic fasteners these things are held together with. I fought one for 20 mins trying to line it...

    Has anyone ever opened a Paypal dispute?

    Good luck to you. I hope you bank stands with you on the deal. I don't even have a debit card because I feel it's another layer of protection from a scammer being able to get into my bank account. With a CC, your money isn't already gone from your account, so the bank has a good reason to...

    Has anyone ever opened a Paypal dispute?

    When Marcus at M2 folded, Paypal was just acting like an AI mediator. There was zero participation from Marcus who was just dragging out the process because he had XX days to respond before it would move on to the next step. I called my CC issuer for advice. They told me to file a claim with...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I just ordered a set from Lamonster. We have a 6-10K mile trip coming up and that shaking is hard on all of the chassis components.

    Canyon top box Rant!

    I agree with ya! It's pretty rough swallowing the MSRP of the Redrock to get the KYBs and then toss the included luggage to get into some usable storage? We just did a prepack yesterday for a 23 day trip and found the storage on the wife's 2023 RTL, 177 liters of lockable storage, just about...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Agreed! I would never do one side for a client, but would consider doing one OEM rotor on my wife's, assuming it stopped straight afterward. $150 for a single OEM rotor or $260 for a pair of EBC's, no brainer there! Considered even mounting it up on the brake lathe to take runout and possibly...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Did you do both rotors or only the offending one? Nvm; I looked back and saw you got the set.

    Have you experienced any Road rage incidents?

    I've had cage drivers act out after making a clean pass (even if it wasn't technically legal) and try some crazy stuff. It's not hard when we have the hp advantage. Crank it up to 125mph for a few mins and if there are corners coming up, it's even easier to lose them! The main thing I think...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    We have been battling a front vibe issue while on the brake as well. It's the LF wheel because I can see the fender shaking only when on the brake. I took the rotor off and scuffed it in on the lathe with a flapper wheel with no change, hoping it was maybe some ceramic friction embedded into the...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Easy, but I do this work for a living and have all the trick tools? I was swapping on a new tire, so that made the shock r&r much easier.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Oil Change and swapped in the 600lb spring onto the rear Elka shock.
