• 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.

    Your Weather News @ December Edition 2025

    Here in East Texas the weather is best described as "unsettled". We have sun and 70°F today. Dropping to 28° Sunday night and back to 70° by Wednesday. If a front comes in from Canada, the air is dry and cold; if it comes up from the Gulf, it is wet and warm; in between, it is just foggy!

    Having Apple CarPlay problems with iPhone 17 - anyone had success with the 2024/25 dash and an Apple 17? Issue Resolved Woo Hoo

    I had errands to do today so I tested my theory about the orientation of the USB C end. I had four stops and connected the cord with the end in regular orientation, reverse orientation, regular, reverse. The fault was consistent and repeatable. If the null hypothesis for my test was that...

    Well, that is a horse of a different color. What you are saying is exactly what I was thinking (after a little thinking) but I hadn't been able to test that theory yet. I will go ahead and do my little experiment because well - science!

    Having Apple CarPlay problems with iPhone 17 - anyone had success with the 2024/25 dash and an Apple 17? Issue Resolved Woo Hoo

    I checked my phone and VPN is also not connected. However, I may have resolution and it does not make any sense. I rode over to my dealer today to pick their brains on this issue. I was still using the short cable with a 90 degree USB C connector. ACP reset a half dozen times on my trip across...

    Having Apple CarPlay problems with iPhone 17 - anyone had success with the 2024/25 dash and an Apple 17? Issue Resolved Woo Hoo

    I am using a 1.5' braided cable that is "supposed" to support high speed data as well as charging and is specifically marketed for ACP. It also has a 90 degree USB C connector which is convenient in the confines of the glovebox. I have also used an Optimate 4 battery maintainer since I drove it...

    Having Apple CarPlay problems with iPhone 17 - anyone had success with the 2024/25 dash and an Apple 17? Issue Resolved Woo Hoo

    I have been using Apple Carplay with great success on my 2025 Canyon with my iPhone 14. However, last week I took delivery of an iPhone 17 and that is when the problems started. The phone and my headset paired to the Canyon just like the 14 did. I turned on my headset, started the Canyon and...

    What is your plan for Replacement batteries for the Canyon?

    Maybe I am living in denial but I haven't thought about battery replacement for my Canyon yet. I did add a fused pigtail to the battery the day I bought it (mid April) and have used an Optimate maintainer whenever it is parked at home. To tell you the truth I hadn't even noticed it was only a...

    Any recommendations on a Trickle charge set up for a Canyon?

    I have been using an Optimate 4 maintainer on my Canyon Standard since I bought it in April. Because the battery is under the seat it was very easy to hook the SAE pigtail lead directly to the battery and route it out under the frame. I used a zip tie to adjust the length so only a couple...

    What kind of Canyon Rear Tire Life are you seeing? What Replacement Options are there?

    I currently have 5600 miles on my Canyon. My rear tire still has 8/32's of tread depth across all three grooves. That being said, my Ryker Rally, with a similar (aggressive design) rear tire, was down to the rain wear indicators and I replaced it at 6,700 miles.

    2025 Motorcycle of the Year

    Love it or hate it, the Canyon has riders talking about it. Compared to other manufacturers (including Can Am) that make minor changes in color or features from year to year (or none at all), the Canyon is something completely different. When the rest of the world was going into battle with...
