• 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.

    TIME FOR UPGRADES on my 2024 RT-L - which of these do you recommend?

    I'm sitting at 9000 miles and the bike is at the dealer to determine the DESS key issue. I decide to let them do the 9000m maintenance, during which they found a leaking water pump! It's on order, 2 weeks. I'm 30 days over my 2 year warranty, I did not get the extended warranty, "My Bad". I've...

    Dead Spyder - any ideas on this?

    I do not remember the number, my bad. Just a pain to think about a new bike is undependable! My HD Road King has 138K on it, never had a unexplained issue. Also, never had HD turn me away on a trip. They work you in/out in a day or two, not tell you they give you an appointment 45 days down the...

    Rear tire options - any suggestions?

    My riding buddy has the Vredestien Quadtrac 5, 205/65R-15. So 205/60, 205/65, 215/60 all fit with no issues. Both General and Vredestien are good choices?

    Dead Spyder - any ideas on this?

    Ride a 2024 RT-L with 9000 miles on it. Went on a trip, 400 miles, and unloaded at the hotel. Came back out and it did not start. All the lights and dash came on, but nothing from the starter. Pushed it into a parking spot, tried it in the morning, and still nothing. Two days later, I returned...

    Rear tire options - any suggestions?

    The General Altimax RT45 is the upgraded RT43. Is there really much difference between the 205/60R15 and 215/60R15? What is the major difference between the Vredestien Quadtrac and the General Altimax RT? I'm driving a 2024 RT-L and my weight is 210 lbs.

    Apple CarPlay update - what is the secret to getting it working properly??

    Has anyone used Apple Car Play & inRoute navigation? My 2024 RT has ACP (all updates) and my iPhone has inRoute installed. InRoute is transferred from my iPhone to the screen with ACP.

    Has anyone used front wheel 'roll into' chocks on your trailer?

    @Jackhartjr - I looked at your E-track setup! I was looking to use E-track and the roll-in chock. No left/right movement, TBD on front tire/fender fit. My issue is the Aluma trailer has a metal deck to drill holes into for the E-track. I'll need to use metal backing to reduce the torque on the...

    Has anyone used front wheel 'roll into' chocks on your trailer?

    I have a Aluma Trailer that I haul my 2024 RTL. I'm think about installing roll into chocks for the front tires, this would better secure the front. Has anyone used roll into chocks?

    Russell Day Long saddles for '20+ RT's - they don't make a driver backrest!

    I have half moon on my BMW 1600, it sets very well. Best accessory I bought for the BMW, I run 250-350 day rides with noises. Ran to Texas-Calif back to Idaho and had no issues. I have bad back and shoulders, great saddle!

    Russell Day Long saddles for '20+ RT's - they don't make a driver backrest!

    Bought the Utopia backrest, now waiting for delivery. Will send just my saddle to RDL for custom, just leaving it vinyl.

    Russell Day Long saddles for '20+ RT's - they don't make a driver backrest!

    Peteoz - I'm looking at the Utopia backrest, same cost as 3rd party backrest. I'm really debating just having the driver saddle done my RDL and leaving it vinyl. I ride the BMW and only use the RTL when two up. So, you did vinyl with Sunbrella inserts?
