• 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.

    Metal Piece on Magnetic Oil Drain Plug

    DRAIN PLUGS On my first oil change, I ordered replacement plugs with much larger magnets. Also, the new plugs take a socket rather than the oe plugs that use an ellen wrench that could strip the hole. No doubt the much larger and stronger magnets will do a greater job of trapping the metals...

    Handicap Stickers

    HANG CARD I solved my problem by putting velcro on the top of the dash below the windshield and on the handicap mirror hang card. The card shows up clearly for anyone who is nearby and is easily removable when leaving. I have not had any problems so far.

    WHY IS GAS MILEAGE SO BAD, COULD IT BE HOT GAS?

    MPG???? At my age, a few extra pennies for gas does not bother me. The way I look at it, the enjoyment of riding my RTL comes first and all other distractions are poof and gone. My riding buddies also feel the same. The fuel tank holds approx. 6.5 gallons and if gas went up a nickel, that...

    RT Full Cover thoughts

    COVERS I have a full cover, not contoured, that fits completely over the RTL. This works very well for long storage periods such as our winters in the frozen tundra. For the good weather rides that are over night, I have a half cover that fits and covers the windshield and back over the rear...

    Thinking of buying a Spyder RT-S or Limited

    DO IT YOURSELF When my RTL needed the first oil change, I said to myself, I can do it. I ran the RTL up on car ramps, locked it into park, used my floor jack to jack up the back end, put boards under the rear tire and then proceeded. Just follow the directions (YouTube) and take the sections...
