• 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.

    "JUST DROVE A CAN AM "TRIKE" AND HATED IT. "

    The thing I like about my 2 in front wheel TW trikes in the dirt is that I can see exactly where my front wheels are going in the nasty stuff, and if I do dab my foot it doesn't get run over.

    Lamonster Ride to San Diego by way of Sturgis

    Congrats Lamontster, have a good ride! :congrats: What about the Julian ride that was mentioned, after you get out San Diego way? :yes: I would need to know by Thursday (7/31) evening so I can load up my Spyder and I can trailer it to my desert place with me, when I drive down there on...

    How Stiff?

    I cranked my front shocks up to maximum stiffness soon after I got my Spyder and I haven't touched those since. I'm 6'3" and 240 lbs.

    Yes, I built two of these street legal ATC's by marrying the front end of Yamaha YFZ450 ATV's to the front of the TW200's. I also adapted the motorcycle front wheels of the TW to the ATV hubs so I could use the stock disk brakes of the ATV. I love these things in the dirt and I have done some...

    2008-07-27 Road to LA County

    Man, you guys will right in my "back yard" when you get to Costa Mesa. Too bad tomorrow morning is the finish of the Tour de France and I want to watch that (on TV). Smokester: Contact me by e-mail and maybe you guys could come by my place when you start your ride from the IKEA. You already...

    Reverse? My Spyder has two wheels in front - doesn't yours? ;) Oh - I've been I've been looking at two wheels in front for several years now, so maybe my thinking has reversed (see my profile photo, built two of those). :2thumbs:

    Julian ride

    Please keep us posted, Lamont. It looks like there is definitely SoCal interest in this ride. I hope the timing works out for me!

    Julian ride

    Santa Ysabel sounds good to me. I go through there every time I drive out to my desert cabin (near Agua Caliente). I would trailer my Spyder to my cabin and then ride back over to Santa Ysabel to meet. Riding back through Julian with the group and eventually back to my desert cabin, which is a...

    Northern California Ride!

    That would be great to have a bunch of Spyders there. I wonder how many there are now in N. Cal. I'm in SoCal so it is a long way from me.

    Harley offers new 3-wheeler

    This is the one I expected to see, also, when I clicked on the link. Harley actually got patents (or maybe just applied) on this lean trike design, so I wonder why they didn't go with this one? Maybe because it was too "untraditional" for their image? :dontknow:

    initial oil consumption

    At about 400 miles my Spyder's oil level (checked as per instructions) is still right at the full mark. I checked it when I picked it up at the dealers (because of a previous horror story here on this forum) and it was at the full mark. So I have had no noticeable oil usage in about 400 miles.

    Calsci windsheild review

    I like this windshield!!!!!!!!!! From the reports it sounds like it works fairly well also. As far as I know right now I won't be doing long cross country rides on my Spyder, but I sure would like better wind protection at 85 on the SoCal freeways.

    Riser MSRP is in! Pre-orders now being accepted

    Those risers look neat but I have a concern. I've fabricated a lot of things of this nature and I know it is difficult to get something like this to clamp hard enough to prevent slippage. It looks to me like very much forward or reverse pressure on the elevated bar would cause the riser to slip...

    Please show us a photo of your riser (either one) installed on the Spyder.

    Spyder in Idyllwild CA

    I saw a Spyder in Idyllwild California yesterday evening. Was that anyone on this forum? I was riding one of my Yamaha TWTrike conversions and passed by some kind of motorcycle happening where they had the street barricaded. I was meeting friends for dinner so I couldn't stop to check out the...

    Lamonster Hand Brake

    I agree with the need to do this mod if you ride other bikes. When I ride my Yamaha trike conversions (see my photo) I find myself stopping with the foot pedal rear brake only, because I have gotten accustomed to riding the Spyder. This especially applies to me because I'm riding another front...

    Demographics

    Ah, for a while it was looking like I was the oldest one (@73) here. Glad to see there is another old fart riding. :congrats: We don't need no stinkin' Viagra to ride a motorcycle! Frank

    Stop lights won't change

    It's probably a magnet. You can get one cheaper at your local Ace Hardware store. Mount it with zip ties and some silicone seal. Frank
