• 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.

    2014 RT-S fixing the compressor questions

    Ok, so after watching a few videos, it seems they yes it's possible to do all the work on the compressor by removing the rear tire. You'll just be doing it upside down on your back. Getting the rear luggage off doesn't seem to be all that difficult. Still not sure how to wire the compressor...

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

    Sadly, they kind of have to with the price of fuel. Free delivery can get expensive.

    2014 RT-S fixing the compressor questions

    Ok, my compressor has been out for a while. I figured I'd just run a line direct, but the line from the schrader valve or the air bag wasn't long enough so I got a push connector to join the two together. It works, sort of - the pressure leaks down fairly quickly. Could be the connector, or...

    Spyder Motor Oil Query - Soliciting Opinions (((Pics)))

    According to my Owner's manual it's 9300 mi (15000K) or 1 year whichever comes first. So I change it every year. This time I got the the XPS oil change kit. First time I've ever seen a half quart of oil....

    Issue with Gauges and digital Cluster on 2014 RT SM6

    The RT-S and RT-L came with those gauges from the factory. With them in place, the digital gauges won't show, so that's normal. As on my tryke, the PO took those gauges out and replaced them with a voltmeter and oil pressure gauge, so the digital gauges show back up. From all reports, the...

    2014 RT-S went in for Spring tune-up - Instrument cluster now dead!

    Before I got my used 2014 RT-S, the cluster had been replaced. At a guess, somewhere around 29k miles. No idea what happened or why, but it only had 997 miles on the odo when I got it despite the seller saying it was at 30K or so. Electronics go bad and quite often only when turning on/off...

    What did you do to your Spyder today?

    Installed Lamonster belt tensioner, magic mirrors and a new right side fog light. The tensioner sure smooths out the ride.

    Oops …. Where does this go?

    The lost screws are probably hiding out with the missing 10mm sockets and they're all laughing at us crawling around on the floor looking for them.

    Oh my... lower psi in car tires on Spyder's really works!

    Many people seem to think that the Max Inflation listed on the tire is what they're supposed to be at. I've gotten into arguments with people over that when I tell them to use the decal inside the driver's door (usually). Tire manufacturer's don't know what vehicle that tire is going on or for...

    Spyder group riding etiquette

    The only "group" rides I've done on the Spyder were the "big" Veterans runs here in Dec. Over a hundred bikes usually. They line up by arrival, with Spyders, Trikes of all kinds and even a few Slingshots. No one seems to have any problems with it. There's another big ride coming in June that...

    Worth it to upgrade 2012 RTL?

    Heck, I'll sell you mine cheap. I'm looking for a nice F3 with a manual trans.

    Worth it to upgrade 2012 RTL?

    I test rode a 2010 before buying the '14. For me, having to wind the engine to 5k+ all the time just felt kind of frantic. Might be ok for a sportier ride, but I prefer the more relaxed feel of the 1330 for something like the RT.

    Clutch Slipping Per Dealer 2019 RT - does this sound right??

    So from reading your first post, this "slippage" or "surging" only happens at first take off? Mine's been doing that for a while - possibly from when I first got it. I've been using Amsoil change kits from Baja Ron since I got it. Maybe I should try the BRP oil and see if that makes a...

    Any way to get around the Start up safety message?

    Works on my 2014 RTS. I have to wait for the Can Am logo to appear, but as soon as it does, the mode button and start works every time.

    Too cold for me and my Spyder

    I rode in this morning - 34* by the weather app, 37* by the tryke. No heated gear. It's due to be mid-50s this afternoon. My record is riding an ST1300 50 miles to work at 19*. Wasn't too bad, but not enjoyable.

    Spyders passing HDs

    I wish I could find a decent '96+ ST1100. best handling bike I ever owned and about the most comfortable. Had a couple ST1300s, but didn't like them as much. I looked at the SilverWing as a potential commuter bike for a while, but never got on one. But I have noticed other riders tend to...

    What's the one thing you think is Useless Junk on your Spyder?

    I have to say I kinda agree with this, along with some engineering problems.
