• 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.

    Deer collision - safer on a Spyder? Thoughts? Or first-hand accounts?

    Yeah, my German Shepherd hit did $5525 damage to the trike. Lots of tupperware, right side fender, all that had to be painted to the Champagne color, and the right side radiator. Stop leak and I was able to finish the 1850 ride for Az to WA via the Northern Cal coast, Oregon coast and part of...

    Anyone know the paint code (gold) for a 2018 F3 Limited X Anniversary model Spyder?

    Just got the New Version V20.80 Firmware on my 2018 RT

    After many tries and a case with BRP this Spyder finally got updated. I requires the older USB cable from BUDS 2. They could not find one, however their BMW tech said try mine. And it worked. Ride Now in Chandler spent 16 or more hours trying to update it. Nash tried also, when they were doing...

    Probably a stupid idea - thinking I might go from a 2018 F3 Ltd to an RTL S2S - am I crazy and should just keep what I have?

    Hard to do on a F3 with your legs out in front of you.

    It's sort of, do you want all your weight on your butt, or do you not want to be able to carry some of your weight on your legs?

    Tried again to get display v020.80 installed - No joy

    Well, the fourth or fifth try, and they finally figured out the USB cable that comes with BUDS 3 does not work on a 2018 RT. They could not find an older BRP cable. One of the BMW techs had a USB cable and it worked.

    Anyone else got a Pool of Water in the Frunk? Any fixes?

    I would advise you to stop using drive thru car washes.

    1st Week on a Spyder

    Five years ago, I bought my first 2018 RTL at age 76. I learned fairly quickly that you do not steer a Spyder out on the open road, you just guide it along with gentle pressure on the off side handle bar or a gentle pull on the side you want to correct to. I get up to speed, set the CC, and...

    Has anyone used a Toyo PXTR1 91V Rear tyre? Thoughts, opinions?

    This General works well on the Spyder.

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Bought a second one again. Now I have two Asphalt Grey Spyders. Will not see it in person until late Spring, it was delivered to my son's home by the seller.

    Anyone know what these things on the front wheels are?

    The newest Spyder was delivered to son's home in Washington, awaiting my arrival in May 2026.

    Wait for new version of BRP GO compatible with Android for 10.25 inch display or get dedicated GPS?

    Garmin Zumo GPS's can handle the heat and are very readable in bright sunlight.

    Any thoughts about running Car Tires On The Rear?

    No tire shop would want to deal with replacing a rear Spyder tire or be qualified to be doing that. I have fitted two Spyders I owned with General Altimax tires. I will be doing another for a friend in the next couple weeks. And one this coming Summer on a new to me 2018 RTL with only 4200...

    Any reason to hold onto my F3-T's Catalytic Converter? Any idea of re-cycling value?

    ALWAYS keep any smog stuff you remove from a vehicle, as at some point you might be required to reinstall it.
