• 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.

    Any Yokohama rear tire users? Which?

    Being a fellow Minnesota spyder owner I recommend the Vredestein over the Yokohama due to our cooler climate spring and fall. Florida or Texas maybe for the Yokohama. Personally I'm running the General, but that wasn't one of your options. Good Luck, :thumbup: Bill

    Trying to decide if I want to start doing my own oil changes - what should I budget?

    A great deal of engines I've worked on over the years had water thermostats that opened at 180 degrees. If the engine is at operating temp, your oil is plenty warm enough for changing. "old school theory" :thumbup: Bill

    Rear Parking Brake Not Releasing on 2019 F3-S - is this the correct TSB?

    I didn't realize that Connecticut was that flat! Someday when you come back to get on your trike, it is NOT going to be exactly where you parked it. Guess the manual shift leaving it in gear works better than I anticipated! MHO :thumbup: Bill

    Paint issues on 2023 RT - poor paint/clear coat quality or just normal? Anyone else?

    Very soft paint with-out any clear coat as far as I believe. I've seen better quality finish on a metal scoop shovel! If I ever buy another Spyder, it will go to a body shop for top clear coats before it hits the roads. MHO :thumbup: Bill

    998cc 2015 ST won't start easily, but will finally - any ideas?

    My solution to the Bajaron Ultra sway-bar 'clunk'!

    For what its worth! I have the Ultra bar. I never tried the original Baja Ron bar. I weigh in at about 205 lbs., my better half is at around 185. 95% of our riding is 2-up. "I would NOT sell the Ultra bar back at 3 times the price I bought it for!" :thumbup: Bill
