Just finished swapping out batteries on 2018 RTL (if you have fat hands like me, get a skinny friend to help) and was surprised to see my radio station presets were still there and I had nothing to...
This made me think of how helpless our passengers must feel when we decide to go a little crazy sometimes!
Best bike I ever owned! That bike was perfection and always drew a crowd, no other bike at that time came close to looking like it either. Sad day when I had to sell it, but I had back surgery and it...
I think most Harley guys really believe that noise equals horsepower! Even after I got my Valkyrie (1520cc 6 cylinder) Harley guys would actually come up and try to race me? I got so sick of laughing...
Agree, good thing you took the before you put it back together picture!
I have an ATV I rarely ride at night, but I know the lights work because the previous owner showed me everything worked. Well, I finally needed them the other night and nothing! OK, night was ruined...
Perfect advice! It took a mirror and light just to see the slots. All they had to do was put a little more of a hook on the tab that fits in. The bracket should be able to just hang there - I ended...
Perfect, just what I needed! It is a lot easier to see on the F3, but at least I know where to look.
I had a hard time getting my fat hands into the small space to get the battery out. After I pulled out the battery the top bracket fell and I'm not sure how it goes back; if you look at the second...
You would think all that vibration would get rid of that!
Is it easy to figure out what to do once you get in there? Just wondering what tools I need and what needs to be taken off.
Yes, the original, I should have mentioned that! That's why I am asking because it actually still is good but I don't want to take a chance one more year :)
I am looking at replacing the battery on my 2018 RTL soon. Looking for suggestions on what battery to get; I am not ready for a lithium but wonder if there are any other upgrades over the original?...
I wouldn't be riding it in the cold weather, just storing it. Or will that still do damage?
Thinking about getting a lithium battery for my 2018 Spyder RTL. Has anyone had experience storing it in a cold climate? I contacted NOCO (the battery jetfixer bought) and they said: The storage and...
I feel your pain! I have an 18 Spyder that was just a little too much since I am older I don't do as many long rides. I tried out a Ryker and bought it that day! After riding it for a month straight...
Totally agree with this, just one thing to add. Not sure what a 2014 is worth, but whatever it is, is it worth that much to keep it? It might be a nice change of pace from your newfound passion.
If you watch the video in the first minute they explain that Android decided that they didn't want their system available on cycles (must be a safety concern.) I highly doubt that the BRP Spyders is...
Surprised at the somewhat negative comments considering all the complaints about BRP GO. I think they are going in the right direction, but I agree certainly not a game changer - at least not enough...
It took them long enough!

Same thing. It shows up in compatible apps and has an option to download, but I already have it! Even tried deleting and reinstalling with no luck.
Your comparisons were right on! I have an 18 RTL Spyder I bought for touring. Unfortunately 2 of my destinations passed away and I found the Spyder just too much for short rides. I bought a 2021...
I gave up last year on taking the Spyder in for sprocket recall because it sounded like they had no idea what they are doing! My appointment this year was today, for the heck of it I thought I would...
I had a 75 Suzuki GT380. Cool bike at the time, I was very proud of the digital gear readout! Unfortunately the first ride home included a very long push; although I was young and knew everything - I...
I need to find friends like you! I feel the exact same way.
Sounds good to me! I am always known for taking "longcuts" and that isn't always appreciated. And unless I am really in a hurry I won't take freeways because they are just too boring of a ride and...
Love this topic because I thought I was the only one! Never enjoyed riding in a group because there was usually a destination, and I would see a scenic road or an area I have never been before and...
I read a lot of these tips before I got my spyder, but swithcing over to 3 wheels after riding 2 takes some time! And as far as the snowmobile goes I have never driven one.
Great thread! I started out wondering if I made a mistake going with 3 wheels since the bike was so twitchy and it felt like learning how to ride all over again. I was constantly thinking and...
Maybe they did! They keep coming back :2thumbs:
