• 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.

    Is it OK to run a Kenda KR20 rear with the original front Kendas?

    Bit narrower and bit taller. It will bring your speedo to +-1 mph. Plus, it will last you at least 2X as long. You'll wrestle more with the bead/spoons on a car tire :) You run about 18# in rear car tire. I have the General on my RT S2S and really like it. New car tires will be mounted up front...

    Is it OK to run a Kenda KR20 rear with the original front Kendas?

    Are you R&R the rear tire yourself? If so, order a General Altimax 215/60R15 and have that mounted on. The Kanine won't last much longer than the OEM Kenda. Just my .02 :)

    First ride after adding seat gel hoping for more comfort, but nope, no change! What to do? Anybody made theirs better?

    I stand corrected. I looked back on my receipt, and it shows the price code of S-1 for the driver's seat only.

    Has anyone lowered a 2020+ RT seat?

    Hey Quickdraw, I had a Laam seat on my F3S and liked it quite a bit. He was the first one I contacted when I decided to upgrade my RT seat. He had very little photos of RT/RTL conversions, and when I asked him about it, his reply was that he hasn't done many of them because RT/RTL owners seem...

    Polaris sells Indian Motorcycle

    I was selling Victory motorcycles at a large multi brand dealership when Polaris pulled the plug. They sent emails to the dealerships on a Sunday night, to be read Monday morning, informing them of the decision. Victory's were a more reliable bike than Indian.

    Does anybody use a GPS Tracking device for monitoring their Spyder's location?

    I have an apple air tag stashed away somewhere in my Spyder. That works well for me.

    Anyone running PPA wheels with aftermarket car tires?

    I always balance my front tires, even with the Centramatics.

    Anyone running PPA wheels with aftermarket car tires?

    Looking like the only "sure thing" with PPA wheels on my RT S2S might be the 155/60R15 option. As pointed out to me my Knizar, in addition to my washers shimming/flat profile screws, I also have Centramatics that push out the wheels a touch. Still waiting on word from PPA re: offset specs.

    Will the Canyon front shocks fit on a 2021 RT?

    Baby steps Mikey. The current F3 platform is only 11 years old 😆

    Anyone running PPA wheels with aftermarket car tires?

    I sent a note in to PPA last evening for that info Peter. Must be some difference in fender specs as Baja Ron has experienced with OEM wheels. It might boil down to trying out the Conti 155/60 tires. Max rim width for those tires are 5.5". We shall see....

    Buying a new helmet - who replaces them every 5 years per manufacturers spec??

    But, warranties don't start until the date of purchase.

    First ride after adding seat gel hoping for more comfort, but nope, no change! What to do? Anybody made theirs better?

    S-4 My seat was: $540 Vinyl $45 H-D Suspension $20 retain heat $75 return shipping ----------------------- $680 total Doing it over again, I'd do leather seat insert as the vinyl can sometimes be a bit slick on twisty roads. Also due to build structure and heavy duty suspension, it raised the...

    Anyone running PPA wheels with aftermarket car tires?

    Hey all, I am currently running a 165/55 set of front Kanines on my PPA wheels. These have no clearance/fitment issues on my 2022 RT S2S. PPA wheels are 5.5" wide versus 5" width on OEM wheels. I can say that a PPA wheel and165/60 Vredestein had no clearance issues on my 2019 F3S. They did...

    20,000 miles and still have OEM front tires

    As being reminded by Knizer, my past Vredesteins were fitted to PPA wheels. PPA wheels are 5.5" wide, while OEM RT wheels are 5" wide. That could explain things a bit clearer? Yet, I had no clearance issues with PPA/Vredestein on the 2019 F3S. Fitment issues could be wheel related? :( ** I'll...

    Some pix/info on $20 ebay handguards

    I will use as is. Here in Wisconsin, my riding season will basically be over in about 5 weeks, or when salt hits the roads. I'll wear light gloves to go along with my heated grips. They are not very big, and their main intent is to just deflect some air off my finger tips. I have bigger...

    Some pix/info on $20 ebay handguards

    Yeah. The Storm would certainly be more effective, but they're HUGE. I likely would have gotten the black/black VPS plastics, but they would have been $140 with braces. Then I'd likely have remorse over not getting the carbon fiber guards. They would have been $300! I'll try my $21 guards first. :)
