• 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.

    Let’s start a fad - passing Spider Rings (from Amazon) to other Spyders

    It's a motorcycle thing, and not exclusive to Harleys. And my Spyder has a lovely gremlin bell. :cool: I posted a picture of it in post #12 of this thread.

    Where is the AM/FM Radio Antenna on a 2026 RT?

    My 2024 Spyder RT Sea2Sky has a radio. There's a Radio Applet that you can bring up on the screen. Page 51 of the Operators Guide has: The controls for the radio are in the left hand control. I also read somewhere that the antenna is hidden up front.

    Open Trailers for towing Spyders - what's the best suspension type? Experience, opinions, or are we just over-thinking this?

    I would think one of the considerations is how you tie the Spyder down. If you're attaching the tie down straps to the Spyder's frame or handlebars then yes, I'd be worried about the trailer's suspension. But if you use tie down straps through the wheels then the Spyder's suspension will take...

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

    Apple CarPlay, at least with the latest software updates to my Spyder, has been very reliable. The only qualification is that you have to be riding somewhere that you can get a cell phone signal. And yes, I did go one place that was deep in a valley where I couldn't get a cell phone signal. Good...

    Any Mounting bracket and switched power tips for mounting a Garmin Zumo XT2 GPS?

    I had one like this on my 2024 Spyder RT S2S with a Garmin Zumo XT GPS before CAN-AM got Apple CarPlay to work. It is wired into the accessory power port to provide power for any GPS. https://www.slingmods.com/canam-spyder-rt-2020-up-handlebar-mount-12-volt-docking-station-with-usb-charge-ports...

    I've gone from ATGATT to H (just Helmet).

    Google seems to think some States exempt turban wearing Sikhs. Tennessee has tried to pass a similar law, but it failed passage.

    Any takers to Car wash your Spyder?

    Maybe in a touchless carwash, but not one with the spinning, flapping things that beat the dirt off.
