• 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.

    Honda Gaskets Looking Good!

    Had to pull the Y pipes tonight. After 26,000 miles, the gaskets look great. My math isn't too good, but I think I would be on at least my 3rd set of OEM gaskets, more likely 4.

    Auto tune / install and HMF / do it yourself

    +1 I am a lifetime member of the "If It Ain't Broke, Don't Fix It" club. My wife's spyder is running like a champ, so I am done messing with it until something changes.

    The Cost of An Oil Change...

    Always nice to hear about outstanding dealers, no matter where they are!

    Dont change your own Oil if you want to keep your warranty!

    "To be fair, my dealer really seems to care, and is trying to help me, but they are held to follow BRP's rules or else." What is your dealer trying to help you do? Is there a problem? there are many smart folks on here that may be able to help. "Then you discover that most dealers don't...

    Two Brothers or HMF?

    Plug Wires or Y-Pipe Gaskets

    If you are going to pull everything to check the wires, save yourself some trouble and get Baja Ron's plug wires. You will probably get them at a later date anyhow. I will say that my wife's Spyder never ran well at lower rpm's until I installed an O2 modifier (and later Power Commander). New...

    Canisterectomy

    There have been many, many people with this issue, so I don't think there are that many bad purge valves out there. Once my dealer told me the purge valve was working like it should, I did the canisterectomy and routed the gas tank vent to the rear of the bike. No more issues after that.

    Rear brake rub.

    My wife's spyder has done this for as long as I can remember. Putting CRC De-Squeak on the rotor stops it for a while. According to her dealer, other than being kind of irritating, there is nothing wrong.

    What size is the evap vent hose?

    Right side of the bike, front of the engine. Follow the overflow line from the gas tank. See Part #21 in the pic here. If you bought it used, it may have been removed. Many folks have taken them out...

    What size is the evap vent hose?

    Many, including me, have routed the hose all the way to the rear of the bike.

    Got a general maintenance/trouble question

    I ride 2 wheels, my wife rides her Spyder. Both have had mechanical issues, but not many and not one more than the other. Things happen and the more one rides, the better the odds. Overall, the Spyder has been relatively trouble free for 3 years and most of the problems were my fault, not...

    Auto tune / install and HMF / do it yourself

    Find the factory O2 sensor that is installed now. It will be just before the exhaust clamp directly under the middle of the bike. I put mine on the opposite side of the OEM sensor. Just about anywhere above horizontal will work. It would definitely be difficult for a welder to install the...
