• 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.

    RT Floor boards- I was wrong BIG TIME

    Maybe No Floorboards, But All Kinds o' Other Compatible Goodies So in agreement with Lamont getting a buy on the matter of floorboards, here's my list of 2013 add-ons planned for my 2010 RT-S, all of which are compatible (I'm gonna get the ISCI floorboards, I think). Adjustable Vented...

    Now that detail (the centering jig) is interesting. I'll make a note of it ... and thanks.

    Tire Wear Mystery

    You situation sounds sufficiently different that I don't think we have the same problem. "1/3" of the tire is not involved; just the edge tread. On your steering being off center, did you have this fixed as a project or just the tire change? On the aside, well no, just like cincyspyder above...

    Tire Wear Mystery

    Now if that were a car, I'd say you had a camber adjustment issue. Meaning your wheels are angled like this: \\ \*/ //. If it were the inner edges instead, the camber would be angled like this: // \*/ \\. On mine, the effect is as if my wheels were angled like this: // \*/ // This is...

    Tire Wear Mystery

    Okay ... I keep my front tire pressure at around 20-22. Noted tire wear: You're looking at the Spyder head-on (looking into its beady little eyes). Tire wear is increased on the outer-right of the right tire, and the inner-right of the left tire (again, looking at the Spyder head-on). Bike...

    New RT floorboards.

    Decent Picture? I have an RT-S SE5 and given Lamonts comment, would like to evaluate the 2013 floorboards. I currently have Inspector Gadget's version which have been great, but might like to look at something a bit more substantial. ISCI or the Can Am 2013s for the RT SE5 would be the...

    2013 RT-S and Corbin seat

    Best thing to do is call Corbin (800-538-7035). The '13 Spyders were just unveiled last week. From reading, it looks like most of the chassis modifications are underneath; however, they need to get the '13s in their shop for evaluation. If they say, 'yes,' then that's the ticket. If they say...

    First problem...

    How much time had elapsed between the last time you ran the Spyder and this incident? I left my Spyder sitting for three weeks once and, while not dead, there wasn't enough juice to start the machine. It ended up flooding and it took a day of charging and a really 'messy' re-start to clear the...

    corbin seats

    I've had the the Corbin RT on my '10 RT-S for over 17 months. Great investment. The stock seat is just that: A seat. The Corbin, however, is orthopedically correct. I have the 'SilverSurfer cut' ... meaning, I sent them my height, weight, inseam, and even measured around my butt. It...

    Weird Spyder AM

    Keep It On A Tender! I cannot agree more with Nancy's Toy and HarryPottar's observations on battery charge and flooding. Here's my experience, which should sound familiar to CamdenLake About three weeks ago I allowed my RT-S to sit out under its cover for 10 days without starting in the...

    RT Exhaust

    Excuse My Delusion of Adequacy, but ... I would really like to see Two Brothers, or another after-market produce a better performing muffler for the Spyder RT that has a similar form factor as the original, but is lighter and and provides a bit better performance. My observations with...

    Rallies and Gatherings Forum?

    Thanks, I'm aware of the calendar ... and now having taken another look, it looks more utilized than I've seen it in previous years. I'm also pleased with how one can post the entire event there. My only remaining comment would be that it isn't clearly marked as an "Events Calendar" at the...

    Rallies and Gatherings Forum?

    I have been to SITS, Lamontster's BBQ (twice) and Can Am Spyder Owner Events, all phenomenal and I'm sure more to come. SpyderFest remains a dream that I beg for the time to attend. That said, there are other local or regional events that are either Spyder-inclusive or Spyder-centric, but that...
