• 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.

    Average age of Spyder owners?

    ACTUALLY... Sometimes I feel like I did when I was 22...other days 85, sometimes 53. If I add them all up my average age is somewhere in the 56.2 range.:sour:

    Sometimes I just stare at it .....

    With you Bro With you Bro! Scoot3r's got 14K now and I still feel like when I first got him. Something akin to wanting something so bad you could just taste it, then when you got it all you could do was just stand there and grin at it. Man I'm still grinning at him.

    So what would make you trade up to a 2014?

    What would make me trade up to a 2014 Spyder? Like many of the others on this thread, nothing right now. My 2010 RT A&C is reliable; my wife and I enjoy ryding it; it's only got 12 grand on the odometer. If I were to buy a 2014, I would probably wait to to see what beta-testing show, whether or...

    I Just Couldn't Help It!

    About 45 minutes ago, I was fueling Scoot3r at the local convenience store when a young woman and her boyfriend/husband pulled up to the pump behind me and got out. They both showed a high level of interest in my ryde and came up to look it over. the young women then asked me, "Is that one of...

    Calling all spyderlovers: to Spyder?, or not to Spyder?: that is the question

    Totally Agree! steve635 is spot on. Your dealer can make or break a really good ryde-from walking out of the showroom to your first service department encounter.

    Rogerb Accident Thoughts and Prayers are with him and his granddaughter for rapid healing...and some patience (our older bones take a little longer to mend). Hope he's up and ryding again soon. Jim "Kraut" Fussner

    12,617 Trouble Free Miles

    Here's the mounting. I used an inverted aircraft RAM so that the ball would be above the cowl placing the GPS within my normal scan. It's simple and fits my needs nicely. Hope it gives you some ideas.

    12,617 Trouble Free Miles

    Guess I need to be more specific Trouble-free is somewhat relative for me. What I should have said by "trouble free" is that I have not had any codes thrown at me; no limp modes, no unexplained shut-downs, no-starts, drips, leaks or errors. I am as about as technical as my pet Black Lab and if...

    12,617 Trouble Free Miles

    Yeh you miss it but ain't the reunion sweet when you get that call from the service manager saying it's all back together, checked out and ready to go?

    12,617 Trouble Free Miles

    Got home Thursday after having Scoot3r's 12,000 mile check-up and some additional work done. Scoot3r is a 2010 RT A&C SE5, no real problems and with no mods other than a cowl-mounted GPS and splash guard scuff plates for my highway feet position. I had the rear tire replaced, the 12,000 mile...

    I'M BACK!

    THANK YOU ALL! Thanks for the warm welcome back! As many of you already know our journey through life at times can be be a real roller coaster ride of good news/bad news/good news. At the end it gives you a real appreciation of the life that God has given us.

    I'M BACK!

    After months (so long I forgot my password) I am back among the living. Nearly 18 months of colon tumor and surgery, 45 pounds lighter and followed up by an aortic aneurysm-I now have a bionic aorta-I'm back in the world of the living and ryding again! I'll post more now I have my thoughts together.

    Spyder RT rider reviews

    Have you ever wanted something so bad you could taste it, and once you got it all you could do was stand there and grin at it? I grin at my spyder all the time. I have a 2010 RTSE with 3800 miles on it that I bought in June 2011. About 3000 miles are highway ryding with remainder being around...

    anyone still riding ??

    Is a Wild Bear Catholic? Still Rydin'. Out here in the California Desert it's been severe clear with 93 million miles visability and highs in the mid-sixties. We've had several mornings where the temperature has been in the mid twenties, and a couple of days of wind, but other than that it has...

    Riding Comfort

    Riding Comfort-Relative I think "Rough" is a relative thing, I personally love the ryde on my 2010 RT. I say relative because my point of reference is from owning/riding: (1) BSA 441 "Thumper", (2) Triumph 650 TT, (3) HD Sportster, and finally, (4) HD "Soft Tail". After this progression, my RT...

    Spyder Sightings

    Waaahoo!! Thanks Weave2u! I was feeling mighty lonely up here in this part of the California desert-I have seen one Spyder since I bought my RT at the end of June. As a matter of fact I quit logging in because I felt like an outsider (Nobody's fault but my own). I really enjoyed talking with...
