• 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.

    Not Full Disclosure, Sway Bar Install

    Which one is better is not my complaint. I bet they are both are fine. My complaint was the install of LMG links without consulting me. No one has the right to install something on any of my property without my consent.

    Not Full Disclosure, Sway Bar Install

    I was to be up to the Springfield, MO, area from Dallas on September 30. A few weeks earlier I called La Monster Garage for a Ba Ja Ron sway bar install and laser alignment. I reconfirmed by email the date, time, and a BJR sway bar install. It was confirmed by LMG. The sway bar does make a...

    My (son's) New Tiger 900 Rally Pro

    Good motorcycle. Before I bought the RTL, I had one for 22,000 miles of touring with a few hundred miles off road on the Trans Labrador Highway.

    Considering a Spyder - Can I Ask You Some Questions?

    Take the course anyway. You will learn/relearn. I did it, which included sidecar, and learned a few things. You’ll still have your MC endorsement.

    Rear tire mileage - How are you people getting 10,000 + miles on Kenda tires?

    New Kanine rear tire, not much if any difference. OEM rear 6,763. Kanine 7,404. OEM fronts 16,800 so far. Still 6/32 remain. I’ll go with the Vredesteins when I replace them.

    Anyone in Northern Texas area installing Car Tires on Spyders?

    Thanks. Houston isn't so far. I just don't like going there, but I have, and I may need to for tires.

    Annoyingly, my '21 RTL will only cancel Cruise by touching the brake pedal or downshifting - are there any other ways?

    Rolling the throttle on previous 2 wheel was very convenient. I wish my 2022 RT had that feature. I have adapted. Here I go complaining about the luxury of an electronic cruise. I rode many miles without cruise. Guess I need to appreciate what I have now.

    Anyone in Northern Texas area installing Car Tires on Spyders?

    Thank you Ron. I can take the fronts off, get new tires mounted, and I can reinstall. The rear is my main issue. I completely agree with the impact gun thong. They tend to over torque lugs nuts on automobiles also. Peter, thanks for the heads up. It sure sucks though. With all the vehicles and...

    Anyone in Northern Texas area installing Car Tires on Spyders?

    Is there any one in Northern Texas or Southern Oklahoma installing car tires on the rear? Not just mounting them on the rim, but removing & installing them on the Spyder (an RT)? I’m hoping to find an installer closer to North Dallas than Eastern Tennessee.

    Sunday morning thinking out loud - on my Third Spyder, making the move from Two Wheels was a good choice for me!

    After 300,000 miles in 15 years on 2 wheels, I am not sorry to have transitioned to 3.

    Have any of you added an Aux Tank to a 2020+ RT?

    Aux Tank Up Date: I just returned from a 2600 mile trip to Colorado and New Mexico. 106°F on the return. Everything worked fine until on the way home at the 106°F temps, when I guess I had a vapor lock in the Aux line. Only half of the aux tank made it to the main tank. By morning, all of the...

    Have any of you added an Aux Tank to a 2020+ RT?

    I did do what I call a "proto type" test. I filled both tanks as full as I could get them, then rode 250 miles as fast as the speed limit would allow, some 75mph. I visited friends, then returned the 250 miles after refilling the tanks. No problems. I will be adding a shut off valve so that I...

    Rear tire mileage - How are you people getting 10,000 + miles on Kenda tires?

    I have decided I’ll find a way to change to a car tire. I have no way to take the rear tire off. Probably could find a place to mount it. I wouldn’t be near as upset if the labor cost in replacing the rear tire wasn’t so high. The OEM on my 2wheel motorcycle, very heavily loaded, interstate...
