• 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.

    Spyderlovers - Facebook - Or Both?

    #1 Spyderlovers forum is what I prefer. Facebook is probably good for local/regional groups.

    2011 RS SE5 Won't start/shift to Neutral - anyone have shifter wiring schematics?

    I have a 2011 RT-S and had similar problems. My bike did all sort of crazy things. Cranking then running rough and shutting off. All kind of lights lighting up in the dash. My problem boiled down to a shifter arm that was worn. Double check the shifter arm because it is softer metal and...

    What makes a Spyder's smoother ride vs. Ryker?

    I have never ridden a Ryker but have set on one and could tell that I would be cramped etc. Talking about price points I had an accident on my Harley last year and decided that maybe it was time for me to think about 3 wheels. Even though I had said many times that I would never ride a 3...

    Chrome or Blacked-out - am I the only one who likes Chrome??

    Just curious if I am the only one that likes chrome? I have an older RT, so on some days I daydream about getting a newer model. I have to look at 2014 and up RT's, because of my budget. It appears that about 70-80% are the Dark Edition and if I would bite the bullet even on a used unit, I...

    Which Spyder - Tall Rider

    I have an older RT and love it. My riding buddy has ridden goldwings for years. He kept looking at mine and finally went and bought a 2020 RT Limited which he loves. He still has his goldwing but has not ridden it since he purchased the RT. He is probably about 6'3" and he told me that if he...

    A small Safety Mod to our 2022 RTL with a big improvement!

    I ride an older 2011 RT and it's hard to see the blinker in the display during the day. If I had this knob and a brighter blinker light in the display, life would be good.

    Anyone else dealing with this sort of Gas Mileage?

    Having a 2011 RT-S I just want to let you know that you are hurting my feelings on MPG. But I do enjoy the high RPMs and the fun factor. The biggest problem is having to stop more often in a group riding situation. But usually at least one in the group has to pee at that time so all is good. lol

    Are Vredestein Tires Directional? Does Ride-On come in 'bottles per tire'?

    I can't say enough good about Ride On. When I first heard about it I thought it was all BS but after trying it I am a believer. I first heard about it from an old school Harley mechanic. I was putting a new tire on my Harley and needed some tire weights, so I called him to see if he had any...

    My RT Fuel/Gas Door DIY

    Is it possible to install fuel door on a comfort seat on RT-S? If so, where can I buy fuel doors and how difficult are they to install? Thanks for your help. Leon

    Looking to pull the trigger on F3T but have questions

    Don't forget to look at late model used Can Ams. More bang for the buck. The RT Limited is a nice ride and has some features that you would enjoy like the heated seats. Good luck in your quest. Test ride both models and see for yourself. I like the RT myself.

    Where besides dealers do you get tires mounted and balanced?

    My riding buddy just got 2 new Kenda Kanines for the front of his 2020 RT and one was really bad out of round. He does his own mounting and balancing. The tire dealer told him they would not refund on a used tire. He explained that it had not been on the ground that he had just mounted the...

    Issues with Kenda Tires or Not?

    Thanks for the response. Being on a fixed income, cost is a factor for me. I have looked at used 15 inch rims for the Can Am and it appears an outlay of $450 - $500.00 so I will suffer through with the 14". I will be shopping for the Vredestein tire which Tire Rack appears to have in stock...

    Are you happy with your aftermarket CAR tires?

    I have only replaced my rear tire with a car tire because of excessive thread wear in center section of the Kenda. But I know it does not make any sense but it to me handled and rode better after putting the Kuhmo tire on the rear. I have plans to replace the front Kendas because of some...

    Which F3 Limited Windshield?

    Give the Can Am a chance. You have to put some miles in the saddle to feel comfortable and enjoy. One of my riding buddies had ridden Goldwings forever and he told me over the weekend while we were on a day ride that he would not trade his 2020 RT Limited for 2 new Goldwings if he had to keep...

    Belt cover/guard: needed or not?

    Same experience with me. Notice you winter in Florida and summer in Central New York. Why don't you put down some roots in South Carolina. We ride year round. My wife is in real estate so if we can help call. Or if you decide to keep going back and forth - Enjoy life.
