• 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.

    Scored a 2023 RT today!

    Sounds good. Being outside the city a bit offers pretty much instant access to some curvy roads to get a decent feel.

    Fitting a Baja Ron Ultra Sway Bar - can I thread it thru the gap without removing the wheels?

    No problem for me either. You can see the old bar hanging down before I cut it. New ultimate bar went in no problem.

    I am outside Nashville in Lebanon. 30-40 minutes drive.

    Wish you were in Tennessee, I'd let you cruise mine. I wouldn't take long before you'd be spending that cash.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    It was a beautiful ride, unfortunately it was a quick turnaround since I needed to be back by 1:30 but the weather was absolutely perfect. I'd love to meet up next time so I will reach out before I head that way. Glasgow looks like a great town.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Taking a ride up to Glasgow Kentucky today, it sounds like a nice little town and I've never been.

    Is the Ultimate seat narrower at the front?

    Helibars do help, as does raising the floorboards. Being only 5'6" I did both to get mostly comfortable. Still thinking about a BRP comfort seat, $1200 if it doesn't help is a lot of gas money.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Changed the oil in my Spyder and Ryker. That's about it for the day other than errands.

    Worn seat - can anyone recommend a comfortable a/mkt replacement?

    Ultimate seats are great if you're built right. They are thicker and wider and use their own backrests. If you are tallish they work great, if you are smaller the back rest is uncomfortable. I'm 5'6" and 150lbs with a 29" inseam. They don't fit me at all. I use a Utopia backrest which in the...

    How difficult is it to replace the Windshield on a 2022 RT?

    It's easy, just need lock the windshield in the up position as Smitty42 described above. I have the Freedom windshield that I bought from LaMonster. I think you will like it. It does a good job of pushing the air away with the curve at the top and it's a good high quality shield. In the image I...

    Does anyone have actual measured data for the various OEM Handlebar options Pull back on 2024+ RT's?

    They were too far back and I couldn’t get them at a comfortable height either. They just felt weird.

    Does anyone have actual measured data for the various OEM Handlebar options Pull back on 2024+ RT's?

    I don't have the answer to your question, I'm sure someone will. But just to offer you something to think about, I'm 67 and 5'6" so pretty close to your size, and I bought, tried, and ultimately resold the bars you listed above, then purchased a set of Helibars. The adjustability and comfort...

    I want Spyder/Ryker/Canyon dealerships to succeed

    I'm a little further West than you, I'm in Lebanon TN, but like yo, I want to go visit. I have a list I want done that I can't do in my current condition. Rear shock, EBC pads and rotors, a brake flush, and car tires. I figure one day I will just make an appointment and ride out, spend the night...

    New Owner of a 2024 Sea to Sky.

    Very worth the investment. They made the bike truly comfortable.
