• 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.

    What is a good way of Talking To my Passenger - helmets or add-ons?

    I originally had Cardo's, changed to Sena's because of forum recommendations...Wish I'd stayed with the Cardo's...Thing I don't like about the Sena's is the delay when standing and talking when at a fuel stop...You can hear your passenger talking face to face before it comes thru the radios...So...

    Our first Spyder was a 08 GS manual SM 5 speed...BRP had a factory recall for the DPS, all units were replaced...They had some with gear position sensor problems, that was a easy fix with a sensor replacement...Most had oil in the air box issues, again this was an easy fix with several options...

    Got any ideas on where to Hide a key?

    I for one also keep a spare key outside ALL my vehicles and a house spare key outside our home...There is nothing more stupid feeling than being locked out of your vehicle at the car wash or highway rest area because your dog stepped on the lock rocker switch...BEEN THERE, DONE THAT...larryd

    There have been some purge valve problems on the 1330 RT's especially around the 2014 year models...You could try plugging the purge valve hose and just letting the gas tank cap loose for a short ride...Just make sure the gas tank is not to full...

    Got any ideas on where to Hide a key?

    I have s spare key zip tied fast under the drivers seat...I do NOT need a key to unlock and raise the seat...My drivers seat has a super strong magnet holding it closed...This magnet idea also eliminated the need for a emergency release cable if the key lock cable system fails...larryd

    Anyone replaced shocks with anything besides Elka? 09 RS

    If I remember correctly there was a cheap and easy up grade on the 08/09 GS Spyders that many of us did...We replaced the factory GS shocks with the 2010 thru 2012 RT front shocks...They were easy and cheap to come by because the early RT owners were switching to Elkas...
