• 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.

    Yakima to Stevenson

    Left Yakima around 10:30 am today and headed down Hwy 97 South. Stopped in Goldendale, had a doughnut and coffee. Went on down to the Columbia River, staying on the Wa. side, Hwy 14. Got to Stevenson and pulled into what used to be a Chevron Station that's now changing over to Sinclair gas. The...

    I Killed My Battery - left it on a tender... New battery awaiting collection!

    I ride my Spyder to Pro Caliber in Vancover WA from Yakima WA. I ask for Shawn to work on it when I make the appointment. It's a good ride to enjoy on the way there and back.

    How Long did BRP take to contact you after your Spyder purchase, if at all??

    Well, as far as me and the wife can remember, I've bought 3 Spyders, and I haven't received anything from BRP saying thanks for buying your Spyders. Like others, nothing from BRP. I havent lost any sleep over it.

    To Wenatchee and back.

    It was a really good ride. Barely any wind in a couple of places, but all in all, no wind, just warm - 76 degrees I think it was. Our next ride will be down and out behind Goldendale. Then along the Columbia River and back up the Horse Heaven Hills. Next week I think.

    To Wenatchee and back.

    Was good weather again so we took another ride. Me and the wife got on my RTL. Left Yakima went up the Yakima River Canyon to Ellensburg. Then North up Hwy 97 to the cut off to either go to Leavenworth or Wenatchee. Turned right and headed to Wenatchee. Stopped in Cashmere, ate a burger, then on...

    Well, that didn't take long... First fault on my new 2023 RTL! Air Suspension Fault.

    I'll take a guess that its going to be the battery is not very good. Since it's a leftover '22, the battery is a cheap battery that BRP started using. I changed out that crappy Chinese battery not long after after I got my '22 RTL. Before, it didn't turn over as quickly as the Yuasa battery they...

    Seat latch won't open - any new ideas?

    As far as I know the key turns and pulls the cable to the seat. No electrical at all to unlock the seat. Some people unhook the cable to the seat or frunk, and put a wire from the lock/latch over to the side of Spyder. They use that instead of the ignition key to turn an unlock the frunk or seat.

    Damaged a Rim on my F3L when we hit about a 4" rock that slid off of a rock wall by the road - afraid to ask what a new rim will cost!?!

    Reporting it as an accident, the deductible on your policy for something small will most of the time be more than the fix. Plus that will put a mark against you on your insurance, even if you don't have them pay for the fix. That's what we have had done to us before. Next time we had a mishap at...

    ST Longest Ride Ever

    Both me and the wife have sheepskin covering our seats. Does make a difference in the summer, letting air circulate under your butt, and helps keep your butt cooler. In winter, it still helps your butt feel better.

    Has anyone else noticed excessive Right side front tire wear?

    Your wife could be right. But I ride on rural roads and never noticed that kind of wear. I'm sure someone else that knows more about Spyder alignment will have a better idea of what is causing the wear.

    What Hand Guards and Heated Seat Pads do you guys have on an F3 Limited? Any ideas?

    Check with Lamonster and see if he has the hand guards for a F3. Get some good wind and waterproof gloves, that will make a huge difference for your hands. Not those cheap gloves you see advertised for skiing. Those never worked for me to keep my hands warm.

    Parking brake light comes on & brakes lock up - UPDATE!

    Sounds like some are talking about their Spyder's locking up the parking brake while they are riding down the road at 50 mph or more. Others talking about their Spyder's parking brake locking up when it parked and they use their 12 mil. wrench to take off the cable so they can still ride. For...

    What Trailer hitch and wiring harness are you using for your RS Spyder?

    I don't think it was a BRP harness. Didn't see anything on it that said BRP. On eBay, look at the harnesses. Look at the Lamonster cable and you should probably see a picture of a wiring harness that looks identical to his. I'm not sure if your Spyder would take the same kind of harness tho...

    My Saturday ride up the Yakima River Canyon and beyond.

    Well, 2 Saturdays ago, I got out my '22 RTL. The wife got on the back and I drove. Left Yakima went up the Yakima River Canyon to Ellensburg. Had lunch at Campus Burgers just past the college. Left there heading east on the old Hwy to Vantage. The weather was nice an sunny and no wind. What! No...

    What Trailer hitch and wiring harness are you using for your RS Spyder?

    Yes, the wiring harness was a plug and play. Plugs into the wiring under the seat. Has a flat 4 pin at the end for the trailer to plug into.

    What Trailer hitch and wiring harness are you using for your RS Spyder?

    I bought an off brand hitch for the wife's F3L. Looks exactly like the one I bought from Show Chrome for my RTL, at half price too. Got the wiring harness off eBay, which looks just like the one from a couple of places from here when they had sponsors on the front page. Just my opinion.
