• 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.

    2024 RT Ltd display shuts off - back to dealer!

    I used the Noco NLP20. it is much smaller than a stock battery physically. You must use the supplied spacers to raise it up for the Spyder clamp to hold it in place. Also, be very careful to put one of the included rubber pads between the clamp and the positive terminal. They are VERY close...

    Do you Need better brakes coz stock discs are twisted?

    If you follow the "bedding-in" process correctly, the EBC HH pads are an amazing improvement over stock.

    You're a long way from Sanford, but call Dave Raihl at Seminole Powersports. He's the #1 selling Spyder salesman. He will make you a much better deal on a 23...

    2024 RT Ltd display shuts off - back to dealer!

    I've had quite a bit of experience with these cheap Chinese batteries. BRP switched to these from Yuasa batteries during the covid years. Unfortunately, you will not get more than 6 months out of one of these reliably. That just happens to be the warranty period on the battery. If you have a...

    Anyone ever back-fed their battery maintainer thru a USB port?

    If you've added power ports for heated clothing, you can backfeed the battery charger through them if they're wired (and fused) direct to the battery.

    Is there any place that sells Used parts for Spyders? Salvage yards/junkyards maybe?

    You can look here, but you must be a registered dealer/broker to buy directly. However, you can get in touch one of the dealer/brokers that buy from this site and then buy what you want from them... https://www.copart.com/vehicle-search-model/can/spyder-roadster

    Nitpicking the 2024 RT

    I liked the new controls. The high beam switch is now where the former flash-to-pass/BRP Connect switch was. The big reverse button is gone, replaced by a more easily operated, smaller button. Rolling the throttle forward is the new "mode" switch. I'm still not convinced the touch screen dash is...

    Nitpicking the 2024 RT

    Saw a couple of new 2024 RT's Friday. Both were already sold and awaiting pick up. I saw two things I don't care for on them though. If you look closely at the top of the side bags, you'll see a triangle shape with a different finish. These are simply stuck on decals for looks. I wonder how long...

    Here be a newbie - with a bunch of questions about riding, twitchy handling, & brakes

    I agree with all the above advice, especially the relax part. If you are at all tense on the handlebars, everything your body does will be translated into the Spyder. In addition, if you feel that reaching the brake pedal is difficult, consider that the F3 has 5 possible pedal positions. If your...

    Warming up Spyder for oil level check

    I humbly refer back to this sticky post from BRP about proper oil amounts for the 1330 engine. 5.0 qts is the preferred amount for engine oil & filter change only. Additional for HCM change. https://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?82580-Oil-Level-on-1330-engined-Spyders-Chapter-II

    2013 Spyder RT-S with faded switches - do I just need new switches?

    First off, you absolutely need that tool to safely pop the caps off without damaging the switch underneath. Those switches are made by Carling, and the switch model is the Contura. You can get replacement caps at numerous places. You can even get custom engraved ones. Here's a link to a marine...
