• 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.

    Warming Up Engine

    Same here. Little to no real warm up time given. My Spyder will hesitate a bit if its cold out when I do this (under 50) but rarely stalls (only a couple of times when the temps were below 30).

    Getting a Russell Day-Long

    :dontknow: Most people think global warming is a myth so, according to them, the temperatures should be no worse when your boys are older.

    Rear Fender Mod

    Does the $400 pricetag for the fender mod include beefing up the fender support arms any? Just asking as I, along with a few other Spyder owners, have had the brackets break near where the fender attaches. Also, any chance of the relocated fender hitting the undertail pan when the shock is...

    How is the car tire vs bike tire working out?

    I get my Spyder tires changed at Discount Tire. Their machine can handle the Spyder rims and I use Ride_on to balance the tires, no need for wheel weights.

    Please help, short ride now will not start...

    No worries. A lot of us SpyderLover addicts can't understand that some members may have other things to do instead of checking out these forums multiple times per day. :thumbup:

    Same here, times two as dltang's battery hasn't been on a charger either.

    RS High Windshield Thoughts and Poll

    If by 14 inch shield you mean BRP's regular touring windshield, it is no different than riding with the stock windshield for bug / wind protection.

    RS High Windshield Thoughts and Poll

    The Madstad has been my overall favorite windshield of all and I've tried a bunch of them. BRP stock, BRP touring, F1, F1 EVO II tall, F1 EVO III, F1 EVO III slider regular, F1 EVO III slider tall, Calsci medium, Madstad. I think thats it.

    JM Integratr IV -V- Starcom 1

    It's been a while but dltang and I did have the Integratr and it worked good. Our problem was that the FRS radio talking distance wasn't what we were hoping for so we sold the setup and bought J&M's Spyder CB setup. We never even tried buying a seperate CB and connecting that to the Integratr as...

    HMF Exhaust doesn't fit 2011 Spyder

    Aha. I see that your parking brake mechanism is much different than mine. That's why your fix wouldn't work for me.

    Excessive Complaining

    For all you complainers, I'm going to suggest Lamont gets one of these for the SpyderLovers forums. :D

    Supporting Vendors

    There was at least one other sponser who was doing oil filter, washer, o-ring and oil sales who dropped out. Bajaron now sells those washers, o-rings and filters. Maybe another one or two have left also but I can't say for sure.

    Supporting Vendors

    Nope, I don't think they ever were a sponser of SpyderLovers.

    Rev Limit

    It has a rev limiter and it behaves like your Ducati does. Same thing happens when you go into Limp Mode as the rev limit is reset down to 4000 or 4500 rpms.

    Washing Spyder

    :agree: I thought only Harley riders with tons of chrome spent more time cleaning their bikes than they spent riding them. :D

    RS High Windshield Thoughts and Poll

    :dontknow: I don't think you're a jerk but I do not agree with your assesment of a taller windshield. On my trips in 2008 to Valcourt, Quebec, St.Ignace, MI and Gatlinburg, TN., 2009 to Mackinaw City, MI, L.A. and Mosheim, TN., 2010 to Cuba, MO. and Chicago,IL and 2011 to Cuba, MO., I never...

    Michigan get together in Gregory?

    Sounds like fun but I'm not sure when we would be able to swing this. Between jobs, pre-planned vacations, home / yard work, it seems like we are booked solid for the summer.

    100,000 Mile Rotax Engine

    Same as many others, the front pully and shaft splines were shot. Add to that an inordinately long repair time (5 - 6 months) due to BRP parts backorders and dealer service dragging out the repair on mine and my wife's Spyders. Finally Carlo (BRP tech support guru) just got me a new engine...
