• 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.

    Can Am Spyders Resale value isn't great...

    I have the same thoughts - spare parts.

    Can Am Spyders Resale value isn't great...

    I have been monitoring the resale value of Spyders and Motorcycles in general on FB Market Place and Craigslist... I don’t think I’m gonna see too much of a “Rate of Return “ if I decide to sell it. But, after saying that, the fun factor has been worth it.

    BUDS 3 has arrived!

    Apparently, BUDS 3 is now required to be able to connect to the 2026 models - see the Smoaks latest You Tube Video.

    I just bought a new toy yesterday :)

    With all the motorcycle accidents you’ve seen in your career, you’re back on two wheels. I’ve been thinking of the same thing... live large.

    Buying new 2023 RTL from dealer… any concerns from it sitting that long?

    My thought would be to replace the battery, oil, filters, and any software updates. I think you are on the right track.

    Has anyone heard any rumors about a new 1600 engine for 2027 Spyders?

    If they do release something like this, how long would the REAR TIRE last?

    Kenda tires - I truly don't understand the hateful responses to Kenda tires. I have over 22,000 km on mine and they're only 50% worn.

    10-26-2025 I Replaced the front tires on my 2019 F3L from Vredesteins to the Kanines. After a 20 mile ride, I’m happy with the Kanines, in fact I found them to be quieter on the concrete than the Vredesteins. Dunno why the negative press, but I’ve no regrets. Of course, just my opinion. Cheers!

    Kenda Kanine front tires - Where’s the beef?

    Beautiful area to ride….

    Kenda Kanine front tires - Where’s the beef?

    Perfect tire for the "Tail of the Dragon"... or the "Back of the Dragon". Head for the hills.

    Kenda Kanine front tires - Where’s the beef?

    Can’t get the Vredestein size anymore. I currently own the Vredesteins. Yes, a great tire.

    Kenda Kanine front tires - Where’s the beef?

    Looking to replace my front tires on my 2019 F3L with Kenda Kanines P165/55R15 What’s your experience with them? I am specifically looking what the opinion of the owners of the aftermarket Kenda Kanines P165/55R15 tires. I know the original Kenda Tires were for poop. Update: I’ve ordered a set...

    I'm going a different route on my next set of front tires - trying these IOTA EVT (Standard's) instead!

    Keep us informed on your opinion of your tire choice. I was considering the Kanines for the front, but, your experience with them was not stellar. TIL later….
