• 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.

    Need to Adjust Seat Backwards after dealer visit - any hints on DIY?

    Thanks, Bruce. Yeah, I already tried loosening those 2 10mm pivot bolts with no success of wiggling the seat backwards at all. I didn't try removing the rear seat backrest, though, as I can easily access those 2 bolts from the back of the seat (where the passenger's bum would be). Maybe I'll try...

    Need to Adjust Seat Backwards after dealer visit - any hints on DIY?

    Had my 2016 Spyder RT Ltd since spanking new, and a couple of weeks ago the Limp Home Mode came on. Long story short, after 3 times of bringing the Spyder into my local dealer for service (yes, 3 times), there are now scuffs and gouges in the plastic cowling below the instrument cluster as well...

    2024 Models Are On the Can-Am Site

    I haven't been on here for quite a while. I saw the new white S2S in Ottawa, Canada. I think it looks beautiful. I would say "pearl / tooth enamel" would best describe what kind of white it is. I heard several years ago that BRP would offer an even larger engine than the current 1330, but, alas...

    Can-Am Backrest Compatibility

    Good day, everyone. Quick question - I have the BRP backrest installed on my '16 RT-Limited. Just wondering if anyone knows if this same backrest would be compatible and installable on a '20 RT-Limited. Cheers.

    2020 RT Limited?

    Going to keep my '16 RT Ltd until they start to put in an on-road version of either their 1503cc or 1630cc engines. I find the 1330 engine has good grunt at low-end speeds, but wimps out when you approach or try to exceed around 150 Km/Hr.

    Recommendations on who to buy LED headlights from.

    I'm ready to make a purchase for LED bulbs for both the headlights and foglights for my '16 Spyder RT Ltd. I do NOT intend on making this thread spiral out of control into an advertiser/distributor issue, but merely seek some feedback on who to buy the LED bulbs from. I live in Canada, yet...

    What is a "CE" model?

    Sounds legit to me. Makes sense-ish. You'd think the manufacturer would specify what the abbreviations mean somewhere in the book.. Thanks.

    What is a "CE" model?

    Looking through my official Can-Am paperback service manual for my '16 RT Ltd, I've noticed in the specifications at the back of the book in the Specifications section that there's some references to "CE models" and "Other models". In the RT specs, it states CE models, Other models, Japanese...

    2017 RT Ltd - Digital and Analogue (dial) Speedos reading different

    Although I've never experienced this issue (hopefully never), I've read elsewhere of 2 speculative causes. 1) As mentioned above, turn the ignition off and walk away with the key for a few minutes before attempting a restart. I didn't know the key has a prox chip in it, and I still have my...

    Sudden Drop in Fuel Mileage

    Thanks Everyone Thanks for all your ideas / suggestions, everyone. Last weekend I did have to replace the left-hand fog light bulb (what a pain in the a$$ that was). As it was the left-hand side, I did have the air intake in the way, so maybe I may have knocked something out of place while...

    Sudden Drop in Fuel Mileage

    Typical mileage on a full tank of fuel on my '16 RT Ltd is around 350+ Kilometers per full tank (about 220 Miles), regardless whether I run premium fuel or regular. I haven't checked to see if any codes have been stored, but during both days of this past weekend here in Ontario Canada, my...

    What Loud Horns are available for Spyders?

    Any suggestions on a "loud" horn for the Spyder (mine's an RT, but the model is irrelevant)? Earlier this year I removed the OEM horn and wired/installed the Wolo Bad Boy airhorn (via the relay). Yes, it IS louder than the OEM, but I personally think only marginally so. Any suggestions on...

    Upgrade of the Built-in GPS

    WOW.. Thanks. That DIY post is incredible. Thank you..!!! I like to tinker around with stuff, including files embedded within GPSs and stuff, but had no idea that I could install my own splash screen. Thanks again.
