• 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.

    2023 vs 2024-26 Spyder RTL - Worth it?

    I have that year and color and I will tell you that it is going to show all dirt and dust that is flying in the air! And the only other thing I can say is that I do not know what they're using for plastic's these days, but it scratches very easily, drives me crazy!! It is a great color, very...

    Is my Air bag leveling? Any way to make it more noticeable when adjusting the ride height?

    And does it ever need air that much? You lose more checking it than it loses over the year! Just a small burp at that volume makes a huge difference, I always go maybe 15-20 over what I wish to have, that way if I am slow at taking the pump off, I'll be where I want.

    2023 vs 2024-26 Spyder RTL - Worth it?

    If you got the coin to go the latest and greatest that's what I would do, especially if you're not going to do your own wrenching! They all have their high and low points; you just have to adapt and adjust! Good Luck and have fun, ride safe!:cool:

    Rear brake caliper piston will not fully retract any ideas? Or just rebuild &/or replace?

    Did you ever get it fixed?

    Is my Air bag leveling? Any way to make it more noticeable when adjusting the ride height?

    Trust me Guys, if your pump was not working, you would know!!! Your ride quality will tank!!! They don't have a very good shock back there in the rear, and without the air bag helping, it will be banging on the frame at every bump in the road!

    Is my Air bag leveling? Any way to make it more noticeable when adjusting the ride height?

    Quite frankly, the auto system in my book is just another thing to worry about, the manual system some models use is just as good and has a lot fewer moving parts to break. Once you find the right air pressure that fits your riding style, you don't have to worry about it, set it and forget it! I...

    Is my Air bag leveling? Any way to make it more noticeable when adjusting the ride height?

    Unless you have real good ears, or had your head stuffed in the rear fender you will not hear the pump, but you should feel it go up or down when in gear and brake off! When your pump leaves the chat, sometimes you can hear it hammering down there, depending how it decides to leave you! If it...

    Engine Trouble - intermittently won't start! Any ideas on what to look for?

    It may be a little snappier on the throttle; mileage, I am not one of those types to check my mileage at each stop, I just adjust to my gas gauge. You will hear a lot more throttle body noise, which made me remember the days when we used to flip the tops on our air cleaners over, because we...

    Canyon Front Tires Rubbing the Fenders

    Ya, that fender issue seems to me that they don't have the bends on the mounting bars that run from the bike to the fender bent in the right way, a little tweak up and down in the right spots would give you more clearance! They are trying to leave a low clearance fit, too tight for my liking...

    Engine Trouble - intermittently won't start! Any ideas on what to look for?

    Oh, by all means, if you have the tools I would in a heartbeat! I just couldn't see putting that air box back in the machine, and it gives you so much more room to work in the motor area, not to mention it will breathe better!!

    Engine Trouble - intermittently won't start! Any ideas on what to look for?

    If I had the air box out like you have it out, I would call Ron up and see if his shop has got an air box delete kit - it's worth every penny you'll have to pay for it! You will be able to throw that air box away and you'll have all kinds of room to work on your bike anytime you want. I did it...

    Old Gold Wing rider considering a 2012 RT need help finding a fair value for it and advice.

    I would say like some above had said, call your dealership and see if they work on a 2012, unless you do your own wrenching. And I would also say that if it's a 2012 with that number of miles, which isn't hardly broke in yet, would be worth $6-8000 range! I owned a 2012 and loved it, that was a...

    Where to find the RT-L Air filter - it's not where my Owner's Manual suggests!

    Good thing my bride isn't in this conversation!!! She's always telling me to go right and pointing left! 🤣 🤣 ;)

    Taking a trip to windshield-land - what do you recommend?

    I would get one with a rolled lip cross the top I think it would shed water better than the stock setup! When I drive in the rain it rolls up the screen and right in my eye's, no matter how I have it adjusted!

    Anyone else have these Smoked LED Tail Lights for an F3-S? Any ideas to stop the hyper-blinking?

    Good to know, if a Sling Mods item didn't work on my bike, I would tell them about it! Because they advertise their products are plug and play, maybe they would give you a fix for them?
