• 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.

    The surgery went well!

    Glad to hear you are feeling better. Just watch your diet, limit high fat foods, they can bring on phantom gallbladder attacks, ask me how I know. Also be careful lifting or bending, not like you'll feel up to it right now. Go with the child servants, that's why you had them right? Good luck...

    Sticky steering

    Okay, I did end up taking the spyder in for its service, rain and all. I did talk to the mechanic and he informed me that if he hooks it up to BUDS it will do the second update automatically. I declined. I explained to him about the third update coming soon, and he also agreed that the second...

    Sticky steering

    Okay, Maybe I won't be taking it in tomorrow. We have had some bad storms here today with tornado warnings, hail, etc. It's supposed to be nasty tomorrow too, we'll see. If it's not too bad I just put on some rain gear and head out. A 10 min drive is fine in rain, just not in a downpour. I...

    Sticky steering

    I checked the tire pressure before we rode. All was fine. Made the appt for friday. Jim, the service rep was trying to tell me that the second update will automatically be done as soon as they hook it up to BUDS. I told him he was incorrect. It will not download the second update unless...

    Sticky steering

    I know I'm lucky about that. I could also go to the St. Augustine dealer where I bought my bike and he's about an hour away. They both are great dealers and are owned by motorcycle enthusiasts, not corporate people. So they do their research and know how to treat their customers. I hope it's...

    Daytona and DPS problems

    Tsk, Tsk, see what NOT following directions gets you? Damn kids can't seem to follow a simple direction, do NOT go up the banks! I hope you learned your lesson! I know it's hard to resist. Our Boxster did the same thing when we did a tour of the track a couple of years ago. We were stopped...

    Sticky steering

    I hope so. My dealer is about 10 minutes away, I know, I'm very lucky in that regard. They also treat me very well. They know me by name and always are there to answer any questions. Hubby laughs because he used the same dealer for his Goldwing and they didn't know him at all. We would go...

    Sticky steering

    I have a 2008 SE5 with about 2600 miles on it. I have only had the first update done, I didn't feel I should get the second update, and I still won't. I will wait for the next one, considering there should be more testing done on it. While talking with my husband, and explaining it to him, it...

    Sticky steering

    Just got back from a ride with my parents and hubby. My steering started acting up on the way home. It felt "sticky". No other way to describe it. It felt like it was catching, like it needed to be lubricated. Anyway, I didn't panic but put in a bit more effort to make the turn. Nothing I...

    Time for the Daytona Thread

    I live here, so I'll be around with hubby. Trying to work out my work schedule so my nights are free. Hopefully this cold weather leaves. We went for a ride today and it got up to 55 degrees. A little chilly, but nice anyway. Joyce

    Daytona Bike Week 2010

    Hubby and I went for a tour one year with our Porsche. We were going good until everyone stopped on one of the turns and we were sitting on an angle. All the electronics in the car went haywire. It thought we were tipped over. Too funny. We got done with the tour and had to turn the car off...

    Dream Garage

    OOH I like Smych, idea. That would be fun! I have been trying to talk hubby into getting a mig welder, don't know anything about them, but would be fun to learn. Geez your garage makes hubby's look bad. We have a 600 sq ft detached garage with a Porsche Boxster, his new Vcitory Cross Country...

    Favorite App for Smart Phones

    When we went to georgia I used localpicks for the iphone to find good places to eat. We found some really great food in the same complex as our hotel. hubby laughs at all the apps I have, he ends up having as well on his phone when he synchs up. Oh well.They have come in very handy. Joyce

    Getting front tires balanced

    I went to Discount tire as well to have them put on my new rims and balance them. The tires were too small for their balancer, so I took it to my local motorcycle dealer and they did it. They did a great job. I am lucky that I live about 10 minutes away from Daytona fun machines, who is also...

    Bad Key

    Actually, hubby and I each have a key to the other's vehicle with us at all times. So I always carry a Victory key and he always carries a Spyder key with him. Just in case someone loses a key, locks it into a bag, whatever. My parents got us started to do this. They do it as well. It just...

    who got what goodies for Chriatmas??

    OOo I like where you're going with that. Although I almost tagged a cop on the road yesterday. Whoops. Anyway, it is fun to play with, plus we can actually get the right speed for the bikes. My Dad's HD seems to read 5 mph slower than mine. So we'll check that.
