• 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.

    Spyders not for real men

    Would like to see the Spyder one :) I have seen this too: Top Ten Reasons Why Dual Sport Riders Don't Wave Back 10. Vibration of knobby tires prevented the rider from taking his hand off the bars. 9. MX style safety gear was too bright to see you wave. 8. His front fender prevents you seeing...

    Spyders not for real men

    I haven't had a problem with Harley riders. Hell, the first "biker wave" I got, 10 minutes after getting my RT from the dealer, was from a batch of Harley riders. And I've had some good chats with them in the motorcycle area of the Washington State Ferries. Gotten the occasional snarky...

    Looks good! My 12 year old daughter has already told me she plans to "inherit" my RT when she gets old enough to drive/ride. I told her it depends on how the 2017-2018's look. :)

    Leftover 2013s

    And I got my brand new 2012 RT-S5 in May of 2013. At the time I was pondering spending some extra for a 2013, but decided the deal on the 2012 was too good to pass up. In retrospect, it may have been the best decision.

    2012 Top Case Leaking?

    So after a month of keeping EVERYTHING out of that case, it's pretty much a confirmed leak. What's annoying is when it freezes and I get to clean the slush out of it. My RT-S is due for it's 5000 mile checkup soon, so I'll have the address the leaking at that time. Also may have to look...

    ryding to work

    Went to work on my RT half the time last week. Cold weather gear IS your friend. Only real problem I had is my visor fogging up. (Been using an anti-fog spray I get at REI called "CatCrap", with mixed results) Also took my daughter on a long ride last sunday when the temperature never...

    2012 Top Case Leaking?

    Not all the time. The rainy season normally only runs between January 1st and December 31st. :D Stripped out everything in the rear trunk except the iPod mount, and dried it completely. Going to see if I get leakage. if so, well, I'm coming up on my 5,000 checkup anyway.

    car pulled in front

    Out on a ride yesterday with my 12 year old. The driver in the car in the other lane was paying so much attention to my Spyder he didn't notice he was starting to drift into the other lane..... He caught himself in time, and I decided to put a LOT more space between him and I.

    2012 Top Case Leaking?

    Nope, the top case at the rear of the RT, behind the passenger seat and above the saddlebags. (or rear trunk, as I've also heard it called)

    2012 Top Case Leaking?

    Granted, I live in the Seattle area, so rain is pretty much normal. However, I've noticed that after a heavy rain, there seems to be a lot of drops and moisture in my 2012 RT's top case. I'm a bit worried since the XM radio and the iPod mounts are in the top case as well, and moisture +...

    Olympia Toy Run

    Looks like both me and my 12 year old are going to be doing this. Trying to see if we can mesh this in with some Girl Scout merit badge requirements. Also, with the kind permission of some dear friends of mine, I'm going to be riding (and bringing an extra toy) in the memory of their...
