• 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.

    Any recommendations on a Trickle charge set up for a Canyon?

    I've been using these on all my vehicle and equipment batteries for decades. I often get 10 years of life from AGM batteries, so they appear to work well. https://www.northerntool.com/products/batteryminder-plus-battery-charger-trickle-charger-desulfator-12-volt-1-amp-model-12117tc-167981

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    LOL. That tire has thousands of miles left in it. 🤣

    Learning to ride this bike: my progress so far

    My first little moment of panic was when I test rode my F3S-SM6. The seller showed me the start sequence and the reverse switch, and I started backing out of his driveway. As I got to the street, I pulled in the clutch and reached for a front brake lever, as I rolled right out into the street...

    Is it possible that BRP Corporate records on the Sprocket Recall have not been updated?

    That seems really steep, especially with high mileage. I bought my 2015 F3S a year ago for $8k. 9,600 miles.

    Any input on the Optimal angle of trailer ramps for loading a Spyder?

    All the ramp door trailers I've seen have the spring assist cables as standard. Even an aluminum trailer door such as mine would be quite heavy to lift without that assist.

    Any input on the Optimal angle of trailer ramps for loading a Spyder?

    I would HIGHLY recommend buying a trailer with a beaver-tail and a drop-down ramp door rather than trying to use separate ramps. The door is a fairly low angle, and if you still have clearance issues a longer extension is easily added. Fumbling around with separate ramps will quickly get old...

    Disability Plates - Texas only allows 1 plate per Operator! Is the Law the same in your State? What's Your Opinion?

    VA is the same. I can only get the one placard. It's like the disabled aren't supposed to own more than one car. 🤬 I only use the HC spots if there are no other reasonable parking spots, but I am forever getting somewhere and finding my placard is in one of the other vehicles. It's very...

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

    That wouldn't make any sense. The Rotax ACE 1330 is smooth, reliable and efficient. They could add another 50hp to that motor's output without any real downside, so no need for a new motor.

    Does a first service/oil change at 500 miles sound "normal" for a 2024 RTL

    You can't see the particles that could damage the engine. The only way to know for sure is an oil analysis.

    Anyone out there balance your own Ryker wheels? If so, how?

    From the looks of them, they should fit on a standard automotive wheel balancer. For my F3S, I had to turn a smaller cone to fit the small center hole. And I bought a motorcycle wheel adapter for the rear wheel.

    2016 Spyder F3 hard starting when hot.

    I'd replace the relay that feeds the starter solenoid first. It's cheap and easy, and if the solenoid isn't getting a strong trigger signal it could cause your symptom.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Thanks, Peter. I wasn't aware it was a custom seat.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Can't you return it for a refund? Any reputable business should have a reasonable return policy.
