• 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.

    What do/did you do for a living?

    Police Chief that would like to retire! Been on the job for 21 years and will probably do another 5 before I call it quits. Actually I was kidding about wanting to retire. It is a hard job sometimes but I have 52 of the best employees a chief could ever hope for. I love every one of them and...

    2011 RS Cruise Control

    Installed the cruise-mate today and it works great. I would recommend the free install if you arent mechanically inclined. Instructions coul be better and I almost screwed mine up by threading the bushing in crooked. Very pleased with how well it works though.

    Wiring question

    I was wondering if I might just get used to it. I can pull my helmet up where the chin guard blocks the direct light, but the red glare reflecting off my hands in the mirrors is still pretty bright. I may just try it for a few weeks and see if I get accustomed to it. If not, I will try the...

    Almost torched the bike! Huge leak in upper right side.

    I am always worried about the chance of a fire. Every time I pull into my garage and park, there is a strong odor of gas coming from my spyder. I have looked everything over pretty good and can't find the source of the smell. I have seen others comment on the gas smell. Is this just normal...

    Wiring question

    Maybe someone has already done this and can help. I installed the magicflex channelz fender lights and fender tips unit from custom dynamics. I really like this set up, but at night the fender lights are too bright. Even the reflection off my hands and windshield is distracting. So, what I...

    Firstgear Cold Weather - Themo Suit Sale!

    I am so glad I bought this thermo suit. I tried it out for the first time this morning. It was 37 degrees and all I wore under it was a short sleeve T-shirt and blue jeans. I was very impressed. Unlike my other gear that has cold spots, those annoying little areas where just enough wind/air...

    BRP Sport Rack Helmet Locks

    Looking at everything, it appears this only works with the backrest and not with the sportrack cover.

    Kewlmetal drawing

    I ordered mirror extensions Saturday from Kewlmetal. Got a good deal with black friday pricing. Today I received an email informing me that I won their "small business day" drawing. I won a $100 gift card, which I applied to my order. Basically, I got my mirror extensions for free! I never...

    Tell me why you love your RS/GS...

    RSS I love my RSS. However, I have added 4 inch risers, ultra touring windshield, sport rack, passenger backrest, saddlebags, and highway pegs. I will be adding passenger footpeg extensions and a comfort seat for my wife in the near future. If the ST would have been available when I bought...

    To Brake or Not To Brake....

    A hand brake wouldn't be a waste if the parking brake fails (or in my case - I failed to engage the parking brake) and you are chasing after your Spyder. Sometimes I wish I would have gone with the SM5 just so I didn't have to rely on the parking brake. Also, a hand brake would be great for...

    Best model for touring, RS out of the running?

    The 4 inch risers, touring windshield, and highway pegs make my RSS very comfortable for long rides. But I have to admit that when I sat on an RT a few weeks ago, it felt pretty darn comfortable and I spent a few days talking myself out of upgrading to one. I won't be sitting on an RT again...
