• 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.

    Has anyone ever opened a Paypal dispute?

    So .... 23 days after receiving the windshield, and 16 days after filing a dispute, I get a reply from Isotta. The sales manager apologized for the delay and inconvenience, but stated that after talking to the engineering department, a bag of hardware (grommets/washers/screws) should have been...

    What are your Phone Holder Preferences? Brand/style & placement?

    I still see my phone wiggle around on occasion on the Quad Lock mount with vibration dampener. I think the thought/idea is for the (3) silicone bags to absorb any vibrations before they get to the phone, where a solid mount might just take the jolts? Who knows...

    Is Running Diesel Oil in Your Spyder such a good idea?

    Are you talking about M1 4T motorcycle racing oil? If so, the back of the bottle states API SN and JASO MA/MA2. The link below is for Walmart, which shows the back of the bottle. That said, I'm going against my anti 5w40 oil use. I just bought (5) quarts of Amsoil 5w40 metric motorcycle oil to...

    Is Running Diesel Oil in Your Spyder such a good idea?

    If I missed that I apologize. It is not listed on their data sheet, nor shown on their API service label on the 1 gallon jug.

    Is Running Diesel Oil in Your Spyder such a good idea?

    Again, I have taken the time to read the specs. This comes directly from Shell Rotella .. chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://shop.sclubricants.com/pub/media/pds/shell/Shell-Rotella-T6-5W-40-datasheet.pdf And, yes there is a motorcycle picture on the front of the bottle...

    Interesting conversation at the gas pump - asked why I chose to ride a Spyder rather than 'a real motorcycle'?!

    Just ask a two wheeled passenger what they'd rather be riding on, a two wheeled motorcycle or three wheeled motorbyke. If they're totally honest, I bet most would answer 3 wheels :)

    Is Running Diesel Oil in Your Spyder such a good idea?

    Technically speaking, Shell Rotella T6 does not meet BRP required specs. BRP manual clearly states: Use a 5W40 4-stroke SAE synthetic engine oil meeting or exceeding the following lubricant industry specifications: API service classification SJ,SL, SM or SN. Always check the API service label...

    Is Running Diesel Oil in Your Spyder such a good idea?

    How about a thread that asks: Anyone have an oil related catastrophic engine failure? If so, brand and weight of oil?

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Kind of a thin line between thieves and vandals :(

    What are your Phone Holder Preferences? Brand/style & placement?

    I have used the Lamonster Phone Phang, Tackform, RAM Quick Grip XL, and currently the Quad Lock with anti vibration dampener. I found the Tackform very convenient with excellent grip, much better than the Phone Phang. The RAM Quick Grip XL felt the most secure. After switching to an iPhone, I...

    Tire search - what is everyone going to these days?

    Also remember that the speed ratings are for maximum sustained speeds while carrying the rated maximum load. A T rating on a Spyder will never be an issue...
