• 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.

    Why won't my Spyder trans Auto upshift?

    Thanks for the reply. You asked what I did that was so unusual? Nothing that I would consider unusual, or was aware of. FWIW: This is my first experience with a Can Am, or any type of 3-wheeled vehicle (other than a tricycle during my VERY early youth). Having never ridden a Can Am before (I've...

    Why won't my Spyder trans Auto upshift?

    After buying this 2011 RT in attempts to feel safer about riding with the missus on the pillion (over 60 years of 2-wheel 2-up riding, latest being a Goldwing), I discovered my purchase came with a hidden flaw in that the brake warning lamp illuminated as I unloaded it from the trailer...

    Shout out to Steve's Cycles and Off Road, in Mesa, AZ

    After searching this forum, I noticed several similar experiences re: the service (or lack of same) @ the PHX area Ride Now locations, and lucked upon someone recommending a shop in the SE Valley of central AZ. I contacted Steves Used Cycles, in Mesa, AZ where the service rep, Will, listened to...

    Welcome, ob1jeeper

    Thanks... Recently picked up my first Spyder, a 2011 RT. Has a Brake failure code that the Ride Now Dealer in PHX, has apparently been unable to figure out after a month and a couple different sessions of tossing parts at it... Sigh... Hoping to find some guidance on what may be wrong...
