• 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.

    Let’s Talk headsets

    Utah Pete - I have HJC CL-17 and the Freecom did not fit into it because there are no ear holes or side depressions for the speakers. I tried putting it nearer to the top of the helmet and it was painful when I put it on. My HJC 3/4 helmet worked fine. Jim

    I so Hate the cold - except for sking

    I live in Pa. and ride daily. I had a couple of days recently where the temperature reading on the Spyder was 100+ - up to 104 on one day. Will the Spyder resort to limp mode when there is excessive heat? If so, this is a good to know.

    Anyone Here Also Ride a Maxi-Scooter?

    I had a Honda Forza 300 I loved until I purchased the Spyder, now I do not miss it in the least. The Forza is a great bike, it ran great, was easy to park, I had no complaints. I just love my Spyder much more.
