• 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.

    The new XT2/3 uses Garmin Tread app to make routes. Much easier than basecamp

    Anyone else notice the number of low mileage used Spyders on Marketplace? Any ideas why?

    The Spyder tends to be sold to mid aged to older aged riders. They come from 2 wheels when they start to be unstable to hold up the weight anymore. So those age groups then are more inclined to have minor health problems that need to be taken care of from time to time. And also, these age groups...

    How to unplug this Yaw Rate Sensor connector?

    That gray tab springing towards inside has to be pushed out to release lock tab. So use your finger or a screwdriver to push it out, then push the connector back. It doesn't seem like there is one on the other side. There's a gray piece on the top side too, that might have to slide. Maybe look...

    Mysterious drive belt adjustment change

    Yah, that's about laying everything on the floor prone to get the reading on top side best as possible in middle of belt. Practice makes perfect. Hey, do it again if it's bumped. Hey, do it again for attempting to achieve same reading

    Getting a Buzz in 1st gear, goes away when Parking brake on - any suggestions?

    Yep it's your automatic self leveling air pump. When in 1st gear will activate, probably park brake will stop it. It's doing its job, go ride!!

    Mysterious drive belt adjustment change

    190 kricket lifted is on upper end. I have 2015 RTL and set 165 wheel on ground. That helps keep tension against the rear axle adjusters. Has less vibes, and I don't even use a dampener. Been at that setting for 40,000 miles

    A couple of days at the Tail of the Dragon

    There are lots of different clubs that do their rides there. Motorcycle, Mustang, Camaro, Convertible... The middle of the week or a non weekend in October is best. Because of the leaves turning color, things will be busy. There's a lot of good sightseeing and riding all over area. I've been...

    My F3S tire is showing wear after only 2000 miles.

    The Kenda rear tire has weak plys. No matter the pressure, it will balloon center and wear much faster. Next time run a car tire, much better construction to keep ballooning to minimum. Much talk on forum, just search...

    What did you do to/with your Spyder today?

    That's in my county where I grew up in Ohio!! I've also been to (now the 2nd longest bridge in USA) Windsor-Cornish Bridge on border of VT/NH This bridge was named for the County Engineer who helped preserve many covered bridges in the County. The bridge was built in sections on the river...

    RTL - brake pad replacement intervals. Just replaced my pads at 21,000 miles. Is this a fair mileage?

    I had to do a quick stop from about 45mph to make an on ramp. 2 up riding compressed the suspension enough that the bump skid hit! Now that's about a 4" drop!

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

    That is certainly true. I rode Tail of the Dragon, 318 curves in 11 miles. I was sweating at the end. It was summer and takes more effort plus you throw in concentration and your sweating. Not complaining but it's the way it is. And I was solo doing spirited riding, that takes work!!

    2025 Can Am Spyder RT Limited - Power Steering not working! Do they have to ACTIVATE this? What else needs activating?

    Haven't heard of that happening, nothing should have to be done separate to activate power steering. Watch out for this dealership, they make up answers. But Kenda tires can easily be built out of balance. Maybe they were not properly spun balanced/ The front tires are actually not attached in...
