• 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.

    2026 S2S transmission failure - Anyone else having similar issues?

    Ok, I am the first to admit I don't know a lot about Spyders. But if the clutch is slipping that much, wouldn't there be damage to the clutch ?

    2026 S2S transmission failure - Anyone else having similar issues?

    Towed twice in the first 1000 miles ! I wouldn't be yelling at the dealer, but I would be raising bloody hell with BRP. They have three options. Replace the bike. Money back. Or talk to my lawyer. Of course I have a short fuse, takes a bit to get it lit, but then stand back.

    Your Weather News @ August 2026

    Wow what a weekend. Sunday wasn't too bad, got in a "Therapy" ride in the morning before it got too sticky. Saturday it was a different story. The kids across the street were having an "Engagement Party". Suddenly it got dark, the winds came up (our hanging plants were sideways) and the sky let...

    Can't re-install Ryker's left footpeg - anyone have info/ideas?

    Ok I am not real good at explaining things, but here goes. First take the slider clamp (the small hooked part) and push it up and over the frame rail from behind; You do not have to remove the panel (it will flex enough for the part to go through); Then push the caliper slider up (the bigger...

    Reminds me watching guys go into panic mode when their motorcycle would not start. Only to find the Kill switch turned OFF:D

    My Uncle was hurt in this 2026 RTL Crash!

    So sorry to hear about your uncle. As pegasus said the family needs a good attorney now, just to deal with the insurance company. Hope the police upgrade any charges to the car driver.

    Short gal needs a mounting peg on a Ryker Rally - any advice on how/where to mount one?

    Whittiford, what model Ryker do have? Some come with the Max- mount, some don't. Makes it easier to mount things, like passenger seat and luggage. You planning long or shot trips, solo or passenger.

    Random thought for the day

    I need one. Wife would like one for work, but they might frown on it.

    The left one is all stock parts. If you look at a Can-Am parts manual, it shows how it bolts together. Not hard to do, if I can figure it out anyone can.:D If you want a right side one too, you change to a right side footpeg ( needs some grinding to fit) all the other parts are the same. Raven\Bruce

    Too hot to ride, or maybe I’m just getting old

    Maybe you should look at the post by @BGetz about his uncle's crash? You might rethink things. Humidity gets to me, makes it hard to breath. Years ago I was at some desert races in July and was ok. To be honest though, I not sure how I would do now.

    Having a blast, but have you noticed these Spyders Take an Effort To Ride?!

    When I stopped comparing the Ryker to my bikes, things got better. Just like when I stopped comparing my XR Sportster to the Buell and stopped comparing the Buell to the KTM supermoto. They are all the same, but different.

    Weather is cooler here, but the wildfire smoke is awful. Sky is grey and all you smell is smoke. Yesterday, Toronto (80 miles East of us) had the worst air quality in the world. No riding for a while.:confused:
