• 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.

    Anyone interested in this Stinger trailer deal?

    Yeah, I've heard plenty of horror stories about FB Marketplace, but since this is about 2hrs from me, I would have driven out to look at it, but like said, I have decided not to go with a Stinger, just thought I'd post that in case someone else might be looking, That's why I decided not to go...

    My Jump Port installation

    Call me cheap, call me a lot of things, don't call me late for dinner! But since I already have the SAE connector to the battery so that I can put my battery tender on, I bought an extra SAE to battery connector that I figure I could use in a pinch if I ever needed to jump my Spyder. 30 years of...

    What portable air compressor/jump starter do you use when touring?

    For years I carried a Slime pump with a bottle of Slime and a plug kit on my Goldwing. When I got my Spyder 2yrs ago, I found the Fantik pump that Cruiserman was promoting (Goldwing You tube content) and got one that I now keep in my frunk. As I knock on wood, I have to say that through two...

    Anyone interested in this Stinger trailer deal?

    So let me start with I have no skin in this game, I was looking on FB Marketplace and seen a guy in Eau Claire WI who has one for sale.

    Has anyone used one of these trailers? Any doubts?

    U-HAUL now has a 3-ramp toy hauler trailer, it's a little over kill for a Spyder, but it has the ramps for a trike! https://www.uhaul.com/Trailers/16ft-Flatbed-Utility-Car-Trailer-Rental/TH/

    Warning when riding in Iowa - you might get caught up!

    I was out on a long ride Aug 23rd and stopped in Postville, IA at the Kwikstar. While standing next to my Spyder, a Red and Black 2024 RT LTD pulled up to a gas pump and the older gentleman rider got gas. His bike had the Name Bob on it, so after choking down my slice of pizza, I walked over to...

    Is there a better antennae for a 2023 Spyder RT Limited?

    I found they didn't screw in the radio antenna at all on my 2022 S2S, so I got lousy reception! Once screwed in, it helped, but I started using Bluetooth, streaming Pandora, and Amazon Music. It works much better that way.

    Is this 2013 BRP RT622 trailer for sale at $1,700 a SCAM?

    I'd ask for an address, tell them you are going to be riding through Atlanta and want to pick it up on the way through and see what they say. Let me also add, if it looks too good to be true, it probably is, there is no way they can sell you that trailer and ship it for $1700

    FYI - HCM Oil Filter Change

    Interesting that BUDS is not needed, I was at a Dealer open house recently where they pull the Tupperware off on the right side of the RT, but the Tech doing the Demo said when you do the HCM Filter, you need to connect to BUDS... BTW, the other thing they said was if you need the serial number...

    Is Running Diesel Oil in Your Spyder such a good idea?

    Having ridden Goldwing's for the past 30 yrs, there were guys on the different Wing Forums who talked about using The Shell Rotella oil without any issues, and how they saved money buying it over buying motorcycle oil. Some even found that since Goldwing's 1500 and 1800's used spin on oil...

    Sound Cameras will be installed in Montgomery County, Md.

    At least they are using a real sound monitor to measure, here in Winona MN it's up to the discretion of the police to decide what is too loud, So you could be riding a Spider or a Goldwing with stock exhaust and if the barney fife is having a bad day you could get a ticket for loud exhaust

    Spyder crash, Prayers for this family

    One thing I learned a long time ago is, even though YOU think you made eye contact with a driver, they didn't make eye contact with you. And as a former OTR Trucker, it's amazing how many people to hit you or almost hit you will say "I didn't see you"
