• 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.

    Anyone run a Showchrome mudflap with General Altimax 215/60R15 rear tire?

    I have the Showchrome rear mudflap on our 2015 RT and I am beginning to think about replacing the rear tire (Kenda). I’d like to use the General Altimax 215/60R15, but I’m a bit concerning about it rubbing on the mudflap bolts because of the larger diameter of the Altimax verses the Kenda. I’m...

    Sounds like chirping birds at idle on 2015 RT - any ideas on why/what??

    You were correct in post 1665813. I’m at the dealers now and they said exactly what you said. All is good and thanks for your help. It’s appreciated very much. Greg

    Sounds like chirping birds at idle on 2015 RT - any ideas on why/what??

    I’m at the dealers now. Turns out that BertRemington was correct. It’s alternator noise when engine is at idle. If you rev it up at idle the noise goes away. Yes the front sprocket was already changed under the recall.

    Diesel engine oil in a gasoline engine? Check here.

    Thanks Bert. Because I’m a non mechanical person are you saying that it may be the alternator needing replaced?

    Sounds like chirping birds at idle on 2015 RT - any ideas on why/what??

    After searching and finding nothing, here’s my issue with my 2015 RT with 7,000 miles on it. When I stop I notice what sounds like birds chirping coming from the front end. The sound is there in gear or in neutral or in reverse. It doesn’t go away by reving the engine. I’m not at all...

    I’ve searched on this forum as well as google as well as the operating manual for the zumo but can’t find the answer so here I am. When I set a destination or even just ride showing the map, it keeps showing me restaurants which really clutters up the screen when you’re in a town. So my question...

    What is the best way of wearing glasses with a modular full face helmet?

    Helmet first then glasses. Even when I remove the helmet, if I remember, I remove glasses first, then helmet.

    Will Ultimate Passenger backrest interfere with ShowChrome rack/trunk opening?

    Thanks very much for your reply. It’s appreciated. With regards to a conventional trike, I haven’t ridden a gold wing trike but had the opportunity to take a Harley factory trike for a test ride. I much prefer the riding experience of the Spyder. The Harley sure looked and sounded nice though.

    Will Ultimate Passenger backrest interfere with ShowChrome rack/trunk opening?

    Thanks Peter, I appreciate your answer even though you may be suffering from forgettory lol. I’ve got all winter to decide anyway since fall has quickly descended on us here in Canada and we won’t have many riding days left before we see the white stuff.

    Will Ultimate Passenger backrest interfere with ShowChrome rack/trunk opening?

    I’ve searched without luck to find the answer to my question. We have a 2011 RT. My wife is saying that she wishes she had a bit more room in the back because it feels tighter back there than on a Goldwing. I see that Ultimate sells a passenger backrest and they say it increases the passenger...

    HELP What holds 2019 RT passenger backrest on?

    Thanks Mike. I hadn’t planned on using the backrest from the 2019 Limited but the stitching is white on the 2011 and black on the 2019 so it matches better. PLUS…… I now have the only 2011 Limited with no stereo, no passenger heated handles, no change on the fly rear suspension, etc, etc. lmao...

    Thanks to you DGoebel sending me the diagram, I figured it out. On the 2011 RT, the 2 bolts that secure the top trim piece are smaller than the 3 that bolt into the backrest. On the 2019 all 5 are the same size. I took one that secures the top trim piece and it worked on the backrest. I was...

    HELP What holds 2019 RT passenger backrest on?

    My 2011 is the same as your 2018. On the one that I bought (they said it’s 2019) there is nowhere for the floating nuts to go. It was obviously mounted on a Spyder at some point but definitely nowhere for floating nuts to insert. I’ll have to remove it tomorrow just to reconfirm it but I’m sure...
