• 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.

    FS: 2022 F3S with extras.

    I'm selling it for my buddy, who is selling it for his wife. She has probably ridden it maybe 350 of the total miles. The 3 of us guys have been riding Spyders together since 2015 with our wives. In 2021 they all decided they were going to form a female riding group, so the 3 of them got their...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Did a nice 110 mile ride Wednesday to be with my sister at the hospital while she had an out patient procedure. Supposed to be around 73-75 degrees here Saturday, but possible rain. Appears to be coming from and mostly to the West and North of us, so I am thinking about taking a ride down to...

    Any takers to Car wash your Spyder?

    I won't even take my convertible to the drive through car washes. Too much of a chance of things getting damaged and I am thinking that even the touch free ones might find places that the water can get in.

    It pays to buy quality gear

    That is the biggest issue that I have. My jackets fade after 3-5 years (normally that's 30-50k miles) of riding in the sun. That's when the wife says they look bad and badger me into buying something else.

    Forever mystified by Can Am's lack of style...

    You would definitely be dissappointed in other brands. The 2nd gen Vmax (2009-2020) gets one color per year, no choice, just one color per year. And the Suzuki Boulevard M109 has gone practically unchanged from 2006-current year. They used to give 3 colors and a Limited edition color, which...

    Starting the New Year right - picked up my new-to-me 2024 RT Limited!

    That's awesome! I did more miles on my Spyder this past year than ever before, all in one short stretch. I did 9,045 miles on my cross country tour. I really underestimated how many miles we were going to travel. I had figured 8-10k for the whole 48 State trip. We did only 35 States and were...

    Starting the New Year right - picked up my new-to-me 2024 RT Limited!

    Congrats! I think you will enjoy this more as the miles rack up. Those are a lot of mods for the first 150 miles of ownership. Enjoy.

    Your Weather News @ January 2026 Edition

    Wasn't too bad here Jan 1. Had temps around mid 50's and thought about getting a ride in. No one in my little circle wanted to ride so I took the car over to a local cruise in and grabbed a burger. Today it is going to be lower 60's and I might do a little ride to run some errands.

    We had 72° (a near record) on Christmas Day, 50° today, and supposed to be 71° tomorrow. I will be cleaning up the office today and getting out for a ride tomorrow. We had another ride, to pick up a 2020 RTL, over the past 2 weeks. This will be his first time out on the 3's, so we will take it...

    Your Weather News @ December Edition 2025

    It's supposed to be 72, 68, 51, & 69 starting on Christmas Eve with the 72 degree temp. For some reason, my weather app and 2 different TV stations have crazy forecasts for Friday, but all days are meant to be sunny or partly sunny. Family here on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. But Saturday...

    How Many Ride an RT Limited After The 5 years Of BRP Warranty Has Expired?

    They replaced one of mine with the upgraded cable (I think it is stainless steel). Guess I will have them do the other one soon. Right now, my tools, tire repair kit, and jump starter is locked in that saddle bag.

    How Many Ride an RT Limited After The 5 years Of BRP Warranty Has Expired?

    Everyone that I know that has a 2020 or newer RTL has had to replace at least one cable, handle, or both. This is definitely a problem that BRP should cover.
