• 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.

    Any idea why my Rear Shock Bolt bends in the middle?

    - Well, I increased the spring tension by 6 turns, it still bottoms out on very rough surface, as in wash board gravel roads. Marcus's instructions say if you do more than 4 turns you may need a different spring, contact him. Well that is no longer an option. So for now, I am putting back on...

    Any idea why my Rear Shock Bolt bends in the middle?

    Thanks so much for the zip tie idea, Ron. I will admit I never tried to adjust the shock just put it on. So will be adjusting it after I do the zip tie check

    Any idea why my Rear Shock Bolt bends in the middle?

    Thanks for all the inputs. I did not jack on that area as far as I can remember. If jacking on it, then it would be bent up in the center, not down. But hey, maybe jacking on it would straighten that bolt. :LOL: I need to read the paperwork that Marcus sent with it to see how to adjust the...

    Any idea why my Rear Shock Bolt bends in the middle?

    Yes a 2013 ST, no air suspension, just a rear shock that went from stock to an M2 Shock - I also have M2's on the front.

    Any idea why my Rear Shock Bolt bends in the middle?

    Yes we do. But after looking at the parts list, and looking at the hardware on the stock shock, I believe Marcus's hardware of attaching his shock fell short of the stock hardware. His only uses steel spacers on either side of the shock instead of a thick collar (150) that the bolt passes...

    Any idea why my Rear Shock Bolt bends in the middle?

    This is the second time I have replaced this bolt, any idea why it bends in the middle, maybe M2's shock is to stiff for it? Maybe I need a higher grade bolt than the stock one.

    Does a 2025 Sea to Sky have jam nuts on the inner tie-rod ends? Can someone look for me to confirm/deny?

    I just checked my 2013 Spyder ST. It has jam nuts on both inner and outer tie rod ends.

    I guess I'm just not a Twisties guy!

    Yes, If the other person is going faster than you feel comfortable, don't try to keep up, do what feels comfortable to you. ;)

    Rear seat won't unlatch! Any pics of the latch/latch location? Sure would appreciate any help!?!

    On my 2013 I zipped tied the latch open. My Spyder is kept garaged, so I see no reason to have my seat locked. ;)

    What's YOUR Number One Favorite, Model & Year, of Spyder you'd own given the chance?

    Totally happy with my 2013 I bought used, does not even have a radio, could care less about all that audio Crap owners are always have issues with. I'm old school. The sounds of the open road is all I need. :p

    Losing a bit of faith in Can Am - enjoy the riding, but not the endless waiting while they find parts and fix all the niggling issues!

    I know on my 2013 Spyder, if the brake pedal is not fully up, then cruise won't work, and the switch can be real fussy, it may need adjusting. I need to check mine for sensitivity.
