• 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.

    How many States require a Motorcycle Endorsement for Spyders?

    NC requires a Motorcycle endorsement, which I have, which allows both 2 and 3 wheels. However, you would need a Motorcycle license with the 3 wheel endorsement if you weren't going to ride a 2 wheeler.

    Anyone tried Slime in the Rear wheel? How did it work?

    My tire guy, after I brought a tire in with slime, told me that if I ever used it again, he would bury me next to Jimmy Hoffa! It's just plain messy!

    Any Recommendations for USA Made Trailer Bearings Other Than Timken?

    Is it me, or don't you think that Timken should be asking the distributor where they are getting the counterfeit bearings from and going after the source of them?

    What do you think of these Ramps for loading a Spyder onto an aluminum utility trailer?

    If I was using these ramps, I would have several blocks to put at the hinge at the middle of each one. The totally eliminates the possibility of a ramp breaking in two at the hinge, and takes the bounce or flex out of the trip up and down. And be totally sure they won't move as mentioned! I was...

    After hearing so much hoopla, I finally tried Buc-ee's! Never Again!

    If you knew how they treat truck drivers, you wouldn't set foot in one! If a truck driver parks across the street and walks towards one, they meet him in the lot and very rudely tell him that he isn't welcome there! Imagine if that was your brother, sister, mother, you get it!

    Test Drove A Goldwing Trike

    I went to a Can-Am dealer looking at a beautiful Goldwing trike they had. The sales lady gave me a brochure for the Spyder. I also went to our local HD dealer and looked at a Tri-Glide. Total pos! Then I read the Spyder brochure, loved the safety aspect of them and was hooked! (I might ad that...

    Had to wear Gloves for Can Am riding course - Do you wear gloves? Why? Or why not?

    You wear gloves to protect our palms from getting scraped up if we hit the ground. Think about it, you are reaching forward!

    Any feedback on Kanines after 2 years?

    Personally, I wouldn't have any Kenda on my Spyder! When I put the Vredesteins on the front of 2 different Spyders, and the ride changed by 100 percent, I was DONE with Kendas! We already know that the sidewall composition on the Kanines is the same as the crap Kendas that came on our Spyders...

    What's going on with this Super-hot exhaust???

    On my 2013 RTL, I took off, very little power, my right foot got hot, I had driven it 3 miles. It actually cut off coming to a stop. I cranked it back up, drove it back to the trailer, as I was unlocking it, the dash started flaming! It was suspected that it was a fuel problem!

    Anyone know how to add a strobe/flasher to RT Brake Lights?

    I hate them, they are very distracting! Some trucking companies are putting them on the rear of their trailers, and they are annoying! My two cents!

    Those of you that Concealed Carry on your Spyder, what type of holster do you use?

    If you have to get one in the chamber, you then waste precious time when needed!

    I would be surprised if any cover will survive the wind being towed like that. And I could be wrong!

    My new baby - which gas? 87, E10, or is 91 octane better?

    Hi folks, I know that this has been discussed a lot! However, I don't know if the question was asked the way I put it. That said, looks like I'll be fine with the 87. Thanks folks!
