• 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.

    Ok, I'm convinced I need both the mirror extension and the riser. I do have the Ultra Tour Windshield. I am 6'2", 240 lb. Will I need to cut the windshield so everything will fit?

Put the battery on my 2 Amp charger and cleaned the battery terminals. Returned the battery to the spyder and secured it tightly. Replaced the...
