• 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.

    Are you happy with your aftermarket CAR tires?

    I haven't followed the Canyon comments. But I would suspect these complains have to do with off pavement riding? Which is to be expected. A reverse trike configuration is not a good platform for low traction, rough terrain conditions. Add to this that the aggressive tread pattern needed to give...

    Are you happy with your aftermarket CAR tires?

    And who puts OEM tires on their car when the original tires wear out? I never have. I always put better tires on my car. Sometimes I don't even wait for them to wear out. The tires that came on my VW E-Golf were horrible!

    Are you happy with your aftermarket CAR tires?

    There are a lot of aspects to a tire. Any one of which can result in a dissatisfied customer. I don't know if this covers everything. But these are important. Cost Wet & Dry Traction Overall Handling Longevity Ride (Smoothness) Availability Opinions about maintenance items vary greatly. These...

    My '21 F3 Ltd is Pulling to the Right - any ideas on what to check next?

    If you are sure your alignment is good, raise the front and spin the front tires by hand. See if one is dragging. Could be a caliper hanging up.

    Are you happy with your aftermarket CAR tires?

    There really are no downsides to using the right car tire on a Spyder. It's all upside. One of the misconceptions here is that we all use the term 'Car Tire'. But the truth is, the OEM Kenda's are car tires as well. They are just too light duty to handle the added weight of a car. So, all we...

    Not a problem. I've got a pile of them. But I can ship you one for $6.00 so you don't have to wait.

    Where should I invest first to improve stability - shocks or a stabilizer bar

    Did you raise it? Or did you simply bring it back to recommended ride height? (Which is what we recommend.) You should be between 3.5" & 4" from the ground to the front of the large, rectangular main frame member running along the center of the bike. This height should be achieved when loaded...

    OK! Finally! I intended to make a video, but I just don't have the time. Sorry, not that anyone really cares. But we all have dreams that we have to let go of. I hope you enjoyed the experience! Thank you for your participation. This is Seth, one of our employees. He did the drawing. He has no...

    Why would I have this Front wheel shake on a 2011 RT??

    Good catch! It could also be Ride-On if it sat for an extended period of time. That would fix itself as well if ridden. Especially on hot pavement.

    Has anyone tried the Can-Am factory optional swaybar on their Ryker?

    The BRP upgrade bar for the Ryker will give some handling improvement. But the fact that the OEM plastic links are still used with confidence is an indicator that it isn't that much different. There are a few things that come into play here. We didn't build a sway bar for the Ryker just because...

    New 2012 RT-S Owner - Which Wheels? Tune-up Suggestions?

    15" wheels are a good move on the older Spyders. Better handling and tire availability as well.

    Rear tire mileage - How are you people getting 10,000 + miles on Kenda tires?

    Like Jackhartjr said. Car tires are not recommended by BRP because they want you to buy their tires. No one is buying Kenda's because they perform well. So BRP can't market them for their quality or service life. You're not putting a car tire on a motorcycle wheel. You're putting a car tire on...

    Can anyone explain what aftermarket end links actually DO?

    To be fair, the plastic links hold up fairly well with the stock sway bar. Though some production runs have been problematic. They stretch and compress which will fatigue them over time and can lead to breakage. Especially if you are an aggressive rider, ride 2-up, or do other things that work...

    Yes, They are for sale. I will get them up on the webpage soon. I apologize for not finishing the raffle drawing as promised. Things got busy Friday and I wanted to do a video. So, it will now be Monday, if I can pull it off then. Monday's tend to be hectic.

    Spyder suddenly shut down when I stopped at a light!! Started right up after a bit tho - ever happened to you? Any heat sensor do this? Any ideas?

    What smog device did the dealer remove? Good question from Gwolf regarding fan operation. The fans should have been running in your situation. We could do a better job of helping if we could get come feedback.

    Can anyone explain what aftermarket end links actually DO?

    There was a recall on OEM end links a good number of years ago. They were snapping like popcorn. Turned out that BRP was using multiple suppliers. One supplier was skimping on the kevlar fiber component. You had to determine if you had a link from the bad batch to get a replacement set. It was a...
