• 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.

    2013 spyder steering

    Now that is funny right there, no matter who you are. Goldwing trikes don't have steering problems....first of all , you have to modify the steering to rake it 4.5 up to 6 degrees, in order to have a suitable steering. Secondly, Honda goldwings are famous for their front end wobble and cupping...

    Removing front wheels

    Thanks Chris for the ratchet size. Scotty, I have a small bottle jack that takes up little room. When you ride places that I do, you never know when you need to take the wheel off. while I am at it, if you had to buy a new tire while on the road, where would you get it? WalMart? or any...

    I like someone with a sense of humor. Especially when he laughs at his own jokes. At least he did not call me stupid...LOL

    Removing front wheels

    I was thinking of packing a folding 4 size lug wrench in my frunk for trips that require me to remove a wheel in the event of an emergency. However, neither of the lug wrench ends would fit. Is there a special size lug wrench for the 3 lugs of a 2013 RT Ltd? How do you remove the lugs and the...

    BRP's web site shows the grills also. If you look at the RT Limited pictures on the web site, it shows both with webbed grills.

    2013 RT Ltd start up shudder

    2013 RT Ltd start up shudder

    My RT is parked inside my garage. Started it up this afternoon and released the Parking Brake and went into reverse to back out of the garage. It seemed to "shudder" while backing out. Is that a result of the parking brake not fully releasing? Any ideas about this?

    Lifting an RT

    I have a different need to get under my spyder every once in a while. I like to get under it and just look at the condition of things underneath. I recently bought a set of Harbor Freight metal ramps to drive the front tires up on, in order to get enough clearance for installing the bumpskid...

    What Vendor will make this first....

    It doesn't have to be as ugly and huge as those shown on the pickup trucks. But the nose of the Can-Am is highly vulnerable to damage. Seems like it would be easy to engineer to be both attractive and functional.

    Hot foot problem

    I have ordered from BakerBuilt.com their lower foot deflector wings which deflect heat from the right-sided upper radiator exhaust hole as well as the left-sided oil cooler exhaust hole. During the summer, you can turn the deflectors to shield your feet from the heat and in the winter, you can...

    What Vendor will make this first....

    I installed the bumpskid for low curb bumps and street debris. However, the frunk lid has a very pointed and highly vulnerable nose that is subject to damage and high cost in the event of an small bump that high up. It seems, or maybe there is and I can't find it, that someone would have...
