• 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.

What's this Whirring noise on my 2014 RT?

I'm sure this has been discussed, but I'm curious about the whirring noise on the 2014 with the 1330 motor when you turn the key on. It quits after a few seconds. Then after starting, I hear it again while the Spyder is operating. Hydraulic, air, what? And I suppose it's normal?
 
Makes sense

when you first turn the key on what you hear is the fuel pump

Thanks Cuz.

Makes sense on fuel injection. I just hadn't noticed the whirring noise after starting until yesterday. Of course, I just got the unit last Saturday and just rode about 250 miles yesterday. Just like my 2013, I'm having to get used to unfamiliar noises. So far, I love everything about the 2014 - they really improved.
 
WELL

I know they have talked about noisy fuel pumps on the 2014's, but all three of my Spyder's have made the same sound at Start-up. The entire computer system "BOOTS UP" when you turn on the key... Mike 👍
