• 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.

    What price should I be asking for a 2014 RT Limited Seat & Backrest?

    It's the cost of shipping, that's the hard part of selling a seat. I had one to sell, the shipping was more than what I was asking for the seat! After a year, but I found some one local that wanted it!

    Do I assume the starter is dead or am I missing something?

    Sliding off floor lift (GAH!) - What do you do to keep your Spyder from sliding off the jack?

    Depending on what you're doing it's a balancing act, if you want to take the front up only you have to put it right in the center and as far forward as you can get it! Don't take one wheel off before you have jack stands under it, ask me how I know that!! If you want to lift the whole bike at...

    Apple CarPlay - the good, the bad, and the really ugly

    I know down in Tenn my wife and I were up in the foothills and my Garmin never stopped working, my wife's phone on the other hand would time out, and all I could base that problem on was that niether one of us had any cell service at all, and as soon as we did, it refreshed and was working fine...

    Apple CarPlay - the good, the bad, and the really ugly

    But it has to know where you are in the world, and without sat service, how would it do that? I update my maps all the time like you, but the system works off satellite location!

    New 2010 Spyder owner - First issue - Check engine light

    New 2010 Spyder owner - First issue - Check engine light

    I would try running a shot of Seafoam through it, and a good ride around the back roads! It may need a set of plugs and wires; have the MAP Sensor tubes ever been swapped out?

    Is there a 'Full Tank' Triangle? If so, where? '22 RT

    Do you have to be careful of the evap can on the newer bike as you did the older ones? I took the can off the older bike, is it an issue on the 1330's?

    New Uhaul trailer coming?

    Even if you make it up on the ramp. you want to watch the transition at the top when it flips to the deck! For the life of me why did they hang the shift actuator down below the bottom of the bike!!!! I made blocks to avoid the chance of hitting! When I get a chance, I'll get some pictures of my...

    This thread started in 2018, I hope it's fixed by now! 🙃

    I need the Right side Chrome 'wing molding' - any ideas on where to get it?

    That would be my go-to place! (y) You can try a salvage yard, but you will not know how good it is for sure 'til you get it in your hands! It may not be any better than what you have now!

    Apple CarPlay - the good, the bad, and the really ugly

    The biggest down fall of CarPlay is that it needs a cell tower to work! When you're in a gray area, you're up the creek without a paddle. Garmin works off satellites, it's hard to hide from them! That's my take on that! Maybe I am all wet, but I would go with the Garmin.

    Anyone have ceramic brake pads? Any experience with Traild ceramic pads?

    I would try a set of EBC's, and there are some neat tools to buy for cleaning rims!

    Anyone have ceramic brake pads? Any experience with Traild ceramic pads?

    Why ceramic, what do you think you're going to gain by that? If you go with too hard of a pad, you're just going to wear your rotors out with your pads faster, not to mention heat input and all of the things that go along with it!

    Apple CarPlay - the good, the bad, and the really ugly

    From what I have seen with my 2025 S2S, you would be better off dumping the Apple CarPlay, hooking your Garmin up, and going on with life! That whole system is in the weeds in my book! There is too much stuff going on in there, and it's dependent that the cable connection is clean and tight, and...

    Has anybody fitted Dual 5” Screens Instead of Analog Gauges to their Spyder? Any advice, suggestions, or concerns?

    Just unhook the gauges you have, and that info will go digital automatically on your dash/display! You can replace the gauges with filler plates or leave the old gauges there; I got the filler plates, looks great.

    Do I need to pull the whole box to properly fit this Airbox tube?

    It's hard to tell what's going on with that picture! Sorry!
