• 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.

    I just bought a new toy yesterday :)

    I'll never give up my 2-wheels... BMW 1250GS and Kawasaki KLX 300 I actually have more fun on the smaller KLX...

    Is an OEM backrest the best on a 2020 RT Limited

    I wear an Air Bag and/or a jacket with a proper back protector. I could not get the OEM backrest adjusted far enough back to get comfortable.

    Should I get a 2014 now, or wait and get a newer model? Any 'gotta have' features?

    I think I've purchased my last 5-6 vehicles between Christmas and New Years... Some awesome deals during this time!!

    There really are no alternatives to the Can Am reverse trikes

    I was one of the consultants in writing the User Manual with Bob when they opened in Snohomish.... enough said!

    Right blinker repeater on cluster not working, left blinker ok. All outer blinkers working fine. Any clues?

    Same here! I think the only fix would be a new Instrument Cluster....

    Put an ISCI Hand brake on my RTL - works very well.

    I put one on mine and posted about it. Using the hand/foot together makes it a lot easier. The lever is pretty large and you need a good grip, but it is just as powerful as the foot pedal if you have the grip strength. It's also great for cancelling the Cruise Control, or giving drivers behind...

    Doesn't mean it's not an option. There are plenty for sale...

    There really are no alternatives to the Can Am reverse trikes

    Then there is the Yamaha Niken and the Tilting Motor Works Trike conversions that lock when you come to a standstill so you don't have to hold it up at a Stoplight.

    Hope I'm not done riding my Spyder for the year?!

    One of the best things about being a 3-Wheel Instructor are the classes in the Snow!! In WA State, we teach students how to drift!! WA State says it's an evasive maneuver, as is "Flying a Side-Car"... Love it!!!

    Hope I'm not done riding my Spyder for the year?!

    I've ridden in 26 degrees with no problem. Heated gear is your friend - just like riding in 112 degree weather. There are things out there to make your riding a lot more comfortable. Just think what those snowmobile riders wear. Did you know there are heated helmets/visors now!!

    All 50 State's Motorcycle Laws - AMA Database link

    Great link for reference - though my State, WA, is incomplete. There are a lot more that I teach in my classes...

    Kenda Kanine front tires - Where’s the beef?

    I put the Kanines on all 3 wheels and took a VERY spirited ride to Leavenworth... about 220 miles roundtrip. I came back in a downpour... They worked perfectly. No need to look for car tires...

    Should I get a 2014 now, or wait and get a newer model? Any 'gotta have' features?

    Yeah, for me, I just didn't like the body style of the newer '20+ models. I definitely didn't want the first model of the 1330, since most times manufacturers are working the bugs out. I wanted a '16 - '18 and found the perfect mint specimen. Zero problems... I think I got a Unicorn...

    Test Drove A Goldwing Trike

    This is how most trike riders lose their life..... especially side-car riders. One wheel comes up and then you need to "counter steer". They keep "direct steering" and go into the oncoming lane!

    Buying a new helmet - who replaces them every 5 years per manufacturers spec??

    Here is my EPS liner from a Shoei Neotec after a crash. Still had TBI and Bilateral Retinal Tear/Detachment...

    Buying a new helmet - who replaces them every 5 years per manufacturers spec??

    I replace mine every 4-5 yrs. But in the interim, I replace all the padding (Shoei) every year. I had a bad crash in 2015 while wearing a Shoei Neotec. Shoei is the only helmet I'll wear today. I feel it saved my life, considering the damage it sustained. I currently have 3 Shoei Helmets; a...

    2025 Motorcycle of the Year

    Just like the new BMW 1300 GS/A bikes... butt ugly!!

    Kenda tires - I truly don't understand the hateful responses to Kenda tires. I have over 22,000 km on mine and they're only 50% worn.

    I like my junk... thanks for the warning!

    I've gone from ATGATT to H (just Helmet).

    But it's MY choice not to contribute to your family's GoFundMe for hospital/burial expenses. The older I get, the less empathy I have for riders who make bad choices. My wife has already had that knock at the door from Mr. Officer, telling her that I'm in the hospital. I know what she went through!

    I've gone from ATGATT to H (just Helmet).

    A car/truck can hit a Spyder just as well as a Motorcycle... Even though your/my confidence has increased riding a 3 wheel vehicle, my confidence has NOT increased trusting other drivers! ATGATT+ for me.....
