• 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.

    What did you do to/with your Spyder today?

    Day three was removing the Helibars, the Ultimate heated passenger backrest pad, and cleaning the K&N filter and Centramatics/EBC rotors. Pretty much done other than Oil/filter/exhaust spring.

    Thinking about trading my 2012 RT for a 2025 Ryker Rally - Any problems or issues with Rykers?

    I'm also pondering this. Well... Likely will make the switch come Spring.

    What did you do to/with your Spyder today?

    Day two involved removing: license plate flag mount, Doormate garage door opener, battery monitor, handguards, Fobo 2 TPMS caps, K&N air filter, and RLS cat delete. I didn't quite have enough strength to both pull back the upper spring and push into place. I'll get assistance from my son to do...

    What did you do to/with your Spyder today?

    Today I started the process of readying my Spyder for a Spring time sale. I began removing some add on accessories to list for sale once the Spyder sells. Todays removals were: Russell Day Long heated seat, front EBC rotors, Centramatic balancers, aux fog lights, Pedal Commander, Garmin Zumo XT2...

    Thoughts on ever-changing vehicle needs and wants

    My wife & I ordered a 2026 Dodge Durango RT 392 back on April 20th. It arrived exactly 16 weeks later and we picked it up 3 days after that. I'm 69 and my wife is 65, and we just basically wanted a burly SUV toy. After delivery, I installed both a cold air intake and an AWE cat back exhaust...

    30 degrees outside, it may be time to call it a season...

    Yup... 26° here and lots of frost. I likely will take my annual end of year ride to Poopy's next week (listening to Christmas music :)) and do the end of year maintenance. I'll likely be using storage time to prep the RT S2S for a Spring sale. Due to lack of desire, I think my long distance...

    I'm thinking about down sizing... - from my 2022 RT S2S to a 2026 Ryker Rally.

    Stopped by a local dealer today to put my azz into the seats of both the Sport and Rally. I could feel the go-kart feeling of the Sport as it would be a hoot on the back roads, but the Rally felt the best to me. At least I might have that figured out :)

    I'm thinking about down sizing... - from my 2022 RT S2S to a 2026 Ryker Rally.

    Yup... Pondering downsizing from my 2022 RT S2S to a 2026 Ryker Rally. In the Fall of 2024, I upsized from a 2019 F3S to my then new RT S2S. I found myself doing more touring and the S2S made sense. Now, I find myself losing interest in the long distance tours after 30+ years of doing so. I am...

    Went to a Ford Dealer today, and this followed me home...

    Kinda similar here. Back in April, I ordered a 2026 Dodge Durango RT 392. It arrived exactly 16 weeks later. Who doesn't need a 475hp-470 lb/ft TQ beast that sips premium fuel? :) Of course, I added an AWE cat back exhaust and an aFe Momentum GT cold air intake. It is a hoot to romp! :) :)

    I fitted my Baldwin Iron Works Cat Delete Kit. She said what…?

    I also have a 2022 RT S2S, and for many years (20+)/many bikes, I have dealt with Fuel Moto USA and Dyno Jet Power Vision products. I have a PV4 device for my Spyder, and they have built me multiple custom maps based on data logging I made while on rides. I have a custom map for best performance...

    Really like the Widow's on my RT S2S :)

    Did the Bears get some 'extra help' in their defeat of the Packers?

    Growing up I was always a Nitschke fan, but yup, Ditka always succeeded in whatever he did. RIP Iron Mike. On a side note, is Keenum hurt? If not, why is the other kid starting?

    Any electricians out there?

    Fully Automatic Spyder!

    Too rich for my blood, but I can see where it will fit a need for many.
