• 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.

    Position Light Bulbs to LED

    Definately a good mod. That was one of the first ones I did to my Spyder so the lights would match my HID headlights.

    Bad relay?

    If you put the old bulbs back in does the problem go away?

    First 600 Mile Service

    Why 2 filters? >> 1 Engine Oil Filter $14.99 1 E5 Oil Filter $14.99 << I did an oil change on my Spyder this Sunday and the manual states 4.1 quarts. So they probably charged you 5 quarts because they needed the .1 :)

    Heated Grips On RS?

    Here is how I mounted the controller for the Oxfords I think I bent the bracket a little bit and then just secured the heater control to the top bolt near the clutch You can see how the wire is on the bottom of the grip. It doesn't get in the way at all.

    Check your Ball Joints!!

    hmm..I have a slight vibration that showed up on my Phantom recently (4200 miles on her now since November). While I doubt this is causing my issue..I may just take a peek at those ball joints this weekend. Man, I'm suprised you would see failure on yours with only 10k.

    Heated Grips On RS?

    I put Oxford Heated grips on my Phantom (gs/rs). They're awesome@! I live in Eastern PA and spent December through May riding with them on. I've been through 20 degree weather and I have to tell you that they have been a real life saver! I usually have to toggle between 100% and 75% because at...

    Speed?

    The cap is definately not 110mph like they say. ;) Rumor has it that someone took my Phantom on an "unknown highway in NJ" and reached 124 mph before it was backed off for safety reasons*. * If there was more distance, safer situation (no traffic, wasn't commuter time, etc,etc).. I'm...

    Lehigh Valley PA: went up 611 today (spur of the moment)

    Last minute I decided to go from Hellertown (Bethlehem/Easton Area) to 611 North, up to Route 80, then down 33, and back over to 78 to Hellertown for chineese food. One big loop :P I saw a lot of bikes but no Spyders. But at least I was out there to represent. :D I was debating on taking...

    09 RS - HID question answered

    Everything has been working great with the capacitor installed on the wire from the battery to the HID harness. Ballasts are just tie wrapped to the frame in different spots near the trunk.

    Please help

    I had high RPMs when I had too much electrical draw on some 3rd party stuff (Hids, heated grips, LEDs, stereo , etc). You may want to check the output of the battery with a meter to see what voltage you are getting.

    fishtailing

    Definately is a challenge when that back wheel goes sideways on you when hitting a patch of ice!!! woohoo! Even if the engine retards fire it won't save your butt in that 2 seconds... you just have to keep steering in the direction you want to go and hope you don't panic or oversteer. I...

    VSS Fault AGAIN

    Check for blown fuses and reseat the relays in the fuse box closest to the trunk. If there are no blown fuses and resetting the relay resolved the issue you may want to consider a new set of relays

    Maybe with all the chrome the Spyder is now High Maintenance :P

    09 RS - HID question answered

    I believe the above link is only for cars that have solenoids that are integrated into the ballasts that power the shutter from low to high beam. If I understand what the link says, is that if you replace the stock ballast with aftermarket the solenoid isnt there or something so this replaces...
