• 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.

    Open Trailers for towing Spyders - what's the best suspension type? Experience, opinions, or are we just over-thinking this?

    I have the OHT3 with airbag driven deck. Lowers to ground level to drive up on. Has custom wheel locks and 4 corner rackets that are automatic. Nice fiberglass windshield for Spyder or two bikes. So light I pull it with a Prius.

    Time for brakes on my 2014 RT - any tips or recommendations?

    I’m trying a different pad this time, as I think the EBC pads grab more and create more friction so that they wear faster. I also noticed they rough up the rotor quickly. I ordered a carbon fiber LeFossi set for $75 front and rear, and I’ll review.

    Rear ACS/suspension on 2015 RT seems to have failed - anyone else? How did you address it?

    I've have both an RTL and RT. One with ACS - working fine, and one without ACS. I appreciate the direct no compressor connection and just rely on the airbag. If the RTL compressor fails, I will just do a direct connection and go around the compressor. I've never heard of an airbag failure...

    Desperately seeking a way to save and keep my 2014 frunk lid when I trade the Spyder in - any suggestions?

    May I ask you what your intentions are for the painted lid? Are you going to store or mount this lid? If your intent is to replace this lid, get any color lid and repaint it gray with an OEM gray color... should be close enough. There are rattle can companies and you could DIY.
