• 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.

    Drain Plug

    There is a small drain plug in the bottom of the trunk but it's real small. I have to use it each time I wash the Spyder because the trunk leaks so bad. :(

    Celebrity feeling - shot by Police

    Here's a couple of true stories. Cops are people too. I was driving around a Texas costal town when I realized a cop was following me. I didn't think I had violated any laws but after a few blocks he turned on his lights. I pulled over, took off my helmet and gloves and I was reaching for my...

    Looking for Advice on Cornering

    It took about 800 miles before I was comfortable doing controled fishtails around corners. It's easy to try to over-control the Spyder, relax, let your body do what it wants to do in the turn. Be patient, un-learning takes time too!

    Parking brake.........sticking

    Yes, I've had the same problem. Someone suggested that putting some WD40 on the mechinism would help. I did and it did. Problem gone...for now. :bigthumbsup:

    Cheese Heads

    My son lives in Kasson so I'm sure I'll be passing through Rochester a number of times...when it warms up a little more. We should put a "river ride" together this spring? Red Wing to LaCrosse and back. If we stop at the casino in Red Wing, I bet I could even get my better-half to come.

    Cheese Heads

    Come on cheese heads...it was 50 on Tuesday and today. I was out riding #593 and I didn't see another cheese head on a Spyder anywhere. Didn't anyone else from Wisconsin get a Spyder? I'm in Menomonie, near Eau Claire, any other Spyders nearby? Just a thought..."anyone that runs for president...

    Looking good Bill.

    That looks like an aftermarket windshield...how well does it work? It would be nice to see a picture of the Spyder a little further away to get a better perspective of how it looks on the unit.

    What's the best windshield to avoid buffetting?

    I fabed a 24" touring winshield but it's not quite tall enough for me. I have some clear Lexan coming and will fab another 26" tall. I might have enough material for a second one if you're interested.

    driving in snow?

    I live in Wisconsin, last week I couldn't take it anymore. The temperature got up to a balmy 39 degrees so I took the Spyder out for a spin. My side road is snow covered but the main roads were clear. I took it real easy on the snow covered road and had no problems. Once out on the dry pavement...

    Snow

    Wish you were here! It's been 80+ here the last week. Beats Wisconsin by a long shot. Midwest folks ... come on down to South Padre Island, Texas! Riding the Spyder everyday. (Sorry, don't know how to post a picture)

    Heading south

    Okay, I can't take it anymore! I only have 60 miles on the Spyder. The cold and snow in Wisconsin have gotten to me. The Spyder (#593) is on the trailer and I'm heading to South Padre Island, Texas (anyone care to join me?). Might make a stop in New Orleans on the way back. I'll try to post some...

    My first mod- Spyder Pegs!

    :bigthumbsup: Those look great!!! I'm gonna get me some of them. Question - I put the touring winshield on but it doesn't help much. Do you know of any taller aftermarket windshields?

    Improvements needed

    Improvements: 1) I have the touring windshield but it still doesn't provide much help blocking the wind; need something taller. 2) I can't seem to adjust the rearview mirrors very well, they probably need to be out further from the center.
