• 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.

    Real gas and mileage

    I have found a gas station in south Georgia that sells real gas... meaning there is no Alcohol in the gas. We have been testing this non-alcohol gas in two of the spyders and the GL1800. I log mileage and amount when fueling so I have some numbers now. After clearing the small amount of near...

    It was great to saddle up and ride for a while. Weather was stunting with temperature at 80. :yes: I've been behind the power curve for a while and I'm wondering if there any after market sources for the sprockets and drive belts yet? Have a great week and ride 'em safely! Ken krb1945

    50 mph 5th gear roll on 08 SM vs 09 SE

    Nice weather here in south Georgia today, 74 degrees. A great day for a ride so we rode down to Bruesters for ice cream. On the way back I told my SO to do a 50 mph 5 gear roll on on my mark... standby "mark". Her 09 SE5 blew me away. So we did it a couple more times. Same thing blew me away...

    $69 Maserati SPYDER Chip60 Horsepower Increase 7 MPG Boost Custom ECU Chip Easy Installation www.GForceChips.com Anyone using this chip? Is it possible to get a 7 mpg mileage boost? Wouldn't a 60 HP power increase be pushing this 990 cc a wee bit tight? Ken krb1945

    Another motorcycleist down in TX

    I hope I have placed this in the correct forum. I tell my friends to "please ride 'em safely". And I have told my son-n-law the same thing many times. No matter how safe we try to be there is always someone out there not paying attention. My son-n-law was riding home from work about 6 pm...

    Need help understanding Robobrackets

    I'm looking at the mustad robo bracket. It appears at one point they say you mount them to your existing windshield and then add a second windshield in the front. Am I misunderstanding what they are saying? If so do their brackets mount in the existing spyder windshield mounting holes? Then you...
