• 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.

    Many Thanks to Westside Powersports in Spokane

    I had never, ever seen a belt be off alignment like this. At this time, it’s logical to assume the belt alignment wasn’t done correctly.

    Many Thanks to Westside Powersports in Spokane

    It seems too often we drop to the lowest levels to complain and/or belittle Spyder dealers for various reasons. I too have had a few issues with poor or ugly service, but overwhelmingly the experiences have been quite the opposite. I prefer to express gratitude and thanks to dealers who help out...

    Zumo XT will not connect with Garmin Basecamp

    There are a number of routing programs available. There are also a number of threads on this forum about them. I have used myrouteapp for years and it’s great.

    Zumo XT will not connect with Garmin Basecamp

    Might it be suggested to stop using Basecamp and try a different routing program that works with Garmin, including the XT?

    10k mile-stone...

    Thanks for sharing your 10K odometer personal moments. I’ve done the same thing, but only since I started ryding Spyders and without the screeching stops ;). I was near the Wooden Boat Museum, NY, along the St. Lawrence River on my RS, in the Black Hills on my RT, and near the Bodie Island...

    What maps do you use?

    Having used many different routing platforms over the years, I found myrouteapp.com to be far superior in ease of use, versatility, formatting, quick transfer to the GPS, etc.. I’ve used it for many years.

    Zumo XT

    Switched to the Garmin XT last week. Although I haven’t had the time to play with a lot, I can say it is amazing in its clarity, features, ease of operation and the Wi-Fi and phone app capabilities are pretty cool. It mounted directly to the same swivel mount I had for the previous Zumo. (see...

    BajaRon or others that switched from a GS/RS to Ryker (900, not RE).

    My RS ryding was a long time ago, but I certainly remember the fun and adventures I had putting 30K miles on it. As Ron did, I modified the handlebars to alleviate my having to lean forward putting pressure on my palms and shoulders. I did have seal floorboards too. It was a super ryde. I had my...

    Which one is the best???

    None of the above. I’m particularly partial to 2 Brothers.

    87 gas

    I have used 87 almost all the time in an 09 RS, 12 RT, and 17 F3, with a cumulative mileage well over 100K with zero issues, whether hot, cold, prairie or mountains, didn’t matter.

    Saturday 5.9.20 trip

    I have had the pleasure of knowing and ryding with Keith many times over the years. He’s a great guy, has great friends, and knows the area and roads well. The rides are not only spectacular, but are incredible fun, at much more than a snail’s pace. I’m planning to make it to Maggie Valley...

    Keeping the rodents away...

    For years back on the prairie, I used this product in the house and garage. Packets were also placed in and around the tractors and equipment to keep the rodents away. It worked consistently. It has what I consider a very pleasant pine smell. I refreshed the supply every three months. I still...

    My tour across America 2021

    Hey, my friend, I’m saddened to hear of the loss of the loved one. You definitely ryde with a rowdy, spirited group group of Ladies and Gentlemen. In my Spyder life I’ve been blessed to romp around the Smokies with you guys, as well as travel over tens of thousands of miles around the USA and...

    Fuels for Spyders?

    I’m with AR Traveler on this post. I’ve ridden Spyders since 2009, an RS. I’ve had an RT and now an F3. I’ve ridden them collectively over 100K miles. The overwhelming majority of those miles were powered by 87, with 10% ethanol. I’ve never had an issue.

    Spyder Shipper

    I have used Uship for a Spyder, 4 wheelers and tractors. As said in an earlier post, it is a bid process and negotiable. In your bid specs you are able to set the parameters of the move, including a delivery day. All of the times I used Uship, delivery was made within 4 hours of the “window” I...
