• 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.

    Lost SpyderLover Checkin In

    There he is! I was wondering about you as well. Great to hear things are turning around.

    heated gloves,vests

    True that, Ron. These suits are the BOMB! I tried one on and I couldn't believe how well it worked. But I'm not a very small person, and the suit made me look like the StayPuff Marshmellow Man! :roflblack: Definitely NOT the suit's fault. So I didn't get one. But then I'm pretty spoiled in that...

    I can't be the only one who feels this way....

    PDX, I hear you. I have to say that I find most of the things for Spyders to be waaaaay over-priced. I know all about R and D yada-yada, but there is a limit, and most of these things are way over the line. So they don't get my money! But again, that's just me. I'm with Groundeffect - if it does...

    I can't decide.....What do you think??

    Personally I would not do the fenders. But that's just me. I LOVE the rally stripe on the hood all the way back though! Great look. :thumbup:

    my San Fran road trip official BRP videos...

    Great Stuff, Mickey! Welcome (or welcome back!) to the wild west! Not sure if you are still in the area but if you are you should try to make it out to Alice's Restaurant, where 35 and 84 meet. The ride to get there alone is worth the trip! Not to mention a fantastic menu that features some...

    Thinking of making the switch from the Goldwing!

    Personally I like having both the Spyder and the GSX1250FA. The FA is now my primary ride but I switch on a pretty regular basis to take a little pressure off both machines. I was going to get rid of the Spyder initially but after some thought I decided that I just can't do it! Phantom 14 has...

    A Beautiful Sight to See!

    HMMM... I always thought that beauty was in the eye of the "beer holder"... :roflblack:

    MOTO GP starts this weekend, anyone else watch this

    SETH! - Good to her from ya, man. I hear what you are saying. Everybody that straps a lid on to go race knows what can happen, and fans like us know it too but you are never really prepared for something like that. Hell, my first race as a crew member a guy got whacked in the Featherlite...

    Has any one found good replacement Spark Plug Wires

    Hey Ron - I know you are busy with these wire sets and and all. It sounds like there may be a bit of a wait. I would like to order a set of wires and a set of plugs for Phantom 14 (2009 Phantom GS). When you are in a position to take more orders please let me know and we can proceed. May need...

    MOTO GP starts this weekend, anyone else watch this

    So Trooper, looking forward to next season, what is your feeling about the jump to the new 1000cc machines? I have not been able to follow the testing very much at all or get any first impressions from the riders, but it would seem that there is some excitement there. The possibility of having a...

    Some welcome

    I don't know, I kinda liked mine. Both of 'em. Took a while for them to come, but it was kinda fun when they did. Came with my owner card so I could register with the machine, a nice pic of my Spyder, some cool patches, pins which I wear on my jackets, and product info cards which frankly help a...

    MOTO GP starts this weekend, anyone else watch this

    I was watching it live and couldn't believe my eyes. Truly horrific to watch. On the day of Dan Weldon's funeral no less. Just tragic in both cases. Sic always had this issue of pushing too hard on cold tires and I think this may have been the case here as well. He was battling with Bautista...

    Another careless cager

    Take one look at this piece of trash and you could well be right. Makes you feel bad for the Donkey... I just hope they nail this "thing" to the wall for this one. She knew what she had done and tried to run away. This is murder, plain and simple, and should be tried as such. Thoughts and...

    I plan on keeping my 2008 Spyde for a long time

    Yup, I'm with you on this one Dan. I don't see any reason to change at this point. There is nothing too "new" about the new models that motivates me to move away from Phantom 14. And re-sale/trade value is about zip, so that's out of the equation. Besides, 14 is 14! I like her the way she is...

    Spyder Sightings

    Tuesday morning 10/11/11 at about 0800 hrs I saw an RS on Highway 101 Northbound just north of 92. Couldn't quite see what color it was because the Sun was in my face so it was more of a silhouette (I was heading south on my trusty 14!). Funny thing was wwe were wearing similar looking jackets!

    NFL player injured in Spyder accident

    I don't know about this one. Obviously that is a pretty bad wreck there and the man is pretty lucky he wasn't seriously hurt. But to fly 80 yards through the air? There is no way a Spyder can produce enough forward velocity to propel a 300 pound mass that far. It just can't happen. I am guessing...

    PAZZO Levers

    Better adjustability and better positioning of your hand/fingers can lead to better feel and control, hence Quicker shifts for sure. Plus they look awsome! Might just have to take the plunge and get one. I've been wanting to get some shorties for the FA as well. Great info man! Thanks.

    License plate light cover

    I lost 3 of them before I finally figured out to use a slightly larger screw with some felt washers and then used black RTV silicone. She's good to go now. I wanted to keep the OEM parts on the machine seeins as she's an original Phantom.

    Why can't people keep negative opinions to themselves?

    Well played, Lamont! :D I could not have said it better myself!

    Why can't people keep negative opinions to themselves?

    You know, James, people are going to think what they are going to think. I have no such inclinations to have these battles of witts with such unarmed people. I don't know why so many riders are so uneducated as to try and group the Spyder in with any motorcycle brand or type. I had this same...
