• 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.

    Filing Federal Tax return question, again....

    Did you send your envelope "Certified Return Receipt Requested"? If you did you should have gotten your green return receipt that proves where/who/when it was delivered to. If you do not have the green receipt back yet you can still track it through the tracking number on the certified form...

    2020 RTL - Should the passenger audio and heated seats switch be illuminated?

    My 2021 RTL passenger audio control pad does not light up either… but the passenger heated seat and heated grip controls do.. I think it odd that both passenger control stations do not light up… Carla

    Old Habits die Hard

    I guess riding a shy-prone horse for so many years before 2-wheel, then 3-wheel bikes created a muscle memory I am thankful for. Makes your body “ready” to circumvent quick unexpected moves by the vehicle…like this Spyder RTL..various unseen road anomalies which, at speed, grab the Spyder’s...

    How long for break in & what Gas mileage should I expect after?

    I drive a 2021 RTL. Right now it has 6,491 miles. The dealer-supplied first tank of gas gave me 40mpg using ECO mode at interstate speeds. Since then it has settled to a consistent 37-38mpg using 93 octane in Eco mode…driving the speed limit wherever, with twisties, but not racing to push the...

    Is this a good deal? Want to buy in a few hours. Please help as I’m very novice

    This Spyder came up for sale a very short time after I bought a brand new 2021 RTL…. I would have snatched this one up in less than a heartbeat otherwise. I think the one you are looking at is MUCH over priced. The new models of 2020 and 2021 are nice machines.

    I have decided my 3rd biggest HATE is...

    If its just a fuel stop… with maybe a quick trip inside the store… I leave the modular helmet on… takes too much time to remove the glasses, take off the helmet, set it somewhere to not worry about it falling or theft, fuel the bike and whatever… then put it back on, put the glasses back on, get...

    Has anyone given their Spyder a "Name"???

    I don’t typically refer to my rides by name but I really liked the look of the 2021 Spyder RTL I bought …. thought she looked so good and kindof sexy, different from previous models of Spyders and the standard 3-wheeled trikes… I refer to her as SNAZZY !!

    How would you rate your Spyder Dealer?

    :yes::yes: Agree! Coyote Powersports and Rocky at Boerne, Texas are NUMBER ONE !! and thankfully only 46 miles from me in Kerrville! Even though the wretched, very long and drawn out road construction makes them difficult to access, their reputation continues to see them open and busy...

    Sticky For TIres

    Just want to say that I really like and appreciate the new tire sticky for the Spyder. THANK YOU!! The structured format is exactly what I have been looking for to more easily be able to find the information I need pertaining to my year and model of Spyder in order to purchase the right size...

    2021 RT Limited – first 1K miles – observations and questions

    My 2021 RTLtd with right at 6,000 miles: Has a significant clunk to reverse - even after good warmup. The fan comes on just as yours does. The heated seat performs exactly as yours… as well as the heated grips get quite hot and stay that way until I turn them off. I too want to change the tires...

    Shop time for no Reverse - The long wait is almost over!

    Maybe check Spyder junkyards or parted-out parts maybe on E-Bay?? Dang… this is miserable!

    Spyders passing HDs

    Only time we have ever been intentionally blocked on the road was by an older fellow on a bicycle. There were 3 of us and 4 of the bicycles. It was a narrow country backroad. We slowly approached the group and the first 3 bicyclists moved over to single line to let us pass. The lead...

    What's the one thing you think is Useless Junk on your Spyder?

    I 2nd that… but must admit that all my prior motorcycles had crummy horns also except for my 2008 Gold Wing… it actually had a GREAT horn.

    Well i didn't expect that

    I lowered the air pressure in the front tires to 18 cold to start on my 2021 RTLtd. …improved the handling tremendously here in the twisty Texas Hill Country. I have just over 5000 miles on the odo now with no complaints. But when the OEM Kenda tires wear out I will put on a set of tires that...
