• 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.

    jack points

    As you didn't state what year Spyder you have is it safe to assume 2010-2012. Yes the shocks have to be unloaded to adjust them.

    2015 Dash Gauges have new connectors

    Actually Joe the new connector is a good thing. One shouldn't use these wires to power other gauges because of the way it interfaces with the cluster. If one is going to add new gauge functions the should use an aux fuse block and hook it up per the directions of the new gauge. This is the...

    2014 Semi-automatic and oil

    Ron what I was trying to point out as you did about the BRP oil Spec has not changed for any of the Spyder Models from 2008 to present as bluenight 911 stated. The only difference between the 998 SE5 transmission and the 1330 SE6 transmission is how the clutch engages and disengaged engine...
