• 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.

    Lifting a spyder rt with an atv hydraulic floor jack

    Iguess my question was more ....where do you line the jack up. I think a different post said to line the front "blade" of the jack in line with the operator foot peg mounting point. Can you add a "line up" clarification for us ? Thanks ! :thumbup:

    Lifting a spyder rt with an atv hydraulic floor jack

    Great photo Is there plenty of frame to use under there if you have the jack a little too fwd or a little bit too rearward ?

    Battery Tender Connections

    Just the regular "split" lock washer....I get them in stainless steel to avoid rust/corosion. Any hardware store.

    Dealer and first service.

    You would think a dealership would not have the room to store 2 weeks of work ahead....or that they would want the responsibility or liability to store someones ride that long. "Cant fix stupid" :sour:

    Dealer and first service.

    I have to agree...you make an appointment to have your service done (I always...while I wait), not an appointment to stand in line. Their IS a problem in some areas around the Country; lack of Dealers, lack of "problemed dealers", lack of skilled mechanics. This is frustrating.

    Battery Tender Connections

    I have used battery tenders for 20+ years. I always connect them direct to the battery. Since some have issues with loose battery connections....it is also a good time to put lock washers on those terminal connections ! :thumbup:

    Laser alignment warning

    Report them to BRP...they need to hear this stuff. Go back and ask for a full refund.... if they refuse, stop payment on check/credit card.

    Callling it Quits

    I think a fair amount of us here switched to the Spyder for health issues vs. 2 wheels. This is the next step for many of us....retirement from recreational vehicles. Sorry for your conditions, take care of yourself and find some other joys to share in your life ! :thumbup: And yes....stick...

    Selling on CL?

    I have used CycleTrader selling my last 2 motorcycles with great success. I tried CL and all I got was scammers and weirdos. I will NEVER use Craig's list for anything.............and my name is "Craig" ! ;)

    What if the ST model is discontinued?

    I like the looks of my ST-L better than the F3 "ST". So I am happy with my selection.

    Riding Sunglasses

    Your problem may not be the sunglasses...if pressure from the helmet is pushing on the sides of the glasses, this will occur with any glasses. You may need to get a helmet one size bigger. :thumbup: Some helmets are molded and shaped differently too; more oval, more round, narrow, wide.....I...

    cleaning wheels

    For the front wheels I got a nice soft wheel brush from Walmart...it has a long handle so I dont have to bend over very far. For the rear wheel (that one is harder to get too) as above....get a long handled scrub brush; believe it or not a toilet brush works pretty good. :hun:

    Spyder Rider Demographics

    I first looked at the Spyder in 2008 because I thought it was cool ! :clap: I purchased in 2015 because I am aging and it just is not safe to be on 2 wheels anymore.....I am glad I made the change ! :thumbup: Is that what they meant by "the change of life" ? :yikes::opps:

    What if the ST model is discontinued?

    By law...manufacturers must have a supply of every part made for a minimum of 10 years from production. So I would not worry about that. I know there are some great deals on 2014's and I am sure over the Winter will be great deals on 15's. On the 14's I think the rebate is now $4K. I got my...

    Rear Tire / Slingshot Owners...

    I checked with my former 2 wheel motorcycle dealer who I have confidence in and in their mechanics. They now sell Slingshots besides 2 wheelers. They WILL install any tire I want on my Spyder. I brought up this post because of this....figuring SS dealers would have the appropriate tools etc...
