• 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.

    Excellent Gwolf, thank you! Sarah

    Finally got my Spyder!

    I think I may be looking at a better sway bar for my F3S, too. My upgraded Ryker feels like it's glued to the road, but the F3 sort of feels like it unhinges in the middle of a curve. I'm ticked with the cat delete, sounds just right with the stock muffler. Sarah

    Rear seat won't unlatch! Any pics of the latch/latch location? Sure would appreciate any help!?!

    Rollie, If it's like my F3S the latch is in the right hand side of the seat in the corner nearest the tail light. Can you get a knee or strong elbow on the seat and push down on that area while you turn the key? Sarah

    Are there any Definitive Sway Bar Upgrade Outcomes available for the Ryker (Rally's specifically)?

    That makes perfect sense, @nightfalcon. Mods have to suit your priorities. Keep us posted. Sarah

    Passenger foot pegs won’t stay vertical - any suggestions to keep them up?

    ^^Just a follow up on the shims mentioned above, we happened to have some in the spare washer bin, so I gave them a whirl. After 30 miles, including our bumpy gravel driveway, they haven't budged. We'll see how it goes over time. I added a shim to one side of each peg, so I can add the others if...

    Looking to install Cameras - where can I find a wire that comes on with the key on?

    And if it's like my F3, look under the left side access panel, the wires are tagged "customer accessory" You may have to take off the panel below it to get them out of the bundle, mine were zipped tied tight. Sarah

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I took the OEM belt tensioner off the F3S. Per the parts diagrams it looks like the factory started installing them in '19. I rode about 30 miles at varying speeds, got up to 85 for a stretch a couple of times and never felt any troublesome vibration. I think I'll be fine without it. One...

    What antifreeze are you using in your Ryker Sport Ace 900?

    Good job! Yep, I've got toilet paper rolls stashed in the house, in the garage... I keep my tools in the frunk and drop my wrenches into an old sock that I can use as a shop rag. The shortened toilet paper roll pushes over it just like a napkin ring, everything stays tidy and the ring keeps...

    What antifreeze are you using in your Ryker Sport Ace 900?

    If it just needs a little bit you might consider a shot of distilled water to bring it up to the line. Sarah

    Are you happy with your aftermarket CAR tires?

    There are already complaints about the rear tire on the Canyon having too little grip. It'll be interesting to see what develops. Sarah

    New Coolant will not circulate after refill, completing successful flush and change - anyone else? Any ideas on what might be causing it?

    Yep, I'll do my best to remember that. Thanks again for posting your experience. Sarah

    New Coolant will not circulate after refill, completing successful flush and change - anyone else? Any ideas on what might be causing it?

    Ugh! I was thinking I might go the route John mentioned: "The BMW K1200LT was notorious for getting a big bubble of air trapped if you filled it too fast. The best defense is to know the capacity of the system and measure that amount out first before you start filling. If it all goes in with...
