• 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 anyone running these Bright yellow lights as headlights or foglights?

    Yeah, at $600+I guess they are expensive, but I've already got fog lights and I want (hope) to convert those to yellow driving lights. I've never had my fog lights out, so I don't know at this time if I should install yellow bulbs or craft a yellow replacement lens. Thanks for the referral.

    Is anyone running these Bright yellow lights as headlights or foglights?

    I've replaced my OEM headlight bulbs (several times), but I've never been into my fog lights. I'm considering replacing my fog lights with yellow LED bulbs. Has anybody put LED bulbs on their fog lights? Any problems with fitting or getting hot and melting? I plan on having them on all the time...

    My Motohorn died on me this weekend

    "I immediately got so pissed I just yanked the whole thing off my F3 and threw it in the trash, then reconnected the stock horn." Yep, me too! I'm done with it. It was my second aftermarket horn on my RT, and I'm done with these things. It worked great before I installed it, but after two...

    My search for the perfect oil funnel? What's yours?

    Ron's funnel, I believe, is for filling the radiator reservoir. The best way to get a funnel is to borrow one and not return it. LOL Forget I said that. :rolleyes:

    Is anyone running these Bright yellow lights as headlights or foglights?

    Is anyone running these seemingly new, very bright yellow headlights or foglights? Been passing a few lately, and they are very eye catching. I've not seen any cars/pickups running them, only motorcycles. Mostly, they are on sport touring bikes. Something new I've never seen before.

    Fitted EBC Rotors and Pads, now it has a pulsing feeling when slowing down under a light pedal!

    There's a heat'm up, cool'm down procedure to unwarp warped rotors if that's your problem. Take a rotor off and lay it on a piece of glass to see if it's warped. It should contact the glass all the way around with no gaps showing. Good luck. A dial indicator could be used without removing a...

    Any suggestions for creative use/mods/add-ons for the dashboard gauge plugs?

    I replaced one of mine with a USB/volt meter and the other with a cigarette lighter socket. I also installed a double USB/volt meter rocker switch in the vacant location just below the center of the handlebars. In addition to that, I installed a battery tender lead directly off the battery and...

    My search for the perfect oil funnel? What's yours?

    You can never have too many funnels.

    Looks like it's time to give up the ride - thoughts fm others who've faced this?

    NO! Life is not over yet. Keep your Spyder. You and your wife still have a lot of good miles left in both of you.

    How long will the drive belt last?

    100K+, then just keep a close eye on it for any changes that may begin to appear. Anything that would differentiate from a new belt. I'd purchase a new belt at 100K and keep it on hand just because. Belts are easy to swap out.

    What switch fits the extra rocker switch slot on 2024's?

    Whatever the switch is called, be very careful when cutting out the hole to install it. It's very easy to make the hole too large, leaving the switch difficult to use. Don't ask me how I know that.

    2015 RT - trying to swap the Garmin mount with a powered cell phone delete mount - any suggestions?

    Replace your fuel or temp gauges with USB connections or cigarette lighter ports. Also, there's a USB port that will fit below the center of your handlebars between your rocker switches. Temp and fuel readouts will switch over to the screen between your tach and speedo. You'll have 12v...

    Is it easy to Replace the Battery on a 2014 RT? Any Recommendations? Any need for electronics protection or reset?

    Two very good answers.

    2010 Spyder won’t start! Got a new battery and put it in, everything looks normal, but only clicks once! Any Help?

    I'll bet that if you load test your battery, you'll find it has 12v but not the amps to turn over your starter. Your new battery has been sitting on the shelf too long. A simple inexpensive load tester from Harbor Freight is a handy tool to have. It helps to solve a lot of problems. Good luck.

    How can I open the Turn Signal & Mirror Case without breaking something? Any thoughts?

    Check your connections first. Use a voltmeter to check your leads to confirm you're 12v to the connection point. I can't find anything on opening up your rear view mirrors. Check with Peter or BajaRon on how to do it.

    My Ryker 900 always leaks at the oil filter cap - what's going on?

    You are getting some good advice here. I'm so glad that with my spyder (and my wife's new car), I don't have to check the ground anymore for fresh oil spots where we parked. LOL

    Totally bonkers 'Miles to empty' on Can Am 2023 RTL - can it be fixed?

    With all the rides I've owned over the years that only had one gauge on them (and a couple didn't have a gauge at all), it becomes second nature to know pretty close to when it's time to fill up. That one gauge would be the speedometer, and the luxury one had a trip meter. Even when gas was .25...

    I'm even more of a Spyder fan than I was before

    Built my first ride from a collection of parts back in the mid-50s. It was powered by a little 3 hp Briggs. On my way up, dirt riding became my first love. I went through many 2-wheeled street bikes on the way to my Spyder, which appears, if it lasts, to be my last ride. I still own my last dirt...

    Any time limit on changing HCM filter during oil change? Is a 10 y/o filter good for a few more years?

    Pulled mine at approx 28k. Cleaned it and put it back in. It just appears to be a chunk catcher rather than a typical filter. Yea, $125.

    Any suggestions on a good riding camera - need one, after a road rage incident!
