• 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.

    HID + Fog Lights Requires Special Harness

    Don't discount the effect on other drivers during daytime driving. The lights are above average in brightness, blue-ish from an angle. Between the lights and the bright yellow....someone told me that I look like a parade of one. ;D :arrow: :a20:

    HID + Fog Lights Requires Special Harness

    I drove the Spyder before and after changing to xenon lights. The new lights are many times brighter and well worth the extra cost. Example; I was driving home with a tinted lense and had to lift up the visor when it got dark. With the HID lights, I never needed to raise the visor, I could see...

    windshield options....

    Please send me a private message on how it works out. We can't find any windshield fabricators locally and I don't want to get stuck with another shield that does not work. Thanks :arrow: :barf:

    ...another funny Spyder story...

    What tag? I am still running paper plates. In Calif. takes a while to get your plate. Sometimes cycle plates go to the dealership first. I did not order vanity plates, have had the bike over 7 weeks and over 800 miles.

    ...another funny Spyder story...

    ;D Last week I was stopped/detained (again) by someone asking about my Spyder. The guy was asking detailed questions, and although I was running late, he was blocking my exit. I patiently answered his questions and then his tone changed. Seems he is a policeman from another county; he met a...

    windshield options....

    Has anyone bought and tried the aftermarket shields. It is bee season here in Ag. country and the upcoming weeks can be very messy. I have read about 2 or 3 types; everyone believes their designs are the best. Has anyone that is not associated with the design or sales of the shield, have an...

    Just a warning for my fellow Spyder owners

    spouse suggests: drill the center out, tap it and insert a threaded stud. Can be done by hand or with lathe. Put Spyder back together and ride. Lock-tight the bottom of the stud. Carol

    motorcycle endorsement

    I would like to join put in my thoughts on the license.... Here in Calif., any 3 -wheeled motorcycle only requires a regular driver's license. No restrictions on passengers, etc. So...what if you drive over the State line; will other States be cool with not having a special m-1 or m-2 license? I...

    "The Price is Right"

    I understand the promotional end, I don't appreciate seeing one of the Premier Editions given away when there are so many people still looking to buy. There are many who missed the first deadline, put down a deposit - they should have been given a chance to purchase a Premier Edition.

    FYI on the charger installation...

    I am not sure the installation instructions are clear enough...the charger requires an extra fuse. My spouse figured this out late last night. Just sending you a head's up!

    Drilling a hole in your key?

    I believe that you can contact Lo-Jack and ask for a "test"...they send a signal to your vehicle and report the location to you. You need to have the signal tested periodically to make sure the unit has not broke or been damaged.

    Drilling a hole in your key?

    May be a girlie thing but I have my sheath attached to my regular key ring which clips onto anything (scuba diver's clip). I just insert the key back into the sheath, where ever I clipped the entire keyring. I wish that it was like the modern fob thingy and just being around enabled the...

    HID + Fog Lights Requires Special Harness

    My spouse was able to get the dealership to toss in the extra harness...which should only cost $99.99. Our point was after 6 round trips--which probably cost $$$ in gas-- they had every opportunity to mention any alternate parts needed. Also it was in writing on the "due bill" that I ordered a...

    The touring windshield is useless

    :spyder:...wadda mean short people ain't got no... ....well --no difference in driving with the touring windshield vs stock. I am about 5"3" female and I can't feel much wind difference, but I think I am getting less bugs on my face shield. The "really buggy" season is just beginning, so we will...

    fog lights received....in bad condition

    Picked up the remainder of my accessories. Opened up the fog lights and found the bulb connection (black plastic) cover was broken off into 3 pieces. Called the dealer and asked for a bulb only replacement (H8). They were not sure that Can Am will let them replace just the bulb without...
