• 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.

    Spyder Accident

    I hope they recover.... so sad... Let me tell you something funny about the state of Texas helmet law: So I recently got my M endorsement. In the TXDOT motorcycle handbook it states that you do not have to wear a helmet if you are over 21 and have taking the safety course. You are required to...

    Possible reason for RT windshield support cracks

    I cannot imagine that the stop is what actually makes the motor stop trying to move the windshield down. There should be some electronic control, pot or otherwise that tells the motor to stop turning, and that the windshield is fully down. I am also guessing that it is nothing as sophisticated...

    Has anyone given their Spyder a "Name"???

    I have not had ours long enough to give it a name that sticks, but it has been called "the Blue Bug" more often than not... I wont start an insect argument, but I am of the opinion that if it makes my wife go "eeewww" when it touches her, then its a "bug" because it "bugs" her... soooo...

    Honda Coolant

    thanks.. I drove it to work today. In traffic temp rose to the line between the square above half and the square below the hot temp. It pretty much stayed there... So is that normal or is it running hot?

    N43E Trilogy on closeout

    I tried all sorts of helmets today. I found out that the Nolan is too big, and just does not fit right. I tried a couple Shoeis and the difference in comfort is night and day in the 3/4 helmets. So back it goes, however I am still in the market because I just don't fit the helmets I want. Oh well...

    Honda Coolant

    other brands Pretty sure the coolant I saw in the res was green also. Some say that they can be mixed with any color. I called another Can Am dealer near by, and they are out of course, but they say that they have polaris and several others that will work? will they?

    Honda Coolant

    Quick ??? I cant seem to find the 50/50 prestone or Peak for aluminum radiators was was suggested for the spyder other than the Prestone DEX which says its formulated for GM cars. Has anyone used Hondas premixed coolant? Since I dont need that much and its close by, I thought about giving it...

    You could make some new holes, or it would be pretty easy to remove the poles from the mount and leave the plates attached.
