• 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.

    At 8000 mls, the rear tyre could be ready for change. I have just fitted a new rear at 6,7750 mls, swapping OEM for a Vredstein 205/60/15. It feels ok and I hope for better mileage.

    Complete Newbie Experiences - 2021 RT Limited

    Hi John and welcome to a forum that is educational. I bought our Spyder RTL September last year and used it all winter. At first I thought I had made a very expensive mistake, but as the miles clocked up, so did my confidence. At around 1500 miles I knew I had made a good choice. 50 yrs on two...

    Took my Spyder out today, first time since tyre change (weather has been awful for over 2 weeks). Temp was around 40°F but managed 80 miles. New Vredestein Quattrac feels good! yahoo

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    This was my first change and I followed all I could on this site to carry the job out. I'm not new to bits of m/c mechanics, but I feel at 70, I tend to over think the job in hand.'. I taped mine, (from a video on this site) but a good tip, thanks.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Last week I changed the rear tyre on my Spyder, When removing the wheel we noticed no split pin on the axle and strangely only 1 hole drilled. We put it all back together and I ordered a Krikit and 36mm spanner and socket (I had to borrow them initially). I contacted the dealer 90 miles from me...

    Done - Rear Tire Replacement on my 2020 RT!

    I have the Big Blue and you cannot take the shock bolt out because the lift works on the shock as well. In spite of this, the belt walks off easily and the lift is very secure (it does take a bit of time to fit it correctly) but once it's in use, it's a great piece of kit and worth the money!

    Who has the factory adjustment data for a 2025 Spyder RT belt adjustment in mm?

    Having just changed the rear tyre on my 2023 RTL, this information is critical to my brain well being. Thank you all for the info you provide, nothing like this is available where I am.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    New tyre fitted today, a few checks still to do because I am a pessimist, and even though it's around 7 degrees here, it's time to play. Sorry to use an inappropriate word in an earlier post.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    As a pessimist I was astonished when my missing tyre was delivered at 9.30 am this morning (Sunday) yahoo!! I have messaged the fitter and it will be fitted in the morning and back on the Spyder ASAP!!

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Nothing, I have been waiting 7 days for delivery of my new tyre. Site said 2 day delivery ! Getting in touch with these people is something like a séance, "Is there anybody out there?"
