• 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.

    First Ride - First Impressions

    I had a chance to take the Spyder out for a few rides over last weekend. These are my first impressions: As has been said, it rides and handles "different". There is no other way to describe it. The closest thing I've ridden that is remotely similar is a sport quad. It's work to ride this...

    How to fit a Spyder to a guy that's 6'4"?

    I'm seriously interested in getting one of these, but I want to make sure I'll be comfortable and happy with it for years to come. From what I've read so far, the 1" bar riser and highway pegs are a good start. Is a taller windscreen really necessary? I ride some naked bikes, so I'm used to...
