• 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.

    Is there a Good Service Dealer In Western Washington State?

    There is another place in emuclaw? Klims I think how its spelled. He used to service Spyders an put on what ever kinds of tires you bring him. He used to be good. I don't know if he still does Spyders or if he still good at them.

    Is there a Good Service Dealer In Western Washington State?

    I ride my Spyder an the wife rides her Spyder to Pro Caliber in Vancover for service from Yakima. We ride on the Washington side of the Columbia river. Lots of scenery compared to the freeway on Oregon side of the river. If you take your Spyder there for service make sure to tell them when...

    Anyone tried to source '24 Sea to Sky Brown/bronze accent parts?

    All I can think of, is open a case file with brp. Think that's what its called. BRP is iffy on how much they will help seems like.

    So many complaints about the Spyders. Anyone with no problems?

    No problems on the wife's '19 F3L. No problems on my '22 RTL either, except I changed out the battery; it didn't seem to be turning over like it should. The tires that came on it seem just fine, my opinion only it seems like. I do ride in winter if the roads are dry. I just dress for the cold...

    2024 will Crank, but just won't start! More later...

    I second the call to get rid of the chinese battery if you have one in your Spyder. I got rid of mine in the first yr. It turned slower than the Yusa battery I had in my other Spyder. I got a Yusa battery on Amazon; filled it and let sit; then put it on my battery charger. Been all good since.

    New Spyder sold with no factory warranty - is this right? What say you all?

    That doesn't sound right to me. 8 months left of warranty - it still would have some warranty left. If it had been a demo there would have been mileage showing on the dash-mileage. It's against the law to show the wrong mileage - speedo-instrument replaced vehicles still have to have something...

    What's best for Cold weather winter storage? Fuel additive? Battery care? Rodents?

    Like 2dogs, I use mouse trap and a battery powered mouse trap that zaps the mouse. I put steel wool in the end of muffler if I remember too. Fuel stabilizer in the fuel tank when I gas up before parking for winter. But we take our Spyders out during winter for rides too. As long as roads are...

    First long ride coming, 2015 RTS - any advice?

    Don't use a death grip on the hand grips. Leave your hands kinda loose. Makes them steer & handle a lot better. A real Tight grip transfers any movement of your body down to the grips and steering; and you will be trying to correct the steering all the time. A looser grip and the Spyder will...

    Anyone using Sheep Skin for Driver's Seat? If so, any input?

    We left the sheep skins whole. Didn't cut them in half and make 2 pieces out of each skin. Just cut the small piece out for the bracket that goes up to the backrest pad. We cut just a bit of the skin to be more of the shape of seat. If we want to take off the skin, we take off the backrest and...

    Anyone using Sheep Skin for Driver's Seat? If so, any input?

    My wife bought 2 sheep skins off Amazon. She bought sheep skins that had been treated so that they could be hand washed. That way, if you get caught in the rain while riding your Spyder; or if it is parked out when it rains, it won't hurt them. We both have folding forward back rests on our...

    Trunk lock not locking - are they adjustable? Incorrect dealer set-up?

    Mine does the same thing - '22 Spyder RTL. I think I saw where you can adjust the pegs (prongs?) and that will fix it. One of these rides back to Vancover, Wa. and I will stop by the dealer and find out.

    In Washington, you don't need a car license or motorcycle license to get a 3-wheel license. You don't need another license to get a motorcycle license. If you have a car license you still have to have a motorcycle license endorsement to ride a motorcycle. If you want to drive a car; a...

That's the battery I used to replace the **** battery that was in...

    1330 and Gas Mileage Review - What's yours? Anyone else tracking theirs?

    Me and the wife don't worry what our gas mileage is on our Spyders. We get on, fill them up at gas station and head out riding. When we want to stop, to stretch, look at something, or just want to get a snack, we stop and fill up our Spyders, get pop or coffee, & candy bars. And then on the road...
