• 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.

    My Uncle was hurt in this 2026 RTL Crash!

    🙏 Amen to that. Hope they put that 'distracted driver' under the jail. After they pay, of course.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    I had my first 'tupperware' removal/re-installation lesson today: hooked up a couple brakelight flasher modules. Overall, I give myself a C. Get to do it again as soon as the light for the top of the rear trunk arrives. Mebbe I'll be smoother then. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. Anyhoo, that is...

    Yeah, winter in TX is just about perfect for open air rides. Except for the odd ice and snow, we got it good down here weatherwise. And spring is like a gift from God when the bluebonnets and paintbrush are blooming. Thanks for the well wishes and right back at ya.

    Yeah, the previous owner was... religious... about getting the recalls done. ;)

    It's official! I'm a SpyderLover.

    I'm good on the tires until I start using it more frequently. Which, because it's getting too stinking hot, will be fall-ish. The rear tire is new, the fronts were recently replaced. It had 15k on the odometer, so yeah, low mileage. As I mentioned, I'm a happy camper. Saved myself about $20k by...

    Thanks, Deanna. I'm awaiting some Farkling material, as I write. :)

    It's official! I'm a SpyderLover.

    Picked up a preowned 2018 RTL this past Friday in Houston and drove it home to College Station TX. My third trike. The stable consists of said 2018 RTL, a Polaris Slingshot, and a HP Velotechnik Scorpion FS26 (human-powered with e-assist). I'm a happy camper. Now I'm looking forward to what...

    How noticeable is the Engine heat: F3 vs RT?

    TX requires a $7.50 'inspection program replacement fee' at renewal time. Other'n that, good to go.

    How noticeable is the Engine heat: F3 vs RT?

    That's what I thought. Apparently, enough people aren't concerned with the possiblities to stop that mod. Guess ya just got to decide what's more important.

    How noticeable is the Engine heat: F3 vs RT?

    Are there any regulatory/warranty issues to consider when removing the catalytic converter, depending on jurisdiction?

    How noticeable is the Engine heat: F3 vs RT?

    Well, as I already drive a 'heater' (Slingshot), I doubt adding another trike (RT/F3) will be much of a surprise heat wise. I've been asked 'if you already have a Slingshot, why do you want a Spyder?' My answer is 'it ain't the same'...

    Yeah, shouldn't have a problem with finding space for my Kindle. :)

    How noticeable is the Engine heat: F3 vs RT?

    Which is not a bad thing in the winter. At least what passes for winter down here in TX

    How noticeable is the Engine heat: F3 vs RT?

    Agreed. It's early June here in TX and my Slingshot is starting to sit in the garage more of the day than not. Summer riding... it is what it is.
