• 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.

    Will the Ryker electronics freak out using Rear Brake only?

    right.. so it's not that it "can't" do it. It 100% can do it, but they dumb it down so much for the average rider. I've had a tire up on the ryker a couple times. both times doing a standing 180 turn at full throttle in sport mode. It really wasn't a huge deal and i turned out fine. If you are...

    Will the Ryker electronics freak out using Rear Brake only?

    I'd like to know who the test riders were and what their background is. I get that the system is in place for the average rider. But for those of us that know what we are doing there really needs to be a way to totally switch it off. can am shows off all these promo videos of the rykers doing...

    Will the Ryker electronics freak out using Rear Brake only?

    So I guess the answer is just more power to keep the wheel spinning. I think Can Am dropped the ball with the whole "it can drift" thing. It's way to conservative for riders like me.

    Will the Ryker electronics freak out using Rear Brake only?

    I'm playing with the idea of having the rear brake separate from the front wheels. Just wondering if the all the electronics would freak out or not. I'd probably setup some sort of manual lever for it. reason being I'm looking to possibly drift it more than you already can, and stopping the...

    Anyone actually installed Aprilia Engine Kits on 998 V-twin Spyder?

    Thank you for the insight. I'm just looking at different options, there doesn't seem to really be much advanced stuff out there for these spyders. From what I can tell their kits should drop in fine, but I need to get a hold of a local Aprilia shop and talk to them. See what they think. It's...

    Anyone actually installed Aprilia Engine Kits on 998 V-twin Spyder?

    easier and cheaper maybe. But the same motor we have makes 143 hp in the Aprilia RSV. I'm looking at the 1060 bore kit right now. Maybe cams too, but I think I really need to talk to someone who works on Aprilia's to really understand what I'm trying to do.

    Anyone actually installed Aprilia Engine Kits on 998 V-twin Spyder?

    Has anyone actually installed any engine kits from Aprilia on the 998 motor? It is the same motor and should work. I'm just wondering about tuning for it. How far can we go by swapping out the current parts with Aprilia parts before the ECU gets upset. I've done searching on the forums...

    2022 Can-Am On-Road Line Up

    I 100% agree. I have a 2013 RS and love it. They really need a performance driven Spyder in their lineup again.

    Interesting video

    Hey, thats me :) Yes I do love the spyder, but I think we can all agree it's not perfect and there are some things that could be done better. Even the newer spyders still have some of the same issues carried over from the older ones. I appreciate you guys checking out the video and your...

    Question on Spyder YouTube interest

    Thanks for the input. I use that camera because the audio is 100% reliable unlike the Gopro. I don't have time to reshoot my vlogs 2 or 3 times to get good audio. If I can find a decent chin mount camera with integrated audio I'll do it. You're right though, I think just doing what I'm doing...

    Question on Spyder YouTube interest

    If I had Ryker I would be over 1000 subs already. I don't have the money or time to invest into another machine. Rykers channels are blowing up everywhere and of course adding a female to the channel will always add views. The spyder group rides are pretty tame and I do those videos for the...

    Question on Spyder YouTube interest

    I know it's not everyones thing, which is why I'm stuck in this spot of being a younger spyder rider. I don't appeal to the typical spyder demo graphic. Also.. running a stop sign at full speed and doing a stop and slow go are two different things, but hey.. who am I right.

    Question on Spyder YouTube interest

    Unfortunately I don't work at a dealer like Shawn Smoak does. I don't have access to all different models of Spyders to do those type of how to videos. I guess I'll just keep doing my thing. It's a tough spot to be a younger spyder ryder trying to appeal to everyone.

    Question on Spyder YouTube interest

    Here is a link to the channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5xcyeY3tcVh8oaDl7EPjSA I'm a part of three different bike groups. The group ride videos seem to do really well. I've got a some how to videos coming up once I get the parts in. My adventure videos didn't do nearly as well...

    Question on Spyder YouTube interest

    So I have a question for my fellow Spyder Ryders. What sort of content would you be interested in from a Spyder Youtube channel? I'm a younger rider in my 30's so my channel seems to appeal to a younger demographic who ride two wheels. But I really want to start gaining the support of...

    Is Changing the rear sprocket possible?

    thats disappointing for something so simple. I love the spyder, but I feel like it's overly complex in some areas.

    Is Changing the rear sprocket possible?

    From all the research I've done so far has been dead ends. The last thing I see is that BRP hard coded the sprocket size in the ECU and changing it would cause issues. Has anyone been able to change the rear sprocket without issues?

    Motovlogging on Youtube

    I'm at a point in my Youtube channel that I'd really like to get more of the spyder community involved. I'm close to 500 subs and only a handful of those are other 3 wheeled riders. There are only a few of us that do strictly spyder videos and I'm one of them. One of things I've noticed as...
