• 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.

    Dealer claimed they couldn't release my Spyder if it failed the sprocket wear test!

    That’s standard operating procedure for every safety recall notice I’ve ever been involved with. Either they have the new replacement part in stock and the repair is done immediately or in the world we live in today, we wait for the replacement part to be delivered on a as needed basis. I hope...

    Got an Ez-pass? Where did you mount it on your Spyder RT ?????

    I put mine under the lid of the frunk too. If the EZ PASS can be read through a laminated glass windshield than it can easily be read through the plastic cover lid. I have had zero problems or any issues at all with this installation. I use four small pieces of the Velcro brand Alfa-Lok adhesive...

    Did you have to wait long to acquire your new Ryker?

    I put a down payment on a 22 RTL January 27, 2022 for a bike from my dealerships allotment. The bike was at that time due in May but now I’m told August. I recently heard from another salesperson and a different place that BRP has problems with getting some electrical parts across their whole...

    Topping off your fuel tank - is it good practice??

    When I go to buy gasoline for my car I bring a 5-1/2 gallon gas can and fill it up so I can top off my Spyder when I get home. I hate dealing with the gas pumps and trying to fill the Spyder at the station as that process is incredibly slow and irritating. I fill’er up like BLUENIGHT911.

    Just when you thought you heard everything; 5.2 million dollar verdict awarded.

    I wish we all knew the name of this Judge. Maybe he can be voted out?

    This is a question on how people are labeled based on their views

    I understand what you’re saying UtahPete but I disagree and will stand by my statement as the Constitution is as written today and I don’t want to get drawn into a chop salad of words having variable meaning.

    This is a question on how people are labeled based on their views

    In regards to the question that person may have certain libertarian feelings, be misinformed, unable to grasp the opinion fully with todays prejudice or could not care less either way. I on the other hand chose to be a strict Constitutionalist and it has served me well as I like to know all the...

    My module finally arrived and I took delivery of my new Spyder!

    Just a little Spyder information I can share with you because I haven’t had mine long enough to know as much as others on this board is that the drive belt is not supposed to be centered on the pulley. It should be about a credit cards thickness away from the inner edge. Hope you continue to...

    Electric vehicles and the Grid

    What’s wrong with today’s modern ICE? They run very efficiently, have good power, low polluting, reliable, economical, recyclable, can be massed produced easily, the energy supply is widely available, easily transported, quickly refilled, easily repaired, built in the country, can operate in...

    Spyder radio is worthless - any solution to this problem?

    I’m happiest with the free Dash app streaming from my iPhone. The FM radio stations I normally listen to don’t seem to be picked up well on the Spyders receiver or if they do the fidelity is poor. The Dash radio app has so little commercial interruptions and they play good tunes that I enjoy I...

    How do you clean flat paint?

    I would not recommend applying ANY formula if wax, sealant or shine enhancer to the paint. Your just going to ruin the finish. I would only wash the bike with a mild car wash soap and dry it carefully. You don’t want to burnish the finish and create a shiny spot. I be owned a new Chevy truck...

    Here's my 2022 Sea to Sky RT

    Whatever you do don’t wax or polish it, just wash it with a mild soap meant for washing vehicles that doesn’t have a wax in it. If you wax it it will change the finish and could get streaky and unsightly. I hope to see one in person. What part of Illinois do you live. I’m in Will County.

    Here's my 2022 Sea to Sky RT

    Congratulations on your new Spyder Sea to Sky. I have only seen them in pictures and was wondering your impression of the satin paint finish. Thanks.

    I feel like being taken for a ride (not a good ride) trying to decipher true cost..

    The commodity surcharge is listed on the Can Am website and has nothing to do with the dealer or his profit. I’m thinking it was added to recover additional costs in manufacturing or acquisition of materials above the manufacturers negotiated purchase prices in building the vehicles. All prices...

    Is this Torque for rear brake caliper bolts too high?

    Torque wrenches? Who needs them? I have a torque wrench built into my elbow. I know what good and tight feels like on any fastener.

    Anyone received their 2022 Spyder or news on Delivery, Delays, & Omissions?

    We went to our dealer to place our order for a 2022RT Limited on January 27. The color we chose was on the dealership allotment and due to arrive in May. A phone call made today to enquirer informed us that the bike will not be delivered until the end of August. We were offered a different bike...
