• 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.

    What's the best windshield to avoid buffetting?

    I have been reading the blogs...I just installed the touring windshield today as it finally came in. I am not getting the wind deflection I was hoping for, just a few less bugs maybe. Still cold here and the shield was no benefit. I was looking at the angle of the shield and unless it start...

    BRP mistake

    Dropped by Tulare Honda in Calif. last weekend. The owner is selling his private silver Spyder...low number edition. Has 200 miles on it. I don't want it so I never asked if he was selling it as new or used. Tulare said they just got the go-ahead from BRP to sell anything in stock/not picked up...

    Spyder Financing

    again, nothing is a sure bet. The reason I got my Spyder in Feb. instead of March was because someone's credit union would not front the loan. And the person tried several places before giving this one up. He did not want to lose his deposit so he is waiting on the March shipment and working on...

    Insurance Company Recommendations?

    I am in CA, so I doubt that my insurance guy could help you...but here is somethings I learned: the computers are set up to input brand names and the Can Am Spyder has not been added to most software listings. Also, 3 wheeled vehicles got a bad name 20 yrs ago when people were building them in...

    I got it! #1032 Yellow...

    I received (before the bike)... 1. black foldout map with the location marked for every Spyder purchase. 2. a plastic card with my official Can Am Spyder membership # 3. a jacket that does not fit and cannot be exchanged or returned. Good luck finding your jacket!

    small hands need advice on...

    We adjusted it. It is too big of a stretch for my small hands. Best idea so far is to buy another one, and try to bend it.

    finally got insurance....

    For those "West Coast" people... I finally got insurance. Working with Craig, 559-432-8282 He was able to contact Foremost and workout with them on how to label the Can Am. When we directly contacted Foremost they wanted $3,000 a year. I am now insured for $530 per year, full coverage. We then...

    Brake squeel

    I was told that the squeal is common during the early miles....true or not, I am going to put some more miles on the bike before take it in. Don't think of it as a squeal...think of it as an early warning system...let everyone know that someone is braking, so watch out!

    wow, we really must be a special group....

    Foremost wanted $3,000 per year....we will likely go with AAA. So far (well, until tomorrow) they think they can give me a policy at $400+ per year. We live in middle CA and will not be going to Daytona. Promised husband that we can try to make it to the 105th Anniversary week at Harley...

    ...spent the last 2 days trying to get insurance for my spyder.... :spyder: :spyder: Contacted dealer (after getting 4 denials, and not because of my driving record) asking if he had any feedback from the local purchasers? He said that is the reason some people are backing out or delaying until...

    dealer prep/ destination charges

    Well Ken, I do know somethings about Harley Davidson. When you order your bike, same scenerio...comes off the assembly the same as each model (only color changes). Whether it is to encourage you to buy more bling or accessories, I don't know the reason. But if you order the stuff at the same...

    I got it! #1032 Yellow...

    I am taking your advice (the slow part) very seriously, LaMonster. My husband called after taking it for a spin and said that it almost cause a couple of wrecks...people whipping around to look at it and not paying attention to the road. He said people had to drive up next to it, and around it...

    dealer prep/ destination charges

    About installation, if it is about fairness.... It is ususal and customary for the options ordered on American vehicles to be either placed at the factory if the request was submitted with the order (mine was) or the dealership does the job before delivery at the cost of the company that failed...
