• 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.

    Wish I had not gone with a Vredestien Tire

    I had a similar problem with rain vision when I had my Zumo mounted on top of the dash cowl. When I moved it to the handlebars, the airflow greatly improved my vision.

    Anyone found or come up with something to keep the contents in those annoying side load saddle bags?

    https://www.allterraindepot.com/products/3pc-lid-net-set-41-156 I installed these at the leading edge of the box, not on the door. It keeps 'stuff' from falling out. No drilling, per se. I used self-tapping screws.

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

    I'm always ATGATT on my rides (2 or 3) :cool:. BUT, with the Spyder on a quick run (3 miles) to the store and back, I sometimes only wear the helmet, jacket, & gloves with jeans & sneakers :eek:.

    Newbie just got my Spyder - what's the cheapest/best option for putting a rear seat back rest on my 2022 base RT?

    FWIW, The LinQ rack is a multi-purpose base for several add-ons. I switch between a Shad top case with a backrest pad, a Rotopax gas container, or just a flat base for carrying bulk items on my '20 RT Base. Note, my avatar pic has the Rotopax for the long tours.

    Changed my Spark plugs/HCM filter/oil and filter/fuel filter - Shifts better now!

    Were you able to find a tear-down procedure or video?

    RT Muffler needs repair at flared end - any thoughts or sources on repair pipes with flares?

    That's the plan. Thanks for the ideas from everyone!

    RT Muffler needs repair at flared end - any thoughts or sources on repair pipes with flares?

    My 2020 RT muffler wore through under the exhaust clamp. I've tried a layer of soda can (AL) to patch the slit, but that burned thru. A new muffler is obscenely expensive, so I'm thinking of cutting off the end and welding in a new flared pipe. Any thoughts or sources for a short 'repair pipe'...

    I HATE Vapor recovery (ECO) gasoline pump nozzles! Is this just "my issue" only? Anyone else? What do you do to avoid this?

    2025 RT Ltd in need of 1st Service - How much!?!?

    Maybe $75. for parts/oil so $300 labor. How many hours did they quote for the job? Labor ain't cheap!

    After some True Can-Am insight - will I be making a huge mistake buying the RTL or F3?

    Agree that Can Am dealers are hit & miss. The HD and Honda dealers are everywhere. That said, I've been thrashing a 2020 RT for +40k miles. The RT has never been back to the dealer. Granted, there are others here that have multiple problems and are quick to inform us of their grief. All...

    I'm guessing you missed the sarcasm.

    Why not tell the caller to hang up and have a 'trained' agent call back? :unsure:

    Pulse and Origin fire sale...

    The one person I know who owns an electric motorcycle (Victory) hasn't ridden it in the 3 years I've known him. When he rides 2 wheels, he's running gasoline!

    Spyder downshifting when throttle backed off 3rd thru 6th no matter the speed - anyone else? Any suggestions?

    This may sound odd but check your battery connections. Strange gremlins appear if not solid & clean.
