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.

Have you ever been able to get it into reverse, or is it just suddenly not wanting to go into reverse?

Seems to be a common issue. I also have a 2024 STS and the same thing happened to me last month. It started by not engaging once out of 4-5 times and within a week it was a no go at all. The dealer changed the “reverse actuator switch” under warranty. Took a week including ordering the part.
On my 7th time in for reverse problem. Reverse actuator replacement did not fix problem. Hopefully for you it takes care of your problem. Been dealing with this since last year in June. Got bike in April.
My 2020 spyder RT had same issue plus the parking brake would not disengage either. My mechanic checked the reverse actuator, and noticed that the housing plastic plate was smashed and bent, preventing the actuator to work the way it is intended. It is fixed now.
