• 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.

    I agree with shocks set midway and front tire pressure at 15psi.....cornering felt real sloppy with a feeling of front end dive......set my front shocks to 5.....rear shock to 7.....increased front pressure to 17.5.....rear to 30 and I am now real happy with cornering stability......in fact I...

    How are you keeping your velcro straps secure on the cowl anchoring posts .....I made my slot in the straps just large enough to go over the posts but with a little movement or adjustment of the cowl and I have a loose strap that comes off the post?? I still think it's a shame that anchoring...

    Corbin accessories

    Short answer.....NO ......you would have to do major brain surgery and install a receiver in the stock SPYDER seat. The Corbin saddle is structured in design and materiel to accomadate their backrest!

    FIRST SERVICE -- Many Questions.....

    I guess the major factor to consider for scheduled Dealer service is the computer log in to BRP that Required service was performed at or near recommended mileage.The dealer doesn't do this ......your SPyder is plugged in and codes are transmitted to BRP!So I guess it is the warranty...

    Handling ?!

    Having owned 5 Trikes, 57 Bikes, 6 Atv's.......the ride and handling are all different.If I feel like carving corners I jump on my Buell XB, if I want a fun ride with the Misses the Trike comes out.There are pluses with each unit, however the trike offers more safety in compromised road and...
