• 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.

    I had some issues with the small pile of Apple cables I had that worked with my iPhone, and after testing them all I found two that worked most of the time. I did post about it after the testing. I have since changed to using a cable from Belkin that has a braided exterior sheath. I've also...

    FedEx is the worst!!!

    A while back I had someone deliver a box from Chewy.com to front porch. I don't remember if it was UPS or FedEx. It was the right street name but not the right house number. I contacted Chewy about it, and they said I could keep it and they'd ship a replacement to the person who'd ordered it...

    What year RT or F3 rear shock will fit my '15 RS

    I found this CAN-AM part number online for the 2015 RS rear shock: 706001110 A search for that part number says it fits a variety of 2013, 2014, 2015 models, and also the 2016 Spyder ST. Nothing newer. Online it's US $122. https://www.canamoemparts.com/oemparts/p/can_am/706001110/shock-absorber

    Google says that the Garmin 665 supports Bluetooth and can stream your music to a bluetooth headset. I installed a SENA 3S Plus boom Microphone Kit in my helmet, and have it bluetooth connected to my Spyder so that I can hear the Apple CarPlay navigation directions. It supports three separate...
