• 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.

    OEM seats

    For me, the key is to raise my butt up an inch or two, just enough to get the blood and air flowing again. With how I have placed my floorboards and Utopia backrest, I can stand with straight knees, leaning against the backrest. I can comfortably ride for miles in this position, steering with...

    F3 with discoloration on the seats. Anybody else?

    Phil, if I had leather seats, I would be sweating all the time, so I could see the jeans' dye leaching into the leather. I just couldn't do leather on a long trip unless it was ventilated.

    600mi Break-In not achieved in 1-year?

    Get the inspection done. There are some things that age is a factor as well as miles.

    Its not a Spyder, but i gotta show off my new toy my Hubby Got me

    Being that you're 'Redneck Diva', it would seem logical to me that you would swap that clearly-NOT-a-redneck vehicle for my pickup truck, right?

    CBs

    I have the BRP CB on my 2010 RT. I've had a lot of problems, especially while pulling the BRP RT-622 trailer. I had to replace the trailer wiring harness and have replaced the BRP antenna with the J&M model. I haven't ridden with anyone yet to know if it helps. I also added another ground...

    Visit to Blue Moon Cycle

    I've been there a number of times over the years, although it's been awhile since my last visit. I buy Garmin stuff there mainly. Steven Larson, one of the salesmen, used to work at the Honda shop in Lawrenceville & was the salesman who sold me my '01 GL1800A Goldwing. He's a good guy and a...

    Don't want to start trouble, but...

    I don't have an F3, but on my '08 GS & '10 RT, the Owners Manuals state where to place jacks for lifting. You might find that a pair of car ramps can be useful. I use them and then raise the rear with a floor jack, on the rearward most point of the frame - as my manuals state, to get a level...

    Don't want to start trouble, but...

    In the early days of the forum, some folks reported clutch issues using the Mobil-1 motorcycle formula. I have used it in my Goldwing for many years (& continue), but have decided other folks' bad experience on their Spyders is sufficient cause for me to choose not to use it in my Spyders.

    OIL DRAIN PLUG

    The original oil plugs are pretty soft metal & will easily strip on the hex key hole if you don't have the hex key fully seated before you apply torque. Like already suggested above, I recommend you replace it with an after market plug. I'm thinking I got the Goldplug, but am not certain after...

    Welcome to the forum! Hope you enjoy your new Spyder. I decided to keep my Goldwing too, although it doesn't see the road very often.

    New trailer on the road finally

    It's funny what you can find to put in your trailer. I have a spare wheel/tire for the trailer in mine & carry a wide assortment of tools and a service manual, cleaning supplies, oil bottles, etc. I installed the rails in the floor to help tie everything down. I also lay a blanket over...

    Trailering my RTS

    The space in that trailer will make it very difficult to move around and tie it down securely, but may be possible if the tie down anchors are in the right position. Also, the opening is generally a bit smaller than the overall dimensions, so measure carefully to make sure the front wheels and...
