• 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.

    No regrets Bob. We've done 15 cruises and seen some incredible places. It's our second favorite method of travel. The Spyder is our favorite now.

    Spyder Cruise Excusion

    Spyder Cruise Excursion Wife and I booked a cruise and found this in Saint Martin - http://www.sxmspyderrental.com/home.html :spyder2: Anyone done this before? Seems like an efficient way to get around the island so we might give it a try.

    Passenger Armrest

    I own the Show Chrome Accessories 41-159 Passenger Armrest. It was the first purchase for the RT and they have had many miles on them and my passenger. Attached to them are a cup holder and a mesh storage bag for each side.

    Lost a body panel. :-(

    Great advice from everyone as always. Calling the dealership today to get my warranty details. The grommets are all still in place, but I did notice they had a bit of grease or something on them. I assume the manufacturer or dealer does this. Windex, zip ties, lanyards, wires are all great...

    Lost a body panel. :-(

    It was a breezy day on Saturday. I guess that is an understatement! Cruising the highway enjoying a beautiful 46 mile ride to a friends house and when I got there I noticed the right side body panel was gone. The entire ride was head on into the constant wind and there were a couple wind gusts...

    Sink or Swim Adventure

    If you can get the 1330 then get it. I waited a year for a 1330 simply because of the maintenance. Regular oil changes and tires are expensive enough, I didn't want the burden on my checkbook.

    Question about power bridge adapters?

    I am doing some DIY wiring this winter :read: and wanted to know if someone can explain the different uses and locations for the power bridge adapters for the OEM harness. There are 2 pin, 3 pin, and 5 pin adapters available and I wanted to know where on the Spyder each of these different types...

    Can you

    I love the idea. Please keep us posted on how the leather wears after a few dozen fill-ups. In interested to see if a crease starts to form or if there is any stretching. Thanks for the idea. (lol sorry just realized this was an older post, so does anyone have anything new to report?)

    Camera on the helmet IS still the best! I will tell you why....

    Just wanted to post my opinion. The bike mount is still the option I prefer and I am actually pursuing options. I personally don't prefer the distractions of the driver and motorcycle in video. The audio recording can be done without the camera near the rider through the mic. This winter I...

    Go Pro Cameras

    I have a mount on each mirror. This enables me to mount for forward or backward video footage on right or left side of the Spyder. I edit with GoPro studio and for the more complicated edits I use Cyberlink PowerDirector. I own the Adobe Suite but Cyberlink's caching and preview works much...

    Attempting To Use iPhone While Riding

    I use the phone & siri all the time while commuting. Sena is the great device. If all your concerned with is pairing with the phone then that's all you need. If you want integration with all the other devices you will need the SMH10 & the cable that finless mentioned. Good luck.

    Dumb Question Regarding Spyder Rally's

    We actually get invited to come. I think it's my wife out going personality. It was a little awkward at first but then I realized that everyone is there for the same reason. No one cares, and the Spyder draws more of a crowd than the show bikes that are there. Lot's of questions and...

    adding lights to 2015 RT

    Hmm.. wondering if my base RT was somehow converted before I purchased it. I've never had an issue with night driving other than on coming drivers always flashing their high beams at me thinking I had my high beams active. On a clear night with a straight road I can see up to 1/4 mile on my...

    Thinking about a RT-S or Limited

    It was a little over a year ago I was doing the same as you. The wife and I were both excited. It had been 12+ years since I owned a motorcycle. 1) I took the motor cycle safety course and when passing it automatically gave my my license. Extremely happy with this decision. 2) I am a...

    What Type of Helmet Do You Wear?

    GMAX modular. During warm weather I take the lifted lid off and it's a functional half helmet with sun visor and full face shield. 2 screws and it's converted.
