• 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's the best way to get a spare key? Any suggestions?

    A locksmith can not program a replacement key for a 2014(?) or new Spyder RT. My in-laws bought a 2014, I picked the spare key from the dealer, took it to a locksmith to be cut, and back to dealer to program it to the remaining existing key. Loose both keys and the DESS module has to be...

    Up/Downshift Issues - I may have found the cause.

    I have PN in both feet thanks to Uncle Sam and AO in SE Asia, and could not hold up a two wheeler. However my USCG electronics training served me well all my working years.

    I found this pic from the 80's which leads to a tall tale.

    I wonder what happen to him when the USCG shutdown the Loran navigation station at Attu.

    Up/Downshift Issues - I may have found the cause.

    Old electronic tech's like us don't die early, we just short circuit once in a while. I still have a connector pin removal tool or two somewhere, if I could just remember where!

    Annoyingly, my '21 RTL will only cancel Cruise by touching the brake pedal or downshifting - are there any other ways?

    You will still have to push set, as resume speed is lost.

    Anyone in Northern Texas area installing Car Tires on Spyders?

    I am going to do my third rear for my in-law this fall, and correct the miss alignment of the valve stem when a new rear was installed on his NTH 2014 RT in 2018. It will get a General Altimax RT45. I have a torque wrench that goes to 250 lbs, and both 35mm socket and end wrench. And we will be...

    2024 RT L back at the dealer for the 9th time in 3 months!! How long until you give up?

    You talk about touring, therefore stick with a RTL. The Canyon solves a problem that does not exist, except maybe a larger Ryker.

    Annoyingly, my '21 RTL will only cancel Cruise by touching the brake pedal or downshifting - are there any other ways?

    This whole windshield up & down on the 2020+ models thing, along with the brake pedal position, has me wanting to stay with my 2018. I took my trike course on a brand new 2020 back in the Fall of 2020, so I do have experience with the brake pedal. I have some money I want to spend, just have not...

    Towing - To cover, or not to cover?

    I did not use chocks for the rear tire because of the backing over things issue. I used a milled Nylon cutting board to create a wider area for the rear tire to sit on. You can actually see the black rubber on the e-track where I tried to back out of wheel chocks behind the front tires. This was...

    Towing - To cover, or not to cover?

    Mine rides on a Primo trailer also. Hooker was trailered from Az to Wa and back twice and now Hookie is going to take that role now that Hooker was sold. Never covered. Here's a couple of things I learned along the way. The Spyder does not like to back over the Erickson wheel chocks behind...
