• 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 some ideas on how to mount gauge.

    I am going to install a afr gauge on my Spyder and would like some ideas on how and where to mount the gauge.I have a 2008 RS.Also it looks as if the only place to weld in the bung for the o2 sensor is opposite the stock sensor or possibly on the Hindle exhaust pipe in front of the muffler.

    Has anyone purchased the BUDS software?

    I noticed on another thread that ivanlee said he can hook-up to the BUDS system via the internet so I did a search and found you can purchase the software and it is not too unreasonable compared to the other upgrades I have done to my Spyder.I guess my real question is if you had the Buds...

    Brake fluid,open can

    I added a small amount of brake fluid last winter when I had intermitent brake failure message due to level being a tad low.I am now getting the same intermitent message again.The question is can I use the fluid from the can I bought last year or is this a no-no as I read on the can?

    What would you do?

    Just picked up my daughters car up from the repair shop last night for a tune-up due to a service engine light coming on.They said it could come on again due to knock sensor being bad but this was a cheaper fix for now since it is an older car she doesn't want to put alot of money into it.I...

    Red foglight?

    While following a co-worker to work the other morning he told me my right foglight was changing colors from white to red and blue.I didn't think much of it at the time because it looks fine when the Spyder is sitting still but I noticed it myself in the reflection on the truck in front of me on...

    Second update, 12000 mile service

    I had my Spyder in for the DPS recall and 12000 mile service and updates about a month and a half ago.They also replaced my exhaust gaskets,and plugs.Looking at the plugs they replaced I was running a little rich and I figured this was due to my juicebox settings and the fact that it was still...

    Salt and corrosion.

    I would be interested in hearing some thoughts on riding in the winter with all the salt on the roads.Here in MD. they put so much down that when the roads get dry you are riding thru a "dust cloud".I don't mind riding this time of year but am reluctant due to the corrosion from the salt.Is it...

    Air/fuel gauge

    I see Aerocharger has a wideband oxygen sensor and air/fuel gauge for 216 bucks.Do you guys think this would be worth using to assist with my juicebox settings or should I just K.I.S.S and go with seat of the pants and checking the plugs?

    Thank you BRP....

    Lamont and all the contributors to this website.I was one of the :spyder2:owners who had problems with extreme backfiring in hot weather after the update.I came to the conclusion that my :spyder2:was running too lean after the update and reading many of the posts. I broke down and bought the...
