• 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.

    Has anyone tried these Mods to their RT622 Lid Seals? Better ideas?

    Oh how I wish. As Pete stated, I am in OZ. I now barrack for the Canadian Swim Team - I think all parts for Spyders are transported by them across the Paciifc - strapped to their back. :)

    Has anyone tried these Mods to their RT622 Lid Seals? Better ideas?

    Hi Peter, I did just that. Went to Clark Rubber and grabbed the owner. We spent a few mins discussing a few options and he came up with some adhesive-backed EPDM rubber. I wasn't sure how long it would be before the new seals arrived from SpyderOps, and I'm taking the trailer on several rides...

    RT 2010-2019 - When your rear aquaplanes which way does your RT Swing?

    I took a trip up North of here and it poured the whole trip (about 3 hours), at times reduced to 70km/hr. My '17 RTL always swings to the right, it doesn't pull me off the direction of travel. Now that I'm used to it, it is less of a heartstopper. With the Kendas and Arachnid, it was a...

    Thanks, that's the plan long term. The weather forecast suggests we have another wet ride home so I'm looking for something that I can do while away

    Has anyone tried these Mods to their RT622 Lid Seals? Better ideas?

    Am away with the chief cook and got an absolute drenching - in the RT622 trailer. The beading looks in good nick but it hasn't sealed well enough to keep the water out. I checked the way the luggage was packed and couldn't see anything pushing either of the lids up off their seals. I am...

    I didnt know this existed. How do you find "stuff"? I have tried different query syntaxes and queries and it doesn't make it easy to find anything.

    When and where was the first time you rode a Can-Am tryke ??

    At the dealership where I bought it. A mate had a '14 RTL and would come to visit and offer it to me to take for a ride. I'd say "NO it's something my cheque book would have to resolve if I did" Another mate to the two of us, had me come to the city with him and we decided to go to one of the...

    Try BajaRon's stabilizer before getting new Shocks? Or What?

    I fitted Wilburs which were built to my specs. The bike is much more comfortable to ride especially long distances and does everything much much better. I chose a more touring-oriented build than sports. The Spyder was nervous in rough corners, and when you encountered one of those corners...

    Try BajaRon's stabilizer before getting new Shocks? Or What?

    Shocks first, I was ambivalent, but rode one of each and went the shocks. The Stabilizer solved a problem, the shocks solved multiple.

    What bike did you ride to get your motorcycle license ??

    new 1981 model Suzuki ER185 so many enjoyable hours. I recall doing things like riding 120km to the nearest city just to have a Kentucky Fried Chicken Chocolate mousse because I could :) Only regret - not buying 20'000 Litres of petrol at the price it was then 38c/L:)

    Your thoughts on the Best Riding Jacket for the Spyder?

    Is there any other way of disengaging cruise control?

    I tap on the brake. It trips the Cruise control and sort of warns the guy behind me I'm dropping speed. Sometimes I'll drop a gear due to a need to drop a gear knowing it will trip the CC

    Downshifting vs Braking

    No issues; I do either. Sometimes I manually downshift, while others, I let the RTL do the work.
