• 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.

    Flip camera at the end of Lamont's drive...

    Hooligans I tell ya!! Or was that Huligans? I can never remember... Mickey, I do hope you get that back. I'm sure that what was on it is more valuable than the machine itself.

    I was blamed for this

    Well now you are going to have to keep us posted as to what goes down man! Should be interesting. That is a nice looking trike though.

    Picture from Lamont's BBQ

    Pretty wild stuff, Doc! You do realize, however, that if you ever get lost you will never be able to live it down! :D

    Motorcycle insurance in the news

    Yes, thank you for sharing that. I found the demographic numbers pretty interesting. 55% of riders are over 40 now. Many companies really want to spike you for the Spyder, simply because it's new and they don't really know how to classify it. I left my old insurance company for Allstate...

    Poor Service Poor CanAm response

    I tend to agree. Of course, two can play that game as well. The only difference is for us to do it we usually have to take it in the shorts! :sour: Sometimes you have to just cut your losses and get out from under a bad situation. It's too bad BRP doesn't get that or care enough to do...

    Brake Squeak

    Both our Spyders do it, especially if either machine sits for any length of time. I just clean the components off and it goes away. Just make it part of the pre-flight now before we take off as it's Pretty embarrassing not to mention annoying! :yikes:

    Here is a link to the letter sent in support of the bills; To see the letter, go to: www.americanmotorcyclist.com/Libraries/Rights_Documents_Federal/5_25_2011_Sensenbrenner_TransportationComm.sflb.ashx?download=true I could not confirm at this time that the 2 bills in question actually...

    What footwear do you use?

    ATGATT for me even if it's just around the corner. The close range runs are when stuff happens, so they say. Besides, it's a promise I made to my Wife when I started this whole adventure and it is one I shall keep. Risk management is something I take pretty seriously. For boots, I just burned...

    Spyder Sightings

    On Sunday 12 June at about 1400 hrs I was on my new machine heading South on Highway 280 just past Crystal Springs Reservoir when I saw a lighter colored Blue RT (not the Orbital Blue, it was a lighter shade) heading North. Single rider. I waved but I don't think the rider saw me. And no, I...

    MOTO GP starts this weekend, anyone else watch this

    Totally agree about Colin Edwards. That was a very gutsy performance, given he could have gone down again and really messed things up for himself physically. That was a huge podium! As for Simoncelli, I think it shows what a significant jump it is to go the premier class from the 250s and...

    Poor Service Poor CanAm response

    Man, how completely lame. I am very sorry to hear this. The phone support pretty much sucks to, unfortunately. I tried the phone approach a few times and could not even get to a human being. It's weird because you hear about how BRP is stepping up their customer support efforts and then you...

    And the Journey Begins...

    Thank you Sir! We had an excellent day out together bonding, and I have to say that this machine is a powerhouse! It's deceptive though because she's so smooth and quiet you just don't feel it. Because I am breaking her in I just kept it out of 6th gear, only doing a slight roll-on, shift to...

    Trade in value?

    I pulled the Phantom off the table when I bought my Suzuki GSX1250 FA because I thought the trade value offered was way too low. But from what I'm reading here I may have been just a tad mistaken. Heck, Some dealers would not even take it. My problem with the trade was that 14 is a genuine...

    MOTO GP starts this weekend, anyone else watch this

    Man, the weather really killed the event yesterday. I was a little scared for Lorenzo there when he went over; it looked bad for a second. Thank goodness he popped right up. Still not sure what Spies' condition is; he was having back pain last I heard. I think there were all of 9 bikes still...

    Guess who needs a new front sprocket?

    This issue is getting more widespread for sure. I don't think the problem is so much bad design or engineering (though I think that they should have come out with a tensioning system much like Capt. Jim's right from the git-go) it's just reeeeeally cheap materials and components being used...
