• 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.

    Riders near Downingtown Pa?

    I'm guessing Blackman's is your dealer - did they install your mods? Particularly your ESI risers (floorboards too). I'd love to check out your ride, I've been interested in the risers, but haven't had the chance to see them in person.

    Communication system????

    If I understand your requirements correctly, that's exactly the setup that the Scala Rider Q2 accomodates. I think the range on the bike/bike communications is about 1/4 mile, but I use it for rider/passenger almost exclusively.

    Communication system????

    :agree: We've been using the Cardo Scala Q2 Multiset for the past year and love them. My wife rides solely as a passenger and uses a full face helmet with no problems at all. Pairing the headsets with a phone/GPS unit/ other Scala Rider systems is a breeze and they've worked flawlessly for us...

    East Coast Cycle Center

    Other area dealers.... I don't trust East Coast either - didn't do anything that obvious to me, but left with a really bad feeling about that place. Two very GOOD dealers I've done business with locally are Smith Marine (near Doylestown, PA) and Blackman's Cycle (near Allentown, PA) both are...

    Noisy Brake Question....

    Fired up the Spyder today for the first ride of the spring:yes:.....started right up and purred right away. Knowing the issues people have had with brake noise, I released the parking brake and rolled it back a forth for a few feet. There was an awful squeal coming from the back wheel - not...

    MadStad RoboBracket Template

    I have a Givi shield and have been wondering if it could be mounted to the Robobrackets. It seems that the Givi needs to be "pushed" into position to get the mounting holes to line up on the :spyder: and the tension helps give the shield its shape. What do you think of the set up (functionality...

    Anyone have the BRP seat cover?

    I think the stock seat is pretty comfortable, but was thinking about adding the seat cover for a better look. I'd love feedback from anyone who has it on their :spyder:. Was it a PITA to install? Has it held up, or has it stretched/wrinkled over time? Do you like the look of it installed? Any...

    Robobrackets and Givi shield

    I recently switched to the Givi shield from the BRP sport touring shield for some additional wind protection and I really liked the look of the shield. However, at highway speeds, I still get too much noise and some turbulence at the top of my helmet. I only need a few inches of additional wind...

    NEW HOPE, PA. November 8 Sunday

    We saw a few, but don't know who.... We couldn't get there in time for the ride, but decided to head to New Hope anyway. We got there about noon, had lunch, and headed South on River Road to Washington's Crossing - What a beautiful day for a ride!:clap: We were really happy to see 4 other...

    Bike Night in Lansdale, Pa

    We were there! We made it there about 6 and left when the rain really started at about 9:15. Turnout was pretty good considering the weather - Didn't see any other Spyders out there though....... If you were there - sorry I missed you. I should also mention Saturday was my first chance to...

    Lansdale Bike Night

    My wife and I are planning to attend with a couple of friends on Harleys. You're almost in our backyard (<10 mins) - our daughter goes to WHS and I had the bike in the WMS parking lot two weeks ago. Motza just posted a comment in the General Discussion forum saying he'll be attending as well...

    Newbie Question re: Purge Valve

    I've been seeing threads about the purge valve being the potential cause of the gas smell and even the fires (I know this isn't confirmed). I've also come to understand that the valve is essentially a selenoid that opens and closes at some RPM level to vent something - guessing gas fumes but...

    Finally, after a great deal of help and advice from the members of this forum, I'm the proud owner of a :spyder:!!!!! :2thumbs: I picked up my yellow 08 SE5 on Saturday and I can honestly say it's even more fun than I imagined. I'm disappointed that I've only got 100 miles on her so far (work...
