• 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.

    Anyone with a 2024 or newer (large screen display) installed a Carpuride and Have sound?

    Thanks. I bought the PDF version and noticed the manual had no mention of a 3.5mm plug. Not the first time google's AI is wrong, but wanted to ask and make sure others had not found one hidden. I did find a workaround within Carpuride where I think I have what I need. Will have to see if...

    Anyone with a 2024 or newer (large screen display) installed a Carpuride and Have sound?

    Sounds like you already bought a headset, but there is a "dongle" that you can buy that fools the bike into thinking a headset is attached. It is talked about here: . Can Ams implementation is questionable at best, I had a 2019, and honestly the system is not much better than the old BRP...

    Anyone with a 2024 or newer (large screen display) installed a Carpuride and Have sound?

    There are bikes that have Android Auto (Goldwing, some Harleys) and AA is no different than using carplay in practice. Can Am selected not to implement AA, there is no technical reason whatsoever.

    Anyone with a 2024 or newer (large screen display) installed a Carpuride and Have sound?

    Has anyone been able to install a Carpuride or similar device onto a 2024 or newer Spyder with the new large display and been able to get sound through the bike system? I tried bluetooth pairing with the bike (both as a phone and headset), with no luck. I tried a USB bluetooth dongle as well...

    Installing Rear view/backup camera - what wire & where to trigger it?

    For anyone with a 2024 Spyder RT, this camera works like a charm, and can be mounted easily right below the license plate frame on the flat surface horizontal to the ground. Looks OEM. I tried two other brand cameras, and neither would provide signal. Installed by you, it will run under $50...

    New Update Nov 30 '24 - anyone updated their '24 RT? What does it do?

    Thanks, really helps. I am waiting for that camera to come tommorrow, I had one of another brand, but for some reason it would not display, just shows the blue box with gridlines. I am hoping that camera is bad, but if not I will close the bike up with the new camera mounted until I get...

    New Update Nov 30 '24 - anyone updated their '24 RT? What does it do?

    Did you use one of the wedge spacers that come with the camera, or is that with just the camera flat against the area below the tag? If you used a wedge, do you remember which one and was it to pitch the camera up or down for better coverage? Thanks.

    Could this be Wireless CarPlay for the Canyon?

    I've used similar devices (AAWireless) on two motorcycles (Harley, Goldwing) and it worked flawlessly. Have not tried on my Spyder as I am an Android user, and Can Am refuses to support Android Auto. Certainly worth a try IMO.

    Apple Carplay - the good, the bad, and the really ugly

    Still works better than the Spyder implmentation of Android Auto! Can Am has never been know for their software, bet that is where the issue is.

    Installing Rear view/backup camera - what wire & where to trigger it?

    The camera is available from BRP at https://can-am-shop.brp.com/on-road/us/en/camera-backup-kit-can-am-219401199.html. It is $249, but if you have a 2024 Spyder you also need the rear fender from a 2025. Those run something like $230 on BRP parts sites. People have had luck with aftermarket...

    Installing Rear view/backup camera - what wire & where to trigger it?

    I have a Carpuride 702 on order, but to make up for the lack of phone mirroring on a 2024 motorcycle. I know the Can Am does plugged Carplay, but where is wireless AA? Hoping to get a camera that is integrated to the core bike though, in case BRP ever gets into the 2020s with their system...

    Thanks @Ages, exactly what I needed. I was able to do a screen capture that shows it well. Appreciate the help.

    Installing Rear view/backup camera - what wire & where to trigger it?

    Thanks for the reply. I am considering using a flush mount aftermarket camera vice the Can Am camera that requires a new fender. A couple of people have verified aftermarket cameras work, and at a fraction of the cost. The issue becomes their mounting location. The flush mounts are about as big...

    Installing Rear view/backup camera - what wire & where to trigger it?

    Could someone who has a 2025 Spyder RT (Limited or S2S) post a picture of the rear fender showing where the backup camera hole is? It does not have to have the camera installed, just show where the blank is for the camera on the rear fender. It could be a 2024 that has had the rear fender...
