• 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.

    Prepping for the ultimate riding season - have I missed anything?

    I ditched all that and put a trailer hitch on my spyder, hooked a camp trailer to it and took off. Snow? When we got to the snow, we checked into a hotel or motel with a covered parking lot and sat it out. The itinerary trips are a thing of the past now.

    Can't get it back into ECO Mode - am I missing a step, or is it dealer time?

    Did it work?

    If I were to Buy an ST, what OEM parts should I get up front in case BRP stops making them?

    Buy two, and keep one on hand as a source for parts.

    How do you control Rabbits (without shooting)?

    LOL, I've always had it in the back of my mind that I wanted to visit downunder. But now maybe I'll put it further on the back burner and focus a little more on Alaska. I've deterred and chased away bears, coyotes, mountain lions, and wolves from time to time on my place, but I don't think I'd...

    How do you control Rabbits (without shooting)?

    Well... a higher bunny proof fence, one they couldn't jump over would be my first suggestion. Beyond that, I'd invest in a pricey pellet rifle with a night vision scope. One that when you shoot it won't make a loud enough sound to draw any neighbor's attention, particularly at night. Then scoop...

    WTB: Can Am trailer

    I have 2 trailers. A Lee-sure Lite camp trailer, and a home built utility trailer made up from Harbor Freight components. Both tow well and function properly. I purchased a secondhand OEM Can Am hitch and trailer electrical assembly for my year Spyder from a seller on this site and had it...

    Can't get it back into ECO Mode - am I missing a step, or is it dealer time?

    ECO mode is some designer engineer's futile attempt to increase MPG, or simply create a selling point, I think, because it's nearly useless. Mine goes in and out (on/off) with a simple push of the switch. Occasionally, I've noticed that sometimes it doesn't change modes, and if you didn't notice...

    How do I get a 2014 RT's Stuck rear luggage trunk open? Any ideas appreciated.

    Most of us don't have clutch or brake cables anymore, but you can still buy a cable lube tool at M/C parts store. If you do, don't use WD40! It will eventually dry out and make things worse. Use an oil lube. Yes, hitting the lid at the latch with the heel of your hand may be enough to open the...

    What kind of navigation do you use on your Canyon, especially when you are out of cell phone service.

    I'm running a Galaxy Zfold that can open up into a 6"X5" screen, approximately. I have stereo, radio, phone, camera, FOBO, and intercom all running on it at the same time. The phone is held in a vibration free mount that is constantly powering the phone. On screen, my location is constantly...

    Any experience or ideas on Increasing Ground Clearance on the Canyon Models?

    Oh yeah! I remember those days. I worked at a local gas station near the high school. We'd place a matchbox on end in the center of the perfectly level gas island and see who could drive over it and knock it over. Few ever did because that was LOW! I'm guessing the Canyon carries more bragging...

    Any experience or ideas on Increasing Ground Clearance on the Canyon Models?

    I used to get a kick out of guys pulling into the parking area, unloading their "off road" machines along with their children's rides, and taking off for wherever carrying an ice chest full of food and drinks. Within 2 miles or an hour, whichever comes first, somebody is pushing their "off road"...

    Any experience or ideas on Increasing Ground Clearance on the Canyon Models?

    Yep, Ron, that's why you're in business. I've been with many guys who pack stuff they've never used. But if you only use it once to get you home, it was worth the trouble and the money. Admittedly, I've got stuff I've never used, but I've used them to help others get home, and that seems to make...
