• 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.

    Just Installed mine... I installed Evoluzione's O2 Modifier today, to enrich air-gas mixture, after having installed Hindle exhaust and KewlMetal air-filter arrangement some time ago. Have had no time to test results as it is now night and it is raining. Will surely do it tomorrow. I wonder...

    DPS Replacement- Letter to Owners

    Same here... :agree: I am in the same position here. Wondering if I can do the exchange with detailed instructions, provided that there will be no need to connect the SE5 to a BUDS outlet to upgrade software. Lamont or anybody can guess...? :dontknow: Saludos, Pilo

    se5 auto trouble

    If my 2009 SE5, for some reason, stalls (very very seldom...) in gear, I simply press on the brake pedal and restart it. It is a safety feature that, I assume, is also common in 2010 models... Saludos, Pilo

    Bought a Food Thermometer Today

    Gas tank... It will be interesting to know temperatures inside the gas tank and of the gasoline itself, after a warm day ride. I am sure the results will surprise a few of us... :yikes: Saludos, Pilo

    FIRE!!!

    Here is a pic that I took a while ago on the right side of my SE5 after I performed the canisterectomy. The gas filter outlet connection always slips out like that, even though I push it back towards the filter from time to time. It stays in that position because it its held in place by the...

    Drive belt tension

    It is still happening in the border towns and nearby cities. It gets smuggled into Colombia for a huge profit, and it is sold to riders and drivers at prices lower than those posted in Colombia. The government is trying hard to control that sumuggling in the border areas, with limited success...

    Drive belt tension

    Indeed... I agree that chavez is an evil creature, and is pushing this country into communism and into oblivion as well... I came to this country 30+ years ago when it had a bright and promising future; that is not the case now, not anymore. :yikes: I am planning to move back to my country...

    Drive belt tension

    Venezuela I am in Venezuela, and there is only one BRP dealership about 500 miles from where I live, and they don't carry the Spyder line. I bought mine in USA and had it imported into Venezuela, along with some filters and spark plugs; just basic maintenance items. I have to assume that...

    Drive belt tension

    Sweden Dealerships...? I am not sure that there will be such a tool in a Sweden dealer, especially taking in consideration the price of the tool and the quantity of Spyders in the country. Bought my Krikit II for less than US$15 and taught my mechanic how to use it on my SE5, since he has the...

    Kewmetal Air intake installed

    I installed mine some time ago to kill two birds with one stone: 1.- To get rid of the oil-in-the-airbox problem, as it was getting worse by the day, leaking down on the hot engine parts and smoking... 2.- To gain easy access to the front cylinder spark-plug and upper parts of the engine (IMHO...
