• 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.

    Seeking advice

    FWIW I have over 600K miles on 2 wheels. It took me 3000 miles for my instinctive reaction to be appropriate for 3 wheels. Just hang in, keep riding, and you will become comfortable, I am sure.

    Nitrogen on tires or not, that is the question...

    Very good! Certainly hits the nail on the head when applied to a recent thread.

    Lost my Spyder Dealer

    Hmmmm Being a Spyder dealer must not be the pot of gold some on Spyder Lovers seem to think it is. With a post I made which upset a lot of people, I explained part of the problem whether SL readers want to buy it or not.

    Our 2 Spyder's Odometers aren't accurate, but the Trip meters are - anyone else notice?

    Some years ago Suzuki did this and apparently with "intent". It was about 1972. They were made to extend the warranty to allow for the incorrect reading. I do think I will check mine more closely although warranty is not a particular problem.

    To wear a helmet or not

    Law or no law I put seat belts in my cars in the 50's and used them. I began wearing M/C helmets in the early 60's. Those heavy fiberglass automobile helmets. Having said this, I still think it should be our choice.

    FWIW, the F3

    To those few who do not like the looks, do not like the engine, do not like whatever. You are well advised to wait and see, wait and ride, the new Spyder. That is all for now.

    Low on oil

    Motorcycle oil vs non-motorcycle oil I hope I have not missed this in the thread. The reason for using motorcycle oil is the oil also runs in the transmission. The oil designated for motorcycles contains polymers to withstand the bashing the oil takes between the gears. Without the...

    discounts to forum members?

    Having been a vendor allow me to comment. As a vendor (The Sign Man III) at M/C rallies for about 20 years, I found it difficult to effectively provide a discount. You see my customers were those who attended the rallies. What I did was to provide my lowest possible prices at all times...

    Spyder Loyalty

    Doesn't this site have in excess of 10,000 members? Seems I saw that some where. How many complain of problems? And don't these who complain seem to be ones with multiple problems. I am not doubting their problems, just pointing out the small percentage.

    What's up with ELKA?

    I do not know but one possibility is they build them in batches and it may be a little time before this model comes up.

    Your simplest solution is to call for quotes from other ins. companies. Call several companies / agents. Be forthcoming about your record and that you are shopping rates.

    where to put ugly inspection sticker?

    When we lived in PA I made a plate, then made it part of my BMW by fastening it with a bolt used to hold the front fender. They accepted it and that was where my sticker was placed.

    What is the secret.......

    I agree with Chupaca I averaged about 31-32 on my 2012 RT Ltd, but most of my riding was 1 up. I have to say I never really noticed a difference 2 up. My problem was not so much mpg as it was mpt (miles per tank). Man, I love my 2014!

    Submariner Spyder riders

    No. Kind of the opposite I trained our air guys to find and destroy the bad guys' subs. Of course that was back in the 50's. I was amazed when the book "Hunt for Red October" came out to find how similar things still were.

    orange peel paint

    FWIW your description of "orange peel" is not precisely correct. However that not withstanding, what color(s) did you look at? And IF fit and finish is your main concern, why not just buy a H-D trike conversion. And if performance means more to you, how about just sucking it up and buy a...
