• 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.

    NHTSA Campaign 26V575000 - 2025-2026 Spyder RT, F3, & Canyon freezing cluster fix issued

    Just finished the update. The download worked fine with just having the Spyder connected to the Battery Tender Jr, but when I got to the Install step, the button to start the install didn't work. Once I started the engine, the install started and completed. It did ask me to restart the Spyder...

    Anyone know the latest software version for a 24 RTL

    My 2024 Spyder RT has the ability to connect to a Wifi network and download updates to the bike. I don't know if the Spyder F3s have the same abilities. Check your Operators Guide.

    Going Down Memory Lane; Show Us Your First Motorbikes & Your Current Spyder

    My first bike was a 1982 Yamaha Seca XJ550 that I bought in 1984. Bright red, and yes, I had a red helmet. One of our friends group owned the local Yamaha shop and sold it to me for a very good price. Even though it was a 1982 model, it was brand new still in the crate. I sold it when I moved...

    I've been charged extra (over MSRP) for Panels - dealer says none are included! Is this correct?

    The problem with that sentence is the word "standard". According to the CAN-AM website the Ryker comes in black. Any panels of another color cost extra.

    New Accessory converts wired CarPlay to wireless CarPlay

    There's been a few other posts about wireless adapters for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Since I'm an Apple iPhone user and plug my phone into the USB port in the glove box I have no use for something like that.

    Any hints/help for Installing a Garmin XT3 Zumo on a Spyder?

    I added a powered docking station to my 2024 Spyder RT Sea 2 Sky that I bought from Slingmods.com. It was originally so I could mount and power a Garmin Zumo XT to the handlebars. The listing says it works on 2026 Spyder RTs...

    Going to Maggie Valley October 11-15 - glad to meet up & ride/break bread with anyone in the area.

    Sounds like fun. That's about 4 hours from where I am, so I would have to come for at least a couple of days. Unfortunately I already have a commitment that week.
