• 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.

    Need a Seat Strut with more lift - any suggestions?

    I see you have a 2019 Spyder … do you think this item would fit the heated seat for a 2021 RTLtd? I am not having a problem as yet but thought I might have it on hand just in case… Thanks.

    MPG oddity on 2021 RTL

    No problems with my 2021 RTLtd. I just stop, fill up with gas, pull to the side of the station to get out of other people's way, then reset Trip A and Trip B to zero. I have double-checked my mpg with the hand calculator against what the Spyder is telling me the mpg was ... sometimes might...

    Fun Christmas Eve Ride

    We did a really nice, relaxed 128 mile ride Christmas Eve in 80*, full sunshiney weather here in the Texas Hill Country. All little backroads..no traffic..stopped for a Mexican food lunch…GOOD day.

    2020 RTL BAJA Ron Sway Bar Vs Stock Vs Shocks - your experiences?

    I ride a 2021 Spyder RTL. I find the handling fine compared to older models I had extensively test-ridden. However, I did reduce the front tire pressures from the operator manual stated 20# down to 18. I find the Spyder to be a pleasure to drive at that front tire pressure. I weigh +/- 138...

    Wind? na just a breeze.

    One afternoon coming back into Midland, TX (west Texas] we got caught in a 70mph cross wind on our Kawasaki Voyager 1200’s. We were on I-20 trying to get past 18-wheelers that were leaning into our lane. The wind kept pushing us toward the center median barditch. We had CB radios and my...

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

    Overall I am pretty happy with my 2021 RTLtd Spyder for general riding, both in comfort and handling. I haven’t tried to use the BRP thanks to reading Spyderlover members comments..not really anything on it I would really use…sounds like it is above my pay-scale…LOL! Having said that I would...

    2021 Outside Temp Gauge Issue

    I have not had any negative issues with the clock on my 2021 RTLtd. It is quite accurate. As to the ambient temp gauge - today my ride partner and I compared readings (via SENA headsets) while on the fly... he is riding an air-cooled 2018 Indian Chieftain trike. The Indian read 86*, my Spyder...

    Alzheimer's - good news

    I read a lot of medical articles. I read this article carefully several times but could not find a reference to your statement…. Please point out where you read the cause of Alzheimers.. I have always been highly interested in finding if they have ever found an actual cause… just so I can be...

    Who is a former Goldwing rider?

    On the trike it is well-known in the trike community that you need to put pressure on the foot board opposite of the way you are turning. If turning left, put pressure on the right foot board and... turning right, put pressure on the left foot board. This works very well for both the driver...

    Who is a former Goldwing rider?

    You both will like it fine. I came off of a 2008 Gold Wing Motor Trike Adventure kit with Independent Rear Suspension, 4-1/2* rake. Loved it. HATED to let it go... hurt me deeply. That baby never failed me in any way. I had it for 6 years...so smooth...so powerful...so reliable... I can't...

    Where is a good place to attach a Guardian bell? 2021 RT Ltd

    On my 2021 RTL I hung it inside the frunk on the zipper pull that opens the panel to the battery… simply because it was a gift from a truly close friend and I wanted to keep it in nice condition and not lose it… I cherish our friendship. I was tired of seeing how nasty they get hanging on the...

    Sport vs eco off (normal) - is the throttle limited?

    Evidently I used the wrong words (Sport mode) in post #4 when I wrote about pushing the mode button to choose either ECO or something else. I found the “something else” to be “sportier” than ECO mode so erroneously dubbed it Sport mode. As others stated here I believe the 2021 RTLtd does not...

    Sport vs eco off (normal) - is the throttle limited?

    On my 2021 RTL I don’t know if you will ultimately go any faster but I do know throttle response is a lot more quick. I use Ecomode usually but 2 days ago on a ride I guess I bumped the mode button accidentally and got into sport mode. I did not know it until I started rolling. Was not...

    2021 Outside Temp Gauge Issue

    My 2021 RTL does the same… sometimes reads a little high as compared to the reported ambient temp… but so did my Gold Wing trike. Peter’s explanation sums it up nicely.
