• 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.

    Could it really be that simple?

    Will do! Had time for 100 miles today and still running great. So I definitely agree with others that it is the tech that installs the update that determines if your spyder will run afterwords. If they don't follow the steps exactly, miss something, or don't recalibrate all they are...

    Could it really be that simple?

    I know others have stated a good service dept is essential and I believe it now more than ever. Its been over 3 weeks since I had the update at the dealer I bought it at and things went bad, occasionally getting the check engine light with scrolling "CHECK DPS", surging, running hotter than...

    Can the Recall Update be UNDONE?

    Went by my dealer today. They replaced the DPS on Tuesday because of the occasional check engine light and scrolling "CHECK DPS" per Brp. It didn't work. :( So now they think it is a software glitch. It worked fine before download and aren't sure what to do next. The dealer shows the new...

    Can the Recall Update be UNDONE?

    That's funny. What are the chances. He was picking up a lower A arm cover to replace the one that broke when a racoon ran out in front of him. He did notice that they changed the upper A arm covers on the latest 09s. They added an air scoop like the lowers have. I may have to invest in a new...

    Can the Recall Update be UNDONE?

    My dad bought his at Ask Superstore in Columbus and had the update done without any problems. I believe he said they had done around 20 without any issues. Mike in the service dept. is very knowledgeable about the spyder and I have talked to him a couple of times. By the way, they were just...

    Steering Recall Webcast Aug 25

    I stopped by my dealer a few minutes ago and talked to the tech working on my spyder. Just so happens my new DPS unit came in and he was installing it. He said they just got done watching the webcast and they admitted changing the mapping or timing of the purge valve. They also stated that...

    Just got off the phone with Carlo

    It's true, going by the poll you have a better chance of not having any problems at all. If you do get the surging and need an additional "fix", hopefully it won't be too long. I didn't have any of the gas smell or running rich like some people had before the update and if that is what the...

    Just got off the phone with Carlo

    I called my dealer tech to let him know what I was told so he would wait for their fix and not tear everything apart looking for something else. He said he would wait for a bulletin. I asked if the new DPS came in yet and he said no and they didn't tell him how long it would take. He then...
