• 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.

    This has changed the Handling of the SPYDER completely... it's like a new bike!

    Cannot speak about older models but newer- 2020 touring models handle quite well from factory.

    2023 RT exhaust sounds tinny - is this normal?

    When I bought my 2020 RTL had a Akrapovic muffler put on it. When I traded for a 2022 F3L, I had the muffler taken off and put it on the new bike. I like the sound. Stock sounds like a small compact car rather than a bike.

    Was this a Fuel Indicator Reserve Notification?

    on vehicles there is a fuel vapor recovery system that takes the gas vapors after fueling through charcoal filter and into the manifold. If one fills tank too full, raw fuel can get into system and mess up the fuel-air metering.

    B.E.S.T. Warranty NOT warrantying the stupid side bag door handles that break anymore

    Was this a Fuel Indicator Reserve Notification?

    Word of caution on "topping" the fuel tank off is that raw fuel can get into the fuel evaporator system and cause engine issues not to mention messing up fuel relay system.

    Has anyone come up with a Device to hold RT lid open?

    Quick easy fix is a rubber small door stopper between front of lid and rear seat.

    Was this a Fuel Indicator Reserve Notification?

    As has been said, --- means you need to refuel very soon. Depends where you are traveling when to begin to refuel. Out West where distances are further apart between stations off the beaten path. or in locations of remote Canada and Alaska where when you are down to half a tank you start...

    Audio update, Wow!!!

    On recent five day trip I had my smart phone plugged in using the gps while listening to XM satellite music through the bike's speakers. the sound quality was exceptional and much better than if listening to a FM channel.

    Just finished installing my new Spyderpops KOTT Grille.

    One of the reasons that I switched from the RTL to the F3L is the front end design. I gave up some stowage space in the frunk but do not miss cleaning out radiator grilles from all the road debris.

    Ride feel - should I set-up for 2-up now or get used to solo first?

    I am confused by riders that are new to riding and especially to Spyders, that think that they need to start messing with suspension, shocks and tires before they really have enough seat time in. Can't speak about older versions but the newer ones(2020 and newer) are pretty good from factory for...

    Why buy an F3 rather than an RT?

    My first Spyder was a 2020 RT Limited. First impression was that now I am sitting on top of a bike and not down in it. Always had the feeling that bike wanted to throw me off due to that sensation. the handlebar was such that my riding position was like sitting straight up. I now have a...
