• 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.

    seat opener mechanism?

    Since day one it has been a challenge to pop the seat to put gas in. Lately there have been times when I haven't been able to get it open at all because it feels like if I turn the key any further it will break. We have adjusted the bolt, oiled the spring and it just gets worse. I was just...

    lots of smoke but no fire

    We had only gone a few blocks when we pulled over and I noticed what I thought was condensation smoke coming up from the trunk then I got a burning smell and then the smoke pouring out the left side :yikes:. No fumes that I noticed while I was riding. I am thankful we were close to home and...

    lots of smoke but no fire

    Fish65 and I were going to have a great ride the next few days, around 1000 miles. We left the house around 01:30 for San Diego, Cailifornia and pulled over at the local 7 11 to adjust my mirrors and I noticed smoke coming out the front and then I saw more start to pour out the left side, I...

    mesh jacket

    I have a Joe Rocket mesh jacket that is great if you are moving but because its a dark color is pretty hot if you are not moving or there is no breeze. I live in Southern California but when I lived in Northern California the summer temps would hit 100 to 115 or so and used it frequently there...

    Have you painted your Spyder?

    :agree: the roadster red is a cool color and stands out. But if I do paint my spyder I'm probably going to go with a metallic deep red, blue or even green, something deep and shiny. Of course there is always my husbands' idea of painting spydie with a realtree pattern with ducks in it. SSG...

    Thanks for the thought DL but nope no doo rag and I've never been able to grow my hair long enough for a respectable pony tail. I even gave up my skunk tail a few years back. q-brrr I usually notice the knock at pretty decent speeds with my sunshield either up or down. The mechanism to the...

    Helmet problem

    I've thought about all the posts and I appreciate all of the responses. I ride the spyder and my better half rides a Vstrom, so know clinking of the heads. The knocking sound happens when I'm ridding in a t-shirt or button down and the chin strap and jacket collar are not anywhere near where...

    Earplugs while riding spyder

    I found nothing that felt comfortable to use until I tried the custom fit earplugs. They work great at the firearms range so I had one made for my bluetooth ear piece. I did have to have a filter fit into that one because even with the volume all the way down it was too loud. They can also...
